so classmate states that continental drift could not be possible because it would take far too much force to move tectonic plate

s. Describe the hypothesis scientists use to explain the movement of tectonic plates. Which hypothesis do many scientists think may explain the great force needed to move plates?

Any student who states that tectonic plates are too massive to move doesn't understand how much heat exists in the center of the earth. This heat is capable of moving the most massive of plates.

A 269-turn solenoid is 102 cm long and has a radius of 2.3 cm. It carries a current of 3.9 A. What is the magnetic field inside
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Magnitude of the magnetic field inside the solenoid near its centre is 1.293 x 10⁻³ T

Explanation:

Given;

number of turns of solenoid, N = 269 turn

length of the solenoid, L = 102 cm = 1.02 m

radius of the solenoid, r = 2.3 cm = 0.023 m

current in the solenoid, I = 3.9 A

Magnitude of the magnetic field inside the solenoid near its centre is calculated as;

B = \frac{\mu_o NI}{l} \\\\

Where;

μ₀ is permeability of free space = 4π x 10⁻⁷ m/A

B = \frac{4\pi*10^{-7} *269*3.9}{1.02} \\\\B = 1.293 *10^{-3} \ T

Therefore, magnitude of the magnetic field inside the solenoid near its centre is 1.293 x 10⁻³ T

The intensity level is 65 db at a distance 5.00 m from a barking dog. What would be a reasonable estimate for the intensity leve
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

68 db

Explanation:

Since now instead of one two dogs are barking simultaneously close to each other, therefore we take n =2.

Ignoring interference effects, the barking of two dogs result in a higher level of intensity which is given by,

β(db)=10×㏒(2)

=3 db

So, a reasonable estimate for the raised Intensity Level is: 65db+3db = 68db
