Malika is writing an essay about the sun. below is the first paragraph in the essay. the sun is an average-size star that is located at the center of the solar system. this hot, glowing ball of gas has a diameter of 1,393,000 km. this means 109 earths would fit side by side across the diameter of the sun. at the surface, the sun’s temperature is about 550 degrees celsius. earth is located just under 150 million kilometers from the sun. malika quickly realizes this paragraph contains an error. which statement identifies the error?

the sun is a large star, not an average-size star.
the sun is not a glowing ball of gas—it is solid.
the sun’s surface temperature is about 5500 degrees celsius.
earth is located over 300 million kilometers from the sun.

The answer would be:

The Sun's surface temperature is about 5,500 degrees Celsius.

The surface of the Sun is about 5,778 Kelvin. If you want to be exact the sun is 5,505 degrees Celsius and that's just the surface. The corona gets even hotter reaching about 10 million degrees Celsius. The other information about the Sun is correct.

Explanation:

elly's long hair:

a. if the salon only takes cash, then this isn't the problem. it doesn't matter how much she has in her checking account.   she can't get a haircut until she has the cash.

b. if she has overdraft protection, then there's no problem.   she can go ahead and write a check that her account can't cover, then sometime later, pay the bank some outrageous usury for loaning her a few bucks for a few days, but with beautiful hair.

c. if elly has some principles, and doesn't want to write a bad check, then now she has a problem.   her desire for the new hairstyle is in conflict with her honesty and integrity.

d.   if the bank will not process a check she writes, then even if she had a million $$ in her account, she couldn't use any of it.   the amount she has in her account is not the problem.   and if i may suggest, she might as well close her checking account, and put the money where it'll work for her.   it's not doing her a bit of good in a checking account, since she can't write any checks.

justin can't pay the full balance:

a. he can't even handle the credit limit he has now.   under no circumstances should he ask for a higher limit.

b.   he can ask for the grace period to be extended.   but that's no solution, the bank will almost certainly refuse anyway, and there are much better options.   he knew the rules of his credit card when he started using it.

c.   he definitely should pay the interest on the balance, plus as much of the balance as he can cover at the same time.

d.   he definitely should pay the minimum otherwise they could shut down his card.   he should also pay as much more as he possibly can.   he should also remember the awkward situation he's in, stop buying stuff on credit that he can't afford, and avoid adding any more debt.

i'd say that justin's best best option isn't on this list of choices.   what he has to do:   pay as much as he can at least the minimum payment plus as much more as he can and then avoid adding more debt.

the order for strong to weak forces such as

strong nuclear force → electromegnetic force → weak nuclear force → gravitational force

the fundamental forces are those forces that act between to objects or element to make interactions. there are four types of fundamental forces such as strong and weak nuclear forces (due to protons and electrons), electromagnetic force (due to the motion of electrons) and gravitational force (due to orbital movement of the planet). if these forces are arranged on the basis of their maximum strength then the order is

strong nuclear force → electromegnetic force → weak nuclear force → gravitational force
