The correct answer is C. divergent plate. That's because the plates diverged, that is, they separated. When they moved away from each other, the sea filled the hole. The opposite would be convergent if two plates moved towards each other and squished out a sea. Transform would be if it changed from one form to another.

Andrew [12]

Explanation:

Let us assume that forces acting at point B are as follows.

$\sum F_{x} = 0$

$T + F_{AB} Sin 60$ = 0 ...... (1)

$\sum F_{y}$ = 0

$F_{AB} Cos 60 + W$ = 0 .......... (2)

Hence, formula for allowable normal stress of cable is as follows.

$\sigma_{allow} = \frac{T}{A}$

T = $(20 \times 1000) \frac{\pi}{4} \times (0.5)^{2}$

= 3925 kip

From equation (1), $F_{AB}Sin (60^{o})$ = -3925

$F_{AB} \times -0.304 8$ = -3925

$F_{AB}$ = 12877.29 kip

From equation (2), -12877.29 (Cos 60) + W = 0

$-12877.29 kip \times \frac{1}{2} + W$ = 0

W = 6438.64 kip

Thus, we can conclude that greatest weight of the crate is 6438.64 kip.

Four weightlifters (A-D) enter a competition. The mass, distance, and time of their lifts are shown in the table.

siniylev [52]

Let Pa, Pb, Pc, and Pd be the powers delivered by weightlifters A, B, C, and D, respectively.

Use this equation to determine each power value:

P = W÷Δt

P is the power, W is the work done by the weightlifter, and Δt is the elapsed time.

A) Determining Pa:

Pa = W÷Δt

The weightlifter does work to lift the weight up a certain distance. Therefore the work done is equal to the weight's gain in gravitational potential energy. The equation for gravitational PE is

PE = mgh

PE is the potential energy, m is the mass of the weight, g is the acceleration of objects due to earth's gravity, and h is the distance the weight was lifted.

We can equate W = PE = mgh, therefore we can make the following substitution:

Pa = mgh÷Δt

Given values:

m = 100.0kg

g = 9.81m/s²

h = 2.25m

Δt = 0.151s

Plug in the values and solve for Pa

Pa = 100.0×9.81×2.25÷0.151

Pa = 14600W (watt is the SI derived unit of power)

B) Determining Pb:

Let us use our new equation derived in part A to solve for Pb:

Pb = mgh÷Δt

Given values:

m = 150.0kg

g = 9.81m/s²

h = 1.76m

Δt = 0.052s

Plug in the values and solve for Pb

Pb = 150.0×9.81×1.76÷0.052

Pb = 49800W

C) Determining Pc:

Pc = mgh÷Δt

Given values:

m = 200.0kg

g = 9.81m/s²

h = 1.50m

Δt = 0.217s

Plug in the values and solve for Pc

Pc = 200.0×9.81×1.50÷0.217

Pc = 13600W

D) Determining Pd:

Pd = mgh÷Δt

Given values:

m = 250.0kg

g = 9.81m/s²

h = 1.25m

Δt = 0.206s

Plug in the values and solve for Pd

Pd = 250.0×9.81×1.25÷0.206

Pd = 14900W

Compare the following power values:

Pa = 14600W, Pb = 49800W, Pc = 13600W, Pd = 14900W

Pc is the lowest value.

Therefore, weightlifter C delivers the least power.

Frequency is measured in units called?

irina1246 [14]

The frequency, f, of a wave is the number of waves passing a point in a certain time. We normally use a time of one second, so this gives frequency the unit hertz (Hz), since one hertz is equal to one wave per second.

A 0.0663 kg ingot of metal is heated to 241◦C

Westkost [7]

Answer:280.216j/kg°C

Explanation:

Mass of metal=0.0663kg

mass of water=0.395kg

Final temperature=27.4°C

Temperature of metal=241°C

Temperature of water=25°C

specific heat capacity of water=4186j/kg°C

0.0663xax(241-27.4)=0.395x4186x(27.4-25)

0.0663xax213.6=0.395x4186x2.4

14.16168a=3968.328

a=3968.328 ➗ 14.16168

a=280.216j/kg°C
