GACE science/math 088 questions and answers already passed A group of students measured the boiling point of three different samples of pure water. Each measurement was made by a different student using the same thermometer. Their measurements were 94oC, 99oC, and 104oC. Which of the following most likely accounts for the discrepancy in the measurements? The students misread the markings on the thermometer. Option (B) is correct. The error that most likely accounts for the discrepanc...

Io experiences tidal heating primarily because __________. correct answers Io's elliptical orbit causes the tidal force on Io to vary as it orbits Jupiter. As you learned in Part A, Io's elliptical orbit is necessary to its tidal heating. This elliptical orbit, in turn, is a result of the orbital resonance among Io, Europa, and Ganymede. This orbital resonance causes Io to have a more elliptical orbit than it would otherwise, because __________. correct answers Io periodically passes Europa...
