Answer:

The giant-impact theory is actually the preferred or current scientific hypothesis accepted for the Moon's origin.

Explanation:

The giant-impact theory is actually the preferred or current scientific hypothesis accepted for the Moon's origin. This appears that Moon evolved out of residue left over after a collision between Earth and Mars-sized celestial object around 4.5 billions year ago.

Sometimes the merging body is called Theia, named after the mythological Greek Titan that was Selene's mother, the Moon's goddess.

The earth and moon were created By a collision between two planetary objects Each five time the size of mars. Is the newest hypothesis.

John ( body mass= 65 kg) is taking off for a long jump . Horizontal accerleration ax is 5m/s^2 and vertical acceleration ay is 0

cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

(a) The horizontal ground reaction force $F_{g,x}=325\, N$

(b) The vertical ground reaction force $F_{g,y}=696\, N$

(c) The resultant ground reaction force $F_g=768\, N$

Explanation:

Given

John mass , m = 65 kg

Horizontal acceleration , $a_x= 5.0 \frac{m}{s^{2}}$

Vertical acceleration , $a_y=0.9 \frac{m}{s^{2}}$

(a) Using Newton's 2nd law in horizontal direction

$F_{g,x}=ma_x$

=> $F_{g,x}=65\times 5\, N=325\, N$

Thus the horizontal ground reaction force $F_{g,x}=325\, N$

(b) Using Newton's 2nd law in vertical direction

$F_{g,y}-mg=ma_y$

=> $F_{g,y}=mg+ma_y$

=> $F_{g,y}=65\times (9.81+0.9)\, N=696\, N$

Thus the vertical ground reaction force $F_{g,y}=696\, N$

$F_g=(F_{g,x}^{2}+F_{g,y}^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}}$

=> $F_g=(325^{2}+696^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}}\, N=768\, N$

=> $F_g=768\, N$

Thus the resultant ground reaction force $F_g=768\, N$

I will mark you as brainliest if you answer correctly

aleksklad [387]

(A) We can solve the problem by using Ohm's law, which states:
$V=IR$
where
V is the potential difference across the electrical device
I is the current through the device
R is its resistance
For the heater coil in the problem, we know $V=220 V$ and $R=220 \Omega$ , therefore we can rearrange Ohm's law to find the current through the device:
$I= \frac{V}{R}= \frac{220 V}{220 \Omega}=1 A$

(B) The resistance of a conductive wire depends on three factors. In fact, it is given by:
$R= \rho \frac{L}{A}$
where
$\rho$ is the resistivity of the material of the wire
L is the length of the wire
A is the cross-sectional area of the wire
Basically, we see that the longer the wire, the larger its resistance; and the larger the section of the wire, the smaller its resistance.

The first stage in the GAS model of stress is

Vladimir [108]

<span>The first stage in the Gas model of stress is alarm and mobilization. So the correct option in regards to the given question is option “d”. Hans Selye is the person that evolved this model and he has explained this model in complete details. He has broken down his model into three stages. The first stage involves alarm and mobilization. The second stage includes resistance. The third and the final stage include the exhaustion stage. These are the stages that an organism goes through to restore back the balance when stress is exerted from outside. </span>

Can someone help me wit hthis science question?

klemol [59]

Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

There is an increasing demand for materials and natural resources from a growing global population, especially those in more economically developed countries. The world's resources are being used up more quickly. The consumption of resources is spread unequally between MEDCs (more economically developed countries), who use more resources, and LEDCs (less economically developed countries), who use less.

The gap between the rich and poor is more evident when the resources are shared so unevenly and unfairly and natural resources like materials and natural energy cannot reach the demand of the people which can have consequences and be very difficult to manage. Having a lack of these materials in a country can result in prices going up for them, and the industry could be harder to work in because of a lack of materials.
