They will hit and either bounce back or shoot off to opposite sides.

My guess is either they come to a stop when they come in contact, or one ball is going to go the opposite direction.

What observations can the geologist make by working outdoors instead of in a lab?

vredina [299]

Answer:

Geology is the study of the Earth that involves the process at Earth, materials of which it is made, and its history.

<u>Geologists combine both laboratory and field data to illustrate the results of their research. Some observations that can the geologist make by working outdoors instead of in a lab are as follows:</u>

Understanding and exploring the earth's surface closely using geophysical tools.
Collecting samples by own and make some interpretations at the same time.
Observation of the landscapes
Close observation of outcrops

Suppose you are drinking root beer from a conical paper cup. The cup has a diameter of 10 centimeters and a depth of 13 centimet

sveta [45]

Answer:

The level of the root beer is dropping at a rate of 0.08603 cm/s.

Explanation:

The volume of the cone is :

$V=\frac {1}{3}\times \pi\times r^2\times h$

Where, V is the volume of the cone

r is the radius of the cone

h is the height of the cone

The ratio of the radius and the height remains constant in overall the cone.

Thus, given that, r = d / 2 = 10 / 2 cm = 5 cm

h = 13 cm

r / h = 5 / 13

r = {5 / 13} h

$V=\frac {1}{3}\times \frac {22}{7}\times ({{{\frac {5}{13}\times h}}})^2\times h$

$V=\frac {550}{3549}\times h^3$

Also differentiating the expression of volume w.r.t. time as:

$\frac {dV}{dt}=\frac {550}{3549}\times 3\times h^2\times \frac {dh}{dt}$

Given: $\frac {dV}{dt}$ = -4 cm³/sec (negative sign to show leaving)

h = 10 cm

So,

$-4=\frac{550}{3549}\times 3\times {10}^2\times \frac {dh}{dt}$

$\frac{55000}{1183}\times \frac {dh}{dt}=-4$

$\frac {dh}{dt}=-0.08603\ cm/s$

<u>The level of the root beer is dropping at a rate of 0.08603 cm/s.</u>

What mechanism of energy is transferred by mass motion of fluid from one region of space to another?

lora16 [44]

Convection, because it is the process of heat transfer from one location to the next by the movement of fluids. The moving fluid carries energy within it.

If a town was 90 miles away and you travel at 45 mph how long would it take to get there

notka56 [123]

Answer:

t = 2 hours

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance of the town, d = 90 miles

Speed, v = 45 mph

We need to find the time to get there. The speed of an object is given by :

$v=\dfrac{d}{t}$

Where

t is time

$t=\dfrac{d}{v}\\\\t=\dfrac{90}{45}\\\\t=2\ h$

So, the required time is 2 hours.
