Question:

Which of the following statements accurately describe the role of the sun and gravity in the water cycle on Earth?

Answer Choices:

  • A) The sun provides energy that causes water to evaporate from Earth's surface.
  • B) Gravity pulls precipitation down to Earth's surface, completing the cycle.
  • C) The sun's energy is responsible for causing gravity to act on water droplets.
  • D) Without the sun, water would not be able to condense into clouds.
  • E) Gravity helps in the formation of clouds by holding water vapor in place.
✅ Answer:
The sun provides energy that causes water to evaporate from Earth's surface.; Gravity pulls precipitation down to Earth's surface, completing the cycle.

💡 Explanation:

  • The sun's energy heats water in oceans, rivers, and lakes, causing it to evaporate into water vapor.
  • Gravity is responsible for pulling water back to Earth's surface as precipitation, ensuring the continuous cycling of water.
  • The sun does not directly influence gravity, and gravity does not hold water vapor in place; rather, it pulls precipitation down.

Question:

Estimate the value of the square root of 50 and explain how you determined your estimate. Then, place it on a number line between two consecutive whole numbers.

✅ Answer:

The square root of 50 is approximately 7.07. To estimate, recognize that 49 is a perfect square, and its square root is 7. Since 50 is slightly more than 49, the square root of 50 will be slightly more than 7. On a number line, 50 \sqrt{50} is between 7 and 8, closer to 7.

💡 Explanation:

  • To estimate 50 \sqrt{50} , identify perfect squares near 50: 49 (72 7^2 ) and 64 (82 8^2 ).

  • Since 50 is closer to 49, 50 \sqrt{50} will be closer to 7.

  • Calculating further, 50≈7.07 \sqrt{50} \approx 7.07 by approximation methods or a calculator.
