Suppose a major impact that produces a mass extinction takes place on earth once every 5 million years. suppose further that if such an event occurred today, you and most other humans would be killed (this would be true even if the human species as a whole survived). such impact events are random, and one could take place at any time. calculate the probability that such an impact will occur within the next 50 years (within your lifetime).

An equinox occurs when a. neither end of earth's axis is tilted toward or away from the sun. b. the north end of earth's axis is tilted away from the sun. c. the north end of earth's axis is tilted toward the sun. d. earth's axis is parallel to the sun's rays. select the best answer from the choices provided a b c d

Balloon a has charge q, and identical mass balloon b has charge 10q. you hang them from threads near each other. choose all of the statements with which you agree. check all that apply. a. a and b exert the same magnitude forces on each other. b. the force that a exerts on b is 10 times the force that b exerts on a. c. the angle between the thread supporting a and the vertical is < the angle between the thread supporting b and the vertical. d. the force that a exerts on b is 1/10 the force that b exerts on a.

Aflask with vinegar in it has a mass of 160 grams. a balloon with baking soda in it has a mass of 40 grams. the balloon is attached to the flask to seal the opening and the vinegar and baking soda mixes. the balloon inflates to a large volume. what will the total mass of the balloon and flask be after the balloon inflates? explain. a) less than 200 grams because the solid baking soda disappears. b) 200 grams, because all the atoms remain in the balloon or flask. c) more than 200 grams because the size of the balloon is so much larger. d) less than 200 grams because gases such as the one in the balloon are lighter than solids and liquids.
