Answer:
D
Explanation:
I’m pretty sure it’s correct but I don’t really know. Just trying to pass science
<span>Given:
3,500 kilometers
Find:</span>
Years for two continents to collide = ?
<span>Solution:
We know that </span>typical motions of one plate relative to another
are 1 centimeter per year.
So first, we convert 3,500 km to cm.<span>
</span><span>
</span>
The solution would be like this for this specific problem:
1 km = 100,000 cm
3,500 km x 100,000 = 350,000,000 cm
Since we know that 1 cm = 1 year, then that means
350,000,000 cm is equivalent to 350,000,000 years.
Therefore, it would take 350 million years for two continents
that are 3500 kilometers apart to collide.
<span>
To add, </span>a phenomenon of the plate tectonics of Earth that occurs at
convergent boundaries is called the continental collision.
To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the conservation of the Momentum describing the inelastic collision of two bodies. By definition the collision between the two bodies is given as:
Where,
= Mass of each object
= Initial Velocity of Each object
= Final Velocity
Our values are given as
Replacing we have that
Therefore the the velocity of the 3220 kg car before the collision was 0.8224m/s
Answer:
α = 395 rad/s²
Explanation:
Main features of uniformly accelerated circular motion
A body performs a uniformly accelerated circular motion when its trajectory is a circle and its angular acceleration is constant (α = cte). In it the velocity vector is tangent at each point to the trajectory and, in addition, its magnitude varies uniformly.
There is tangential acceleration (at) and is constant.
at = α*R Formula (1)
where
α is the angular acceleration
R is the radius of the circular path
There is normal or centripetal acceleration that determines the change in direction of the velocity vector.
Data
R = 0.0600 m :blade radius
at = 23.7 m/s² : tangential acceleration of the blades
Angular acceleration of the blades (α)
We replace data in the formula (1)
at = α*R
23.7 = α*(0.06)
α = (23.7) / (0.06)
α = 395 rad/s²
