Answer:

At the high temperatures of the inner solar nebula, the small proto-planets were too hot to hold the volatile gases that dominated the solar nebula. These proto-planets were Earth, Mars, Venus, and Mercury.

Explanation:

The materials that accreted into the early Earth were probably added piecemeal, without and particular order. The early earth was very hot from gravitational compression, impacts and radioactive decay; the earth was partially molted. The denser metallic liquids sank to the center of the Earth and less denser silicate liquids rose to the top. In this way the Earth differentiated very quickly into a metallic, mostly iron core and a rocky silicate mantle.

B. Newton's First Law, I'm pretty sure. The first states that an object in motion stays in motion, and an object at rest stays at rest until an outside force is applied, and that seems pretty relevant.

An object with a mass M = 250 g is at rest on a plane that makes an angle θ = 30 o above the horizontal. The coefficient of kine

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

v = 79.2 m/s

Solution:

As per the question:

Mass of the object, m = 250 g = 0.250 kg

Angle, $\theta = 30^{\circ}$

Coefficient of kinetic friction, $\mu_{k} = 0.100$

Mass attached to the string, m = 0.200 kg

Distance, d = 30 cm = 0.03 m

Now,

The tension in the string is given by:

$Mgsin\theta + \mu_{k}Mgcos\theta + Ma = T$ (1)

Also

T = m(g + a)

Thus eqn (1) can be written as:

$Mgsin\theta + \mu_{k}Mgcos\theta + Ma = m(g - a)$

$Mgsin\theta + \mu_{k}Mgcos\theta + Ma = mg + ma$

$mg - Mgsin\theta - \mu_{k}Mgcos\theta = (M - m)a$

$a = \frac{0.2\times 9.8 - 0.250\times 9.8\times sin30^{\circ} - 0.1\times 0.250\times 9.8\times cos30^{\circ}}{0.250 - 0.200}$

$a = 10.45\ m/s^{2}$

Now, the speed is given by the third eqn of motion with initial velocity being zero:

$v^{2} = u^{2} + 2ad$

where

u = initial velocity = 0

Thus

$v = \sqrt{2ad}$

$v = \sqrt{2\times 10.45\times 0.03} = 0.792\ m/s$

As you move farther away from a source emitting a pure tone, the ___________ of the sound you hear decreases.

Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

frequency

Explanation:

The phenomenon of apparent change in frequency due to the relation motion between the source and the observer is called Doppler's effect.

So, when we move farther, the frequency of sound decreases. The formula of the Doppler's effect is

$f' = \frac{v + v_o}{v+ v_s} f$

where, v is the velocity of sound, vs is the velocity of source and vo is the velocity of observer, f is the true frequency. f' is the apparent frequency.

Why does sand feel hot under your feet on a sunny day at the beach?

zaharov [31]

Answer:

At a sunny day at the beach, the top of the sand is warm. The radiation from the Sun heats up the surface of the sand, but sand has a low thermal conductivity, so this energy stays at the surface of the sand.
