Well,

Logically, the deeper we go, the hotter it will get.

It turns out that the innermost part of the lithosphere is the hottest, while the outermost part of the lithosphere is the hottest (suprise!).

Option C is correct.

A baseball pitcher throws a baseball horizontally at a linear speed of 49.4 m/s. Before being caught, the baseball travels a hor

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

$v = 3.61 m/s$

Explanation:

As we know that ball travels horizontal distance of 24.7 m with uniform speed 49.4 m/s

so we will have

$t = \frac{x}{v_x}$

$t = \frac{24.7}{49.4}$

$t = 0.5 s$

now in the same time ball is turned by angle

$\theta = 52.7 rad$

now we know that

$\theta = \omega t$

$52.7 = \omega (0.5)$

$\omega = 105.4 rad/s$

now the tangential speed of a point at equator is given as

$v = r\omega$

$v = 0.0343(105.4)$

$v = 3.61 m/s$

If the Earth and distant stars were stationary (motionless) in space, what would we observe about the wavelength from these star

torisob [31]

There's no such thing as "stationary in space". But if the distance
between the Earth and some stars is not changing, then (A) wavelengths
measured here would match the actual wavelengths emitted from these
stars. 

If a star is moving toward us in space, then (A) Wavelengths measured
would be shorter than the actual wavelengths emitted from that star.

In order to decide what's actually happening, and how that star is moving,
the trick is: How do we know the actual wavelengths the star emitted ?

The position-time graph for a bug crawling along a line is shown in item 4 below. Determine whether the velocity is positive, ne

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer: The velocity at different marked time points are given as

t1 = -

t2 = +

t3 = +

t4 = -

t5 = 0

Explanation:

The slope of the tangent of the curve indicates the instantaneous velocity. So if the slope of the tangent is positive, that Is, the tangent makes a positive angle (above the horizontal axis) with the horizontal

axis, then the velocity at this point is positive, and if the slope of the tangent is negative, that is the tangent makes a negative angle with the horizontal axis (below the horizontal axis), then the velocity at this point is negative.

When the tangent of the line is parallel to the horizontal axis, the velocity is 0.

From the position-time graph attached, the sign on the instantaneous velocity for each time marked on the graph is given below

t1 = -

t2 = +

t3 = +

t4 = -

t5 = 0

QED!
