A kilogram is a unit of weight. So a kilogram of bricks would weigh the same as a kilogram of feathers despite if its in water or air since weight is determined by gravity in relation to mass and not what substance the object is in.

Tectonic plates are large segments of the earth's crust that move slowly. Suppose one such plate has an average speed of 6.0 cm
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

1.35×10⁻⁷ m

37.278 mi/My

Explanation:

Speed of the tectonic plate= 6 cm/yr

Converting to seconds

6=\frac{6}{365.25\times 24\times 60\times 60}

So in one second it will move

\frac{6}{365.25\times 24\times 60\times 60}

In 71 seconds

71\times \frac{6}{365.25\times 24\times 60\times 60}=1.35\times 10^{-5}\ cm

The tectonic plate will move 1.35×10⁻⁵ cm or 1.35×10⁻⁷ m

Convert to mi/My

1 cm = 6.213×10⁻⁶ mi

1 M = 10⁶ years

6\times 6.213\times 10^{-6}\times 10^6=37.278\ mi/My

Speed of the tectonic plate is 37.278 mi/My

A puddle of water has a thin film of gasoline floating on it. A beam of light is shining perpendicular on the film. If the wavel
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the concepts of Destructive and constructive interference. The constructive interference in tin film is given by

2t = (m+\frac{1}{2})\frac{\lambda}{n}

Where,

t = thickness

\lambda=Wavelenght

m= is an integer

n= film/refractive index

We use this equaton because phase change is only present for gasoline air interface, but not at the gasoline-water interface. <em>The minimum t only would be when the value of m=0 then</em>

2nt = \frac{\lambda}{2}

t = \frac{560nm}{4*1-4}

t = 100nm

Therefore the correct answer is D. The minimum thickness of the film to see ab right reflection is 100nm
