1.0 mi because as he has covered 1 the disrance of 1 m and then 1 m in north so he can go straight 1m north so the distance is actually 1m from the starting point

A uniform meter stick is hung at its center from a thin wire. It is twisted and oscillates with a period of 5 s. The meter stick
rewona [7]

Answer:

The new time period is  T_2 =  3.8 \  s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The period of oscillation is  T =  5 \ s

   The  new  length is  l_2  =  0.76  \ m

Let assume the original length was l_1 = 1 m

Generally the time period is mathematically represented as

         T  =  2 \pi   \sqrt{ \frac{ I }{ mgh } }

Now  I is the moment of inertia of the stick which is mathematically represented as

           I  =  \frac{m * l^2 }{12 }

So

        T  =  2 \pi   \sqrt{ \frac{  m * l^2 }{12 *   mgh } }

Looking at the above equation we see that

        T  \ \ \  \alpha  \ \ \  l

=>    \frac{ T_2 }{T_1}  =  \frac{l_2}{l_1}

=>    \frac{ T_2}{5} =  \frac{0.76}{1}

=>     T_2 =  3.8 \  s

In diving to a depth of 248 m, an elephant seal also moves 296 m due east of his starting point. What is the magnitude of the se
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

The displacement is 386.16m

Explanation:

A seal dives to a depth of 248m. To find displacement, we must calculate the resultant vectors which will give us the displacement

R= sqrt(vector1+vector2)

Since this is a right angle triangle

R= sqrt(248^2 + 296^2)

R= sqrt(149120)

R= 386.16m

Displacement = 386.16m

The data table shows some data related to the Sun and the planets in our solar system.

You have selected the correct answer and blobbed over it with your pencil.

I assume you must have looked at Saturn's average distance, found 1427,
divided that number by 6, got 237 and change, then looked at the others,
and found that 228 was the only one that's anywhere close.

How is heat transfer involved in the movement of tectonic plates?
Simora [160]

Mantle convection

Explanation:

The driver of moving plates is the mantle convection.

Convection is a heat transfer process that involves the movement of fluids from one place to another.

How does convection occur in the mantle?

  • Part of the mantle known as the asthenosphere is a hot liquid. It moves slowly and does not readily flow.
  • Over riding the asthenosphere is the brittle lithosphere made up of the upper mantle and the entirety of the crust.
  • The asthenosphere is at a higher temperature compared to the lithosphere on top.
  • In order to achieve stability and thermal equilibrium, the asthenosphere rises to the surface whereas the dense and cold lithosphere sinks down.
  • This way a convective cell is set up.
  • Hot materials rises to the surface because they are light whereas cold materials on the surface sinks into the asthenosphere.
  • Through this the plates moves.
