Nuclear energy is released during: fission. radioactive decay. man-induced splitting of atoms. Match the basic components of a nuclear reactor with their descriptions. 1. slows down neutrons -> moderator. 2. absorb emitted neutrons -> control rods.

A truck traveled 400 meters north in 80 seconds and then it traveled 300 meters east in 70 seconds. The magnitude of the average

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

3.3m/s

Explanation:

You first get the total time (80 + 70 = 150s).

Then you would find the displacement of the truck. To do that you would do component method (vector addition), so since its a right triangle (North and East), displacement is 400^2 + 300^2 = d^2.

d= 500m.

So now that you have displacement and time, you can find the velocity:

v=d/t

v=500/150

v=3.3

A scientist observes rock masses that have moved past each other in opposite horizontal directions. Which feature

Reil [10]

Answer:

C. strike-slip fault

Explanation:

The scientist must have observed a strike- slip fault.

A fault is an evidence of brittle deformation of the crust in the presence of applied stress on earth materials. Here, the earth material is the rock subjected to tension.

Where a fault occurs, there must have been movement between two blocks of rocks. The direction of movement helps us to delineate the fault type.

When two blocks moves past each other horizontally, it is a strike-slip fault like rubbing your palms together.
When a block moves in the direction of the dip, it forms a dip-slip fault which results in a fault-block mountain characterized by graben and horst systems.

Option A, Plateau is a table landform usually a mountain with flat peak.

Option B is a bowl shaped stratigraphic pattern in which the youngest sequence is at the core of the strata or a fold.

So, the most fitting option is C, a strike-slip fault.

A box weighing 52.4 N is sliding on a rough horizontal floor with a constant friction force of magnitude LaTeX: ff. The box's in

german

Answer:

The magnitude of the friction force exerted on the box is 2.614 newtons.

Explanation:

Since the box is sliding on a rough horizontal floor, then it is decelerated solely by friction force due to the contact of the box with floor. The free body diagram of the box is presented herein as attachment. The equation of equilbrium for the box is:

$\Sigma F = -f = m\cdot a$ (Eq. 1)

Where:

$f$ - Kinetic friction force, measured in newtons.

$m$ - Mass of the box, measured in kilograms.

$a$ - Acceleration experimented by the box, measured in meters per square second.

By applying definitions of weight ( $W = m\cdot g$ ) and uniform accelerated motion ( $v = v_{o}+a\cdot t$ ), we expand the previous expression:

$-f = \left(\frac{W}{g} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{v-v_{o}}{t}\right)$

And the magnitude of the friction force exerted on the box is calculated by this formula:

$f = -\left(\frac{W}{g} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{v-v_{o}}{t}\right)$ (Eq. 1b)

Where:

$W$ - Weight, measured in newtons.

$g$ - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

$v_{o}$ - Initial speed, measured in meters per second.

$v$ - Final speed, measured in meters per second.

$t$ - Time, measured in seconds.

If we know that $W = 52.4\,N$ , $g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ , $v_{o} = 1.37\,\frac{m}{s}$ , $v = 0\,\frac{m}{s}$ and $t = 2.8\,s$ , the magnitud of the kinetic friction force exerted on the box is:

$f = -\left(\frac{52.4\,N}{9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} } \right)\cdot \left(\frac{0\,\frac{m}{s}-1.37\,\frac{m}{s} }{2.8\,s} \right)$

$f = 2.614\,N$

The magnitude of the friction force exerted on the box is 2.614 newtons.

When you turn brownie mix into brownies is that a physical change?

kotegsom [21]

No because for example you get a brownie mix and you want to make them well you put all of the mixture in the blender and you finish making them. Well now the brownies are done. well are they still the brownie mix?
