What is isostasy dependent on a balance between

Physics

Scorpion4ik [409]3 years ago

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.

Two loudspeakers emit sound waves along the x-axis. The sound has maximum intensity when the speakers are 20 cm apart. The sound
Sophie [7]

Answer:

a. Wavelength = λ = 20 cm

b. Next distance of maximum intensity will be 40 cm

Explanation:

a. The distance between the two speakers is 20cm. SInce the intensity is maximum which refers that we have constructive interference and the phase difference must be an even multiple of π and equivalent path difference is nλ.

Now when distance increases upto 30 cm between the speakers, the sound intensity becomes zero which means that there is destructive interference and equivalent path is now increased from nλ to nλ + λ/2.

This we get the equation:

(nλ + λ/2) - nλ = 30-20

λ/2 = 10

λ = 20 cm

b. at what distance, sound intensity will be maximum again.

For next point calculation for maximum sound intensity, the path difference must be increased (n+1) λ. The distance must increase by λ/2 from the point of zero intensity.

= 30 + λ/2

= 30 + 20/2

=30+10

=40 cm

Michael's house is 5.0 km away from his school. How long would it take him to go ti school, riding a bus, if its velocity is 25
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

12 mins

Explanation:

The distance covered is 5 km, divide this by 25 to get the fraction of an hour it takes. Doing this you get .2, times this by 60 min (1 hour) to get how many mins it takes

The escape speed from an object is v2 = 2GM/R, where M is the mass of the object, R is the object's starting radius, and G is th
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

Approximate escape speed = 45.3 km/s

Explanation:

Escape speed

        v=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}

Here we have

   Gravitational constant = G = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³ kg⁻¹ s⁻²

   R = 1 AU = 1.496 × 10¹¹ m

   M = 2.3 × 10³⁰ kg

Substituting

    v=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 2.3\times 10^{30}}{1.496\times 10^{11}}}=4.53\times 10^4m/s=45.3km/s

Approximate escape speed = 45.3 km/s

How do you think car makers can design cars to limit cell phone distractions?
Dafna11 [192]

I have two (2) brilliant ideas:

1). Inside the metal that the body of the car is made of, and also between the two sheets of glass that the windows are made of, install a thin layer of material that absorbs RF (radio-wave) energy . . . like the material in the glass window of your microwave oven.  Then, no radio waves from the cellular base station can get INTO the car, and no radio waves from your phone can get OUT of the car.  The phone can't make a connection to the cellular network, you can't make or receive calls, and you can't connect to Instagram or Brainly, so you might as well just turn it off and save your battery until next time you're outside your car.

2). Somewhere inside the car, like under the dash or in the glove box, install a teeny tiny radio receiver that can recognize the signals coming OUT of your phone.  Connect it to the car's electrical system so that when it hears signals from phones inside the car, it it shuts down the car's motor so you can't start or drive. The car only works when phones inside the car are either turned off or in Airplane Mode.

My ideas are so brilliant that I really should patent them, or copyright them, or whatever you do so that other people have to pay you to use your idea. But if you want to use them, that's OK.  Just go ahead. I won't mind.

One horse is pulling a 755 kg sled straight ahead applying a force of 1988 N. If the acceleration of the sled is 1.36 m/s2, what
Inessa [10]

Answer:

The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.13

Explanation:

Newton's second law states that the acceleration of an object is proportional to the net force on it, the factor of proportionality is the mass. So, we can express that law mathematically as:

\sum\overrightarrow{F}=m\overrightarrow{a} (1)

With F the net force, m the mass and a the acceleration of the object. In our case we're interested on what's happening to the sled, then we have to analyze the forces on it, those forces are the weight and the normal force on the vertical direction and the pulling force and frictional force in the horizontal direction. So, because (1) is a vector equation we can express that in their vertical (y) and horizontal (x) components:

F_y=ma_y (2)

F_x=ma_x (3)

On y we have that the acceleration is zero because the sled is not moving upward or downward, remember that the net force on y is the weight (W) pointing downward and the normal force pointing upward:

F_y=W+n=0

Following the convention that positive is upward and negative downward, W=mg=(755)(-9.81):

F_y=(755)(-9.81)+n=0

n=7406.55 N (4)

Now on the x direction we have the sum of the forces is the pulling force (T) and friction force (f)

F_x=F+f=ma_x

Choosing the direction where the horse is pulling F=1988N and the acceleration should be positive too, then:

1988+f=m(1.36)

f=(755)(1.36)-1988=-961.2 N

The negative sign means it's in the opposite direction the horse is pulling

The frictional force is related with the coefficient of kinetic friction in the next way:

|f|=\mu_k n

with μk the coefficient of kinetic friction, and n the normal force that we already found on (4), so we simply solve the last equation for μk:

\mu_k=\frac{|f|}{n}=\frac{961.2}{7406.55}=0.13
