Answer: Option (A) and (D)

Explanation: Isostacy is the gravitational state of equilibrium in which a block sinks down due to the addition of materials and also the same block rises up if materials are eroded.

          In terms of our earth, the gravitational force is responsible for the sinking or down-pushing of the continents, and the bouyancy forces in the mantle is responsible for the uplifting of the continents.

A rabbit is moving in the positive x-direction at 1.10 m/s when it spots a predator and accelerates to a velocity of 10.9 m/s al
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

aₓ = 0 ,       ay = -6.8125 m / s²

Explanation:

This is an exercise that we can solve with kinematics equations.

Initially the rabbit moves on the x axis with a speed of 1.10 m / s and after seeing the predator acceleration on the y axis, therefore its speed on the x axis remains constant.

x axis

          vₓ = v₀ₓ = 1.10 m / s

          aₓ = 0

y axis

initially it has no speed, so v₀_y = 0 and when I see the predator it accelerates, until it reaches the speed of 10.6 m / s in a time of t = 1.60 s. let's calculate the acceleration

         v_{y}= v_{oy} -ay t

          ay = (v_{oy} -v_{y}) / t

          ay = (0 -10.9) / 1.6

          ay = -6.8125 m / s²

the sign indicates that the acceleration goes in the negative direction of the y axis

A sports car accelerates from rest for 5 seconds reaching a velocity of 23.0 m/s.
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

<h2>4.6 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's velocity and time taken can be found by using the formula

<h3>a =  \frac{v - u}{t}  \\</h3>

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

a is the acceleration

Since the body is from rest u = 0

From the question we have

a =  \frac{23 - 0}{5}  =  \frac{23}{5}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>4.6 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you

andreev551 [17]
<h2>Weight of astronaut 2450 miles above the Earth is 80.38 pounds</h2>

Explanation:

Given that gravitational force, F, between an object and the Earth is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the object and the center of the Earth.

             F=\frac{k}{r^2}

Where F is gravitational force  between an object and the Earth, r is the distance from the object and the center of the Earth and k is a constant.

Radius of Earth = 4000 miles

In case 1 an astronaut weighs 209 pounds on the surface of the Earth,

              209=\frac{k}{4000^2}\\\\k=3.344\times 10^9

Now we need to find weight of astronaut 2450 miles above the Earth    

              r = 4000 + 2450 = 6450 miles

               F=\frac{k}{6450^2}\\\\F=\frac{3.344\times 10^9}{6450^2}=80.38pounds

Weight of astronaut 2450 miles above the Earth is 80.38 pounds
