Concept explainers
Explain all answers clearly, using complete sentence and proper essay structure if needed. An asterisk (*) designates a quantitative problem, for which you should show all your work.
Looking for Evidence. In this first chapter, we have discussed the scientific story of the universe but have not yet discussed most of the evidence that backs it up. Choose one idea from this chapter—such as the idea that are billions of galaxies, that the universe was born in the Big Bang, or that we are “star stuff” — and briefly discuss the type of evidence you would like to see before accepting the idea. (Hint: It’s okay to look ahead in the book to see the evidence presented in later chapters.)

- Hello, part D was incorrect, and where does the six come from?? I confused on reading the grapharrow_forwardPlease show your solution and at the same time BOX the answers that corresponds to each blank on the question. Make sure to fill all the blanks. Thank you. STRICKLY FOLLOW THIS: Calculated Answers Express your answers without rounding off and without scientific notation unless instructed otherwise. Multiple Blanks Write powers or subscript as is. Ex: Use b2 if you mean b2 or b2 Spell out Greek letters. Ex: Use pi if you mean greek letter pi Write answers without spaces. Ex: Use 2epsilon0r3 if you mean 3e0r3 Write fractions with a slash. Ex: Use 1/2arrow_forwardOn this situation for science I do not understand. Under the write section is what we're supposed to be including. So down below I will show you what it is asking, and what it wants me to write 2 paragraphs about can you please help me with a deep explanation, because I need help asap because it's due at 11:59 tonight.arrow_forward
- Please show your complete solution and write your answer clearly and readable. Thank you.arrow_forwardSee the screenshot uploaded. Answer in a step-by-step format, add diagrams, and detailed side notes for a better understanding Ps. Please answer on paper Thank you!arrow_forwardThink of our Milky Way Galaxy as a flat circular disk of diameter 100,000 light-years. Suppose we are one of 1000 civilizations, randomly distributed through the disk, interested in communicating via radio waves. How far away in light years would the nearest such civilization be from us on average? Show your working. (Hint: Begin by calculating the area of the disk. Find the area of one of a 1,000 squares. Consider the separation of the centres of two adjacent squares.)arrow_forward
- Please show the complete solution and write your answer clearly and readable.arrow_forwardPlease write out our solutions clearly with all the steps, final answer, and units. Draw pictures and labeled diagrams.arrow_forward1. What do you think are the advantages and disadvantages of using points near the corners of aphoto for scale computations?2. Would you consider the aerial photo as a map substitute than a topo map? Why?3. Aside from using the topographic map, suggest other means of determining the scale of an aerialphoto. Cite your references if there are any.arrow_forward
- Please help me with all the parts, and double and triple check your answers, previous tutors got it wrong there are 2 parts attached as 2 screenshotsarrow_forwardPlease answer the question and its subquestions entirely! This is one question with two subquestions. According to the official Bartleby guidelines, I am alowed to have up to two subquestion! 1) When an ice-skater spins and increases her rotation rate by pulling her arms and leg in, what happens to her kinetic energy? It stays the same. It increases. It decreases. a) A 0.400 kg mass, sitting on a horizontal frictionless surface, is attached to the end of a 0.750 m string. It is whirled around in a circular horizontal path. If the maximum tension that the string can withstand is 450 N, then what maximum velocity can the mass have if the string is not to break? 375 m/s 22.4 m/s 19.4 m/s 29.0 m/s b) A grinding wheel with a moment of inertia of 2 kg-m 2 has a 2.50 N-m torque applied to it. What is its final kinetic energy 10 seconds after starting from rest? 312 J 237 J 156 J 106 Jarrow_forwardplease provide illustrationa and explanation. thank you!arrow_forward
