The relative ages of the moon's maria and highlands can be determined through the following:

Radioactive dating
Crater density
Lava flows.

<h3>What is a Moon maria?</h3>

This is referred to as the early geologic units of the moon which arose from asteroid impact and subsequent volcanic activity.

The ages can be measured using techniques such as radioactive dating and crater density.

A uniform plank of mass 10kg and length 10m rests on two supports, A and B as shown. A boy of weight 500N stands at a distance o

kifflom [539]

Answer:

U² = 142.86 N

U¹ = 357.14 N

Explanation:

Taking summation of the moment about point A, we get the following equilibrium equation: (taking clockwise direction as positive)

$W(2\ m) - U^2(7\ m) = 0$

where,

W = weight of boy = 500 N

U² = reaction ay B = ?

Therefore,

$(500\ N)(2\ m)-(U^2)(7\ m)=0\\U^2=\frac{1000\ Nm}{7\ m}\\$

Now, taking summation of forces on the plank. Taking upward direction as positive, for equilibrium position:

$W-U^1-U^2=0\\500\ N - 142.86\ N = U^1\\$

By means of a rope whose mass is negligible, two blocks are suspended over a pulley, as the drawing shows, with m1 = 12.1 kg and

puteri [66]

Answer:

14.8 kg

Explanation:

We are given that

$m_1=43.7 kg$

$m_2=12.1 kg$

$g=9.8 m/s^2$

$a=\frac{1}{2}(9.8)=4.9 m/s^2$

We have to find the mass of the pulley.

According to question

$T_2-m_2 g=m_2 a$

$T_2=m_2a+m_2g=m_2(a+g)=12.1(9.8+4.9)=177.87 N$

$T_1=m_1(g-a)=43.7(9.8-4.9)=214.13 N$

Moment of inertia of pulley= $I=\frac{1}{2}Mr^2$

$(T_2-T_1)r=I(-\alpha)=\frac{1}{2}Mr^2(\frac{-a}{r})=\frac{1}{2}Mr(-4.9)$

Where $\alpha=\frac{a}{r}$

$(177.87-214.13)=-\frac{1}{2}(4.9)M$

$-36.26=-\frac{1}{2}(4.9)M$

$M=\frac{36.26\times 2}{4.9}=14.8 kg$

Hence, the mass of the pulley=14.8 kg

according to Newton's 1st law, in what direction Will an object continue to move if no other outside force acts upon it

asambeis [7]

Answer: <em>An object at rest remains at rest, or if in motion, remains in motion at a constant velocity unless acted on by a net external force.</em>

Explanation: meaning, an object will continue in its same direction until stopped or acted upon by another force.

What are the effects of forces to the motion of an object?

melamori03 [73]

Forces affect how objects move. They may cause motion; they may also slow, stop, or change the direction of motion of an object that is already moving. Since force cause changes in the speed or direction of an object, we can say that forces cause changes in velocity. Remember that acceleration is a change in velocity.
