Answer: c)how far the object is from the light source
              d)the size of the screen

The size of the shadow depends on the distance of the source of light and on the angle at which the light rays fall on the object. If the source of light is closer to the object, a larger shadow is formed than when the source of light is far from the object.

The angle at which a light strikes an object affects the size and shape of its shadow. Shadows are longer when the light source is at a low angle (side on) and shorter when the light source is at a higher angle (overhead).

The position of the light source can change the size and shape of a shadow. A good example would be, when we are outside on a sunny day, we can see how our shadows change throughout the day. The Sun's position in the sky affects the length of the shadow.

Explain how water circulates from deep oceans to the surface.
Alexxandr [17]
"These deep-ocean currents are driven by differences in the water's density, which is controlled by temperature (thermo) and salinity (haline). This process is known as thermohaline circulation. In the Earth's polar regions ocean watergets very cold, forming sea ice." this is what I found...

Can tectonic plates switch places with other tectonic plates, Im generally curious
Bingel [31]

Answer:

Earth's crust, called the lithosphere, consists of 15 to 20 moving tectonic plates. The heat from radioactive processes within the planet's interior causes the plates to move, sometimes toward and sometimes away from each other. This movement is called plate motion, or tectonic shift.

The objects listed are placed at the top of a ramp and roll down to the bottom without slipping. Assuming that there is no air r
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Explanation:

For each object, the initial potential energy is converted to rotational energy and translational energy:

PE = RE + KE

mgh = ½ Iω² + ½ mv²

For the marble (a solid sphere), I = ⅖ mr².

For the basketball (a hollow sphere), I = ⅔ mr².

For the manhole cover (a solid cylinder), I = ½ mr².

For the wedding ring (a hollow cylinder), I = mr².

If we say k is the coefficient in each case:

mgh = ½ (kmr²) ω² + ½ mv²

For rolling without slipping, ωr = v:

mgh = ½ kmv² + ½ mv²

gh = ½ kv² + ½ v²

2gh = (k + 1) v²

v² = 2gh / (k + 1)

The smaller the value of k, the higher the velocity.  Therefore:

marble > manhole cover > basketball > wedding ring

The collision between a hammer and a nail can be considered to be approximately elastic. estimate the kinetic energy acquired by
Setler [38]

Here we can use momentum conservation as in this type of collision there is no external force on it

m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1 v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}

now here we can say

m_1 = 10 g

v_{1i} = 0

m_2 = 550 g

v_{2i} = 3.5 m/s

now here we can say

10*0 + 550 * 3.5 = 10 v_{1f} + 550 v_{2f}

192.5 = v_{1f} + 55 v_{2f}

now by coefficient of restitution

for elastic collision we know that e = 1

v_{2f} - v_{1f} = e(v_{1i} - v_{2i})

v_{2f} - v_{1f} = 0 - 3.5

now by solving the two equation

56v_{2f} = 189

v_{2f} = 3.375 m/s

also we know that

v_{1f} = v_{2f} + 3.5 = 3.375 + 3.5 = 6.875 m/s

so final speed of the nail is 6.875 m/s
