A 6.0 g marble is fired vertically upward using a spring gun. The spring must be compressed 9.4 cm if the marble is to just reac

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

a) $\Delta U_{g} = 12.945\,J$ , b) $\Delta U_{k} = 12.945\,J$ , c) $k = 2930.059\,\frac{N}{m}$

Explanation:

a) The change in the gravitational potential energy of the marble-Earth system is:

$\Delta U_{g} = (0.06\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}\right)\cdot (22\,m)$

$\Delta U_{g} = 12.945\,J$

b) The change in the elastic potential energy of the spring is equal to the change in the gravitational potential energy, then:

$\Delta U_{k} = 12.945\,J$

c) The spring constant of the gun is:

$\Delta U_{k} = \frac{1}{2} \cdot k \cdot x^{2}$

$k = \frac{2\cdot \Delta U_{k}}{x^{2}}$

$k = \frac{2\cdot (12.945\,J)}{(0.094\,m)^{2}}$

$k = 2930.059\,\frac{N}{m}$

Identify evidence that supports the theories of continental drift and plate tectonics. put responses in the correct input to ans

GenaCL600 [577]

The evidence that supports continental drift and plate tectonics includes different fossils, the same rocks and the shapes of continents that fit together.

<h3>What is continental drift?</h3>

Continental drift is a theory that states continents once were part of one big landmass known as Pangea.

Nowadays, the theory of continental drift proposed by Alfred Wegener has been replaced by plate tectonics.

In conclusion, the evidence that supports continental drift and plate tectonics includes fossils, the same rocks and the shapes of continents that fit together.
