A geologic event causes changes to the physical makeup of a particular place and occurs _____.
babymother [125]

A geologic event causes changes to the physical makeup of a particular place and occurs slowly.

Geological events are what causes numerous changes and phenomena on the Earth's surface. Examples of these events include cliff erosion, volcanic eruption, or sedimentation at a mouth of a river.

Geological processes are extremely slow. However, because of the immense lengths of time involved, huge physical changes do occur - mountains are created and destroyed, continents form, break up and move over the surface of the Earth, coastlines change and rivers and glaciers erode huge valleys.

Geological events are both classified as internal and external. This means that these events occur both in the Earth's surface and interior.

An orbiting satellite can become charged by the photoelectric effect when sunlight ejects electrons from its outer surface. Sate
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

the longest wavelength of incident sunlight that can eject an electron from the platinum is 233 nm

Explanation:

Given data

Φ = 5.32 eV

to find out

the longest wavelength

solution

we know that

hf = k(maximum) +Ф   ...............1

here we consider k(maximum ) will be zero because photon wavelength max when low photon energy

so hf = 0

and hc/ λ = +Ф

so λ = hc/Ф  ................2

now put value hc = 1240 ev nm and Φ = 5.32 eV

so hc = 1240 / 5.32

hc = 233 nm

the longest wavelength of incident sunlight that can eject an electron from the platinum is 233 nm

The total consumption of electrical energy in the United States is about 1.0 1019 joules per year.
dexar [7]

Answer:

a) 316880878140.2895 Joules

b) 1056.26 Joules

c) 372.80103310622 km²

Explanation:

Energy consumption

E=\frac{P}{t}\\\Rightarrow E=\frac{1\times 10^{19}}{365.25\times 24\times 60\times 60}\\\Rightarrow E=316880878140.2895\ W

Average rate of electrical energy consumption is 316880878140.2895 Joules

Total population = 300 million

E=\frac{316880878140.2895}{300\times 10^6}\\\Rightarrow E=1056.26\ J

Each person consumes 1056.26 Joules.

Efficiency = 0.85

Power from Sun

0.85\times 1000=850\ W/m^2

Area

\frac{316880878140.2895}{850}=372801033.10622\ m^2

Converting to km²

372801033.10622=\frac{372801033.10622}{1000\times 1000}=372.80103310622\ km^2

Area required to collect the electrical energy used in the United States is 372.80103310622 km²

A car is moving 14.4 m/s. It decelerates at -1.55 m/s^2 for 4.26 s. It then accelerates at 1.83 m/s^2 until it reaches 11.8 m/s.
Aleonysh [2.5K]

The total time is 6.45 s

Explanation:

The motion of the car is a uniformly accelerated motion, so we can use suvat equations.

In the first part,

u_1 = 14.4 m/s (initial velocity)

a_1 = -1.55 m/s^2 (acceleration)

t_1=4.26 s (time of the first part)

So, we can find the velocity of the car after the first part, by using

v_1 = u_1 +a_1 t_1 =14.4+(-1.55)(4.26)=7.8 m/s

This is therefore the initial velocity of the second part:

u_2 = v_1 = 7.8 m/s

a_2 = 1.83 m/s^2 (acceleration in the second part)

v_2 = 11.8 m/s (final velocity)

And therefore,

v_2 = u_2 + a_2 t_2\\t_2=\frac{v_2-u_2}{a_2}=\frac{11.8-7.8}{1.83}=2.19 s

So, the total time is

t=t_1+t_2=4.26+2.19=6.45 s
