Answer: C ; Rising magma from the seafloor.

Explanation:

Underwater volcanoes erupting can cause the magma to rise above the seafloor therefor hardening and eventually creating islands. Upon this factor, you might know that another word for an oceanic island is a volcanic island, this is important to remember so that when you see a question like this one you will automatically know the answer without having to checkback.

The natural factor that is most likely to support the formation of an oceanic island is the rise of magma from the seafloor. Oceanic islands are also otherwise known as volcanic islands. When volcanoes erupt, they create layers of lava that break the surface of the water. When the tops of the volcanoes emerge, an island is created.<span> </span>

Answer:

Depending on where people are located in the world (Northern hemisphere, Southern hemisphere, etc) depends on the difference in direction (North, South, east, West) which is most likely why it'd look different.

You paddle a conoe with a force of 325 N. You and the canoe have a combined mass of 250 kg. What is the acceleration of the cano

Brums [2.3K]

$f = ma$

Rearranging it, we get;

$a = \frac{f}{m}$
Where a is the acceleration, f is the force, and m is the mass

$a = \frac{325}{250}$
$a = 1.3 \frac{m}{ {s}^{2} }$

Two masses —m1 and m2— are connected by light cables to the perimeters of two cylinders of radii r1 and r2 respectively, as show

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Part a)

Mass of m2 is given as

$m_2 = \frac{20}{3} kg$

Part b)

Angular acceleration is given as

$\alpha = 1.96 rad/s^2$

Part c)

Tension in the rope is given as

$T = 176.6 N$

Explanation:

Part a)

When m1 and m2 both connected to the cylinder then the system is at rest

so we can use torque balance here

$m_1g r_1 = m_2 g r_2$

$20 g(0.5) = m_2 g(1.5)$

$10 = 1.5 m_2$

$m_2 = \frac{20}{3} kg$

Part b)

When block m_2 is removed then system becomes unstable

so force equation of mass m1

$m_1g - T = m_1 a$

also we have

$T r_1 = I\alpha$

now we have

$m_1g = \frac{I a}{r_1^2} + m_1 a$

$a = \frac{m_1g}{\frac{I}{r_1^2} + m_1}$

$a = \frac{20 (9.81)}{\frac{45}{0.5^2} + 20}$

$a = 0.981 m/s^2$

so angular acceleration is given as

$\alpha = \frac{a}{r_1}$

$\alpha = \frac{0.981}{0.5}$

$\alpha = 1.96 rad/s^2$

Part c)

Tension in the rope is given as

$T = \frac{I\alpha}{r_1}$

$T = \frac{45 (1.96)}{0.5}$

$T = 176.6 N$

What is cosmic background radiation?

Kobotan [32]

Cosmic background radiation is electromagnetic radiation from the sky with no discernible source. The origin of this radiation depends on the region of the spectrum that is observed.
