Answer:

D, the lithosphere. (CRUST AND UPPER MANTLE)

Explanation:

A tectonic plate (also called lithospheric plate) is a massive, irregularly shaped slab of solid rock, generally composed of both continental and oceanic lithosphere. Plate size can vary greatly, from a few hundred to thousands of kilometers across; the Pacific and Antarctic Plates are among the largest. Plate thickness also varies greatly, ranging from less than 15 km for young oceanic lithosphere to about 200 km or more for ancient continental lithosphere (for example, the interior parts of North and South America).

Mary starts at the edge of a circular platform that is slowly rotating on a frictionless axle. She then walks towards the opposi
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The motion of Mary along the circular path is a centripetal.

As Mary moves from one edge of the circular platform to the other edge, she is covering a distance which is the radius of the circular path at a velocity.

According to the relationship

w = v/r where

w is the angular velocity

r is the radius

v is the linear velocity

Initially, before Mary starts, her linear speed is zero and her angular velocity is also zero. As she move towards the opposite edge, she is covering a distance of radius r. According to the formula, increase in radius will leads to decrease in her angular velocity and vice versa. As Mary starts moving towards the centre of the circular path, her angular velocity increases, at the centre of the platform, her angular velocity is at maximum at this point. As she moves further from the center to the other edge, her angular velocity decreases due to increase in distance covered across the circular path.

Two charges are located in the xx–yy plane. If q1=−4.10 nCq1=−4.10 nC and is located at (x=0.00 m,y=1.080 m)(x=0.00 m,y=1.080 m)
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Due to first charge , electric field at origin will be oriented towards - ve of y axis.

magnitude

Ey = -8.99 x 10⁹ x 4.1 x 10⁻⁹ / 1.08² j

= - 31.6 j N/C

Due to second charge electric field at origin

= 8.99 x 10⁹ x 3.6  x 10⁻⁹ / 1.2²+ .6²

= 8.99 x 10⁹ x 3.6  x 10⁻⁹ / 1.8

= 18 N/C

It is making angle θ where

Tanθ = .6 / 1.2

= 26.55°

this field in vector form

= - 18 cos 26.55 i - 18 sin26.55 j

= - 16.10 i - 8.04 j

Total field

= - 16.10 i - 8.04 j + ( - 31.6 j )

= -16.1 i - 39.64 j .

Ex = - 16.1 i

Ey = - 39.64 j .

What is the equation for potential energy?
Mrrafil [7]
You can calculate potential energy by:
U = m.g.h

Where, U = potential energy
m = mass
g = acceleration due to gravity
h = height

Hope this helps!

A catamaran with a mass of 5.44×10^3 kg is moving at 12 knots. How much work is required to increase the speed to 16 knots? (One
Andre45 [30]

The work that is required to increase the speed to 16 knots is 14,176.47 Joules

If a catamaran with a mass of 5.44×10^3 kg is moving at 12 knots, hence;

5.44×10^3 kg = 12 knots

For an increased speed to 16knots, we will have:

x = 16knots

Divide both expressions

\frac{5.44 \times 10^3}{x} = \frac{12}{16}\\12x = 16 \times 5.44 \times 10^3\\x = 7.23\times 10^3kg\\

To get the required work done, we will divide the mass by the speed of one knot to have:

w=\frac{7230}{0.51}\\w= 14,176.47Joules

Hence the work that is required to increase the speed to 16 knots is 14,176.47 Joules
