Geological evidence based on several radiometric techniques has provided a scientifically well-accepted age for the Earth. Repre

sent that age of the Earth as the 100-yard length of a football field, and any time interval can be represented as some distance on the field. (So something that lasted one-tenth of the age of the Earth would be ten yards, and something that lasted one-half of the age of the Earth would be fifty yards.) On this scale, the time from when dinosaur extinction made space for large mammals, until today, would be represented by how far on the football field?
a. A little over 1 yard.
b. Over 90 yards.
c. 60 yards.
d. Over 80 yards.
e. 50 yards.

STALIN [3.7K]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>This term shows the </u><u>mass of the space shuttle</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

We know that the mass of the Earth is 5.972 × 10^24 kg. Similarly the sum of  mass of earth and the mass of shuttle must be a greater number as compared to the number given. It simply means that the mass of earth is itself 5.972 × 10^24 kg and the value given is 3 × 105 kg so it is obvious that if was the sum then it must be greater than the mass of earth. Therefore we can say that this not the mass of earth, neither the sum of mass of earth and shuttle, but this is only the mass of space shuttle which is the last multiple choice.

When two resistors are wired in series with a 12 V battery, the current through the battery is 0.33 A. When they are wired in pa
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

If R₂=25.78 ohm, then R₁=10.58 ohm

If R₂=10.57 then R₁=25.79 ohm

Explanation:

R₁ = Resistance of first resistor

R₂ = Resistance of second resistor

V = Voltage of battery = 12 V

I = Current = 0.33 A (series)

I = Current = 1.6 A (parallel)

In series

\text{Equivalent resistance}=R_{eq}=R_1+R_2\\\text {From Ohm's law}\\V=IR_{eq}\\\Rightarrow R_{eq}=\frac{12}{0.33}\\\Rightarrow R_1+R_2=36.36\\ Also\ R_1=36.36-R_2

In parallel

\text{Equivalent resistance}=\frac{1}{R_{eq}}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}\\\Rightarrow {R_{eq}=\frac{R_1R_2}{R_1+R_2}

\text {From Ohm's law}\\V=IR_{eq}\\\Rightarrow R_{eq}=\frac{12}{1.6}\\\Rightarrow \frac{R_1R_2}{R_1+R_2}=7.5\\\Rightarrow \frac{R_1R_2}{36.36}=7.5\\\Rightarrow R_1R_2=272.72\\\Rightarrow(36.36-R_2)R_2=272.72\\\Rightarrow R_2^2-36.36R_2+272.72=0

Solving the above quadratic equation

\Rightarrow R_2=\frac{36.36\pm \sqrt{36.36^2-4\times 272.72}}{2}

\Rightarrow R_2=25.78\ or\ 10.57\\ If\ R_2=25.78\ then\ R_1=36.36-25.78=10.58\ \Omega\\ If\ R_2=10.57\ then\ R_1=36.36-10.57=25.79\Omega

∴ If R₂=25.78 ohm, then R₁=10.58 ohm

If R₂=10.57 then R₁=25.79 ohm

How much heat is released when 432 g of water cools down from 71'c to 18'c?
maria [59]
The heat released by the water when it cools down by a temperature difference \Delta T is
Q=mC_s \Delta T
where
m=432 g is the mass of the water
C_s = 4.18 J/g^{\circ}C is the specific heat capacity of water
\Delta T =71^{\circ}C-18^{\circ}C=53^{\circ} is the decrease of temperature of the water

Plugging the numbers into the equation, we find
Q=(432 g)(4.18 J/g^{\circ}C)(53^{\circ}C)=9.57 \cdot 10^4 J
and this is the amount of heat released by the water.
