What composes about 71% of Earth's outermost layer?
A
oceanic crust
B
asthenosphere
С
lithosphere
D
continental crust

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A. oceanic crust

Explanation:

I remember that the ocean is said to cover 71% of the Earth's surface. If you look at a globe, notice that most all the surface is blue like the ocean.

One other note: the surface is the Earth's outermost layer. Think of it this way: surface implies the top of something, something exposed to the outside.

Therefore, the answer is A. Hope this helps you understand the question more! Have a great day, 'kay?

Answers

Answer:

-6,329.5Joules

Explanation:

Complete question:

Sally applies a horizontal force of 462N with a rope to drag a wooden crate across a floor with a constant speed the rope tied to the crate is pulled at an angle of 56.0degree and sally moves the crate 24.5m. What work is done by the floor through the force of friction between the floor and crate.

Work done = Fd cos theta

F is the horizontal force

d is the distance covered

theta angle of inclination

Substituting into the formula

Workdone  = 462(24.5)cos 56

Workdone = 11,319(0.5592)

Workdone = 6,329.5Joules

Hence the workdone by sally is 6,329.5Joules

The work done by friction will be opposite the work done by sally, hence work done by the floor through force of friction between the floor and the crate is -6,329.5Joules

An electric vehicle starts from rest and accelerates at a rate of 2.3 m/s2 in a straight line until it reaches a speed of 29 m/s. The vehicle then slows at a constant rate of 1.5 m/s2 until it stops. (a) How much time elapses from start to stop

Answers

Answer:

t = 12.6 seconds

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial velocity, u = 0

Acceleration of an electric vehicle, a = 2.3 m/s²

Final velocity, v = 29 m/s

We need to find the time elapses from start to stop. The acceleration of an object is given by the relation as follows :

[tex]a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}\\\\t=\dfrac{29-0}{2.3}\\\\t=12.6\ s[/tex]

So, 12.6 seconds is elapsed from start to stop.

What will be true of the moon’s gravitational pull on the spacecraft?

It will decrease.

It will increase.
It will repel the spacecraft.
It will remain the same.

Answers

Answer:

it will  decrease

Explanation:

According to the law of universal gravitation, the gravitational force exerted by the moon on the spacecraft is equal to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them. Therefore, as the spacecraft moves away, its distance increases and the force of attraction exerted by the moon decreases.

Each tire on a car has a radius of 0.330 m and is rotating with an angular speed of 15.6 revolutions/s. Find the linear speed v of the car, assuming that the tires are not slipping against the ground.

Answers

Answer:

v = 32.345 m/s

Explanation:

given data

radius r = 0.330 m

angular speed = 15.6 revolutions/s

solution

we will get here linear speed v, that is express as

v = r × w        .....................1

here w = 17.5 × 2 × π    radians

so now put value in eq1

v = 0.330 × 15.6× 2 × π

v = 32.345 m/s

Two ropes are connected to a 200 kg dinghy. Two cousins each take one rope and pull. When the cousins pull in the same direction, the dinghy accelerates at a rate of 1.31 m/s2 to the east. If they pull in opposite directions, the dinghy has an acceleration of 0.526 m/s2 to the west. Assume the ropes are horizontal, and ignore any other horizontal forces acting on the dinghy. What is the magnitude of the force each cousin exerts on the dinghy

Answers

Answer:

The magnitude of the force each cousin exerts on the dinghy is 183.6 N and 78.4 N.

Explanation:

When the cousins pull in the same direction we have:

[tex] F_{1} + F_{2} = ma_{e} [/tex]   (1)        

Where:

F₁ and F₂ are the forces exerted by the two boys.

m: is the mass of the dinghy = 200 kg

[tex]a_{e}[/tex]: is the acceleration in the east direction

When the cousins pull in opposite directions we have:

[tex] F_{1} - F_{2} = ma_{w} [/tex]   (2)            

By adding equation (1) and (2):                                              

[tex] 2F_{1} = m(a_{e} + a_{w}) [/tex]          

[tex] F_{1} = \frac{200 kg(1.31 m/s^{2} + 0.526 m/s^{2})}{2} = 183.6 N [/tex]    

Now, by entering F₁ into equation (1) we can find F₂:    

[tex] F_{2} = ma_{e} - F_{1} = 200kg*1.31 m/s^{2} - 183.6 N = 78.4 N [/tex]

Therefore, the magnitude of the force each cousin exerts on the dinghy is 183.6 N and 78.4 N.

A wall clock has a minute hand with a length of 0.46 m and an hour hand with a length of 0.24 m. Take the center of the clock as the origin, and use a Cartesian coordinate system with the positive x axis pointing to 3 o'clock and the positive y axis pointing to 12 o'clock. Write the vector that describes the displacement of a fly if it quickly goes from the tip of the minute hand to the tip of the hour hand at 3:00 P.M. (Let vector D represents the displacement of the fly.)

Answers

Answer:

the vector that describes the displacement of a fly if it quickly goes from the tip of the minute hand to the tip of the hour hand at 3:00 P.M is ; { 0.24 m(i) - 0.46 m(j) }

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

as illustrated in the image below,

3:00 pm means

the hour hand is on 3 i.e along x-axis

while the minute hand is on 12 i.e along y-axis

so Displacement will be;

D = ( 0.24 + 0i) - ( 0 + 0.46j )

D = { 0.24 m(i) - 0.46 m(j) }

Therefore, the vector that describes the displacement of a fly if it quickly goes from the tip of the minute hand to the tip of the hour hand at 3:00 P.M is ; { 0.24 m(i) - 0.46 m(j) }

What must the charge (sign and magnitude) of a particle of mass 1.48 g be for it to remain stationary when placed in a downward-directed electric field of magnitude 640 N/C

Answers

Answer:

[tex]q=-2.26\times 10^{-5}\ C[/tex]

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a particle, m = 1.48 g = 0.00148 kg

The electric field, E = 640 N/C

We need to find the charge of the particle when placed in a downward-directed electric field.

The force of gravity is balanced by the electric force such that,

mg = qE

Where

q is the charge of the particle

[tex]q=\dfrac{mg}{E}\\\\q=\dfrac{0.00148\times 9.8}{640}\\\\q=2.26\times 10^{-5}\ C[/tex]

q must be negative, the force must be upward (opposite direction of the electric field).

1. In calculating the work W necessary to stretch a spring from its natural length of 8 centimeters to a length of 12 centimeters, we need some more information about the spring. There are two distinct kinds of information, each of which separately would provide the necessary assistance so we could find W. Describe what the two additional kinds of information are.

Answers

Answer:

* displacement from equilibrium position

* The spring constant,

Explanation:

The work done by a spring is two times the expressions

         W = ∫ F. dx

         

in a spring the force is given by hooke's law

          F = - k Δx

we substitute

         W = - k ∫ x dx cos θ

In the case of the spring, the displacement is in the same direction of work, therefore the angle is zero and the cosine is equal to 1

we integrate

           W = ½ k Δx²

we can see that we need two parts to calculate the work

* displacement from equilibrium position

          Δx = 12 -8 = 4 cm

* The spring constant, this constant can be found from the displacement measurements as a function of the applied force.

At the instant the traffic light turns green, an automobile starts with a constant acceleration a of 2.70 m/s2. At the same instant a truck, traveling with a constant speed of 9.50 m/s, overtakes and passes the automobile. (a) How far beyond the traffic signal will the automobile overtake the truck

Answers

Answer:

66.85 m

Explanation:

We are given that

Acceleration ,a=[tex]2.7m/s^2[/tex]

Speed of truck, v=9.5 m/s

We have to find the distance beyond which the traffic signal will the automobile overtake the truck.

Initial speed of automobile, u=0

We know that

[tex]s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2[/tex]

Using the formula

[tex]s=0+\frac{1}{2}(27)t^2=\frac{27}{2}t^2[/tex]

For constant speed

Acceleration, a=0

Again

[tex]s=vt+0=9.5t[/tex]

[tex]9.5t=\frac{27}{2}t^2[/tex]

[tex]t=\frac{9.5\times 2}{2.7}=7.037s[/tex]

Substitute the value of t

[tex]x=9.5(7.037)=66.85m[/tex]

Hence, the distance beyond which the traffic signal will the automobile overtake the truck=66.85 m

force when the distance between the two is increased to four times the distance?

Answers

The gravitational  force : 3.125 N

Further explanation

Given

F₁ = 50 N

Required

F₂

Solution

Newton's Gravity Law:  

[tex]\rm F=G.\dfrac{m_1.m_2}{r^2}[/tex]

with F = gravitational force,  

G = gravitational constant,  

m1, m2 = mass of object,  

r = distance between two objects.  

The value of m and G are the same , so :

F₁ ≈ 1/r₁²

The distance between the two is increased to four times:

r₂ = 4r₁

F₂ = 1/(4r₁)²

F₂ = 1/16r₁²

F₂ = F₁ x 1/16

F₂ = 50 : 16

F₂ = 3.125 N

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

(70.0 kg) (3.0 m/s) + (2.0 kg) (3.0 m/s) = (70.0 kg) (3.1 m/s) + (2.0 kg) v

210 kg m/s + 6 kg m/s = 217 kg m/s + (2.0 kg) v

-1 kg m/s = (2.0 kg) v

v = -0.5 m/s
