Why does the earth bulge at the equator?
sattari [20]

centrifugal force is a fictitious force. What is happening is that since the earth itself is not a rigid body it will deform when under motion. Although gravity attempts to make the earth spherical, as it is rotating the earth deforms, in such away that it flattens to become an oblique spheroid. This happens as the material at the equator must have a net resultant centripetal force (not centrifugal) which causes its position of equilibrium from the center of the earth to be further away than at the poles as they do not have this force as they are not rotating around the center of mass.

A chain has a mass of 10.0 kg. It is hanging freely, at rest, with one end connected to a ceiling hook.
Elza [17]

Answer:

Identify the object to be analyzed. For some systems in equilibrium, it may be necessary to consider more than one object. Identify all forces acting on the object. Identify the questions you need to answer. Identify the information given in the problem. In realistic problems, some key information may be implicit in the situation rather than provided explicitly.

John and Linda are arguing about the definition of density. John says the density of an object is proportional to itsmass. Linda
NeX [460]

Answer:

They are both correct.

Explanation:

The density of an object is defined as the ratio of its mass to its volume. This implies that the density of the object is both proportional to the mass and also to the volume of the object. John only mentioned mass which is correct. Linda mentioned the second variable on which density depends which is the volume of the object.

Hence considering the both statements objectively, one can say that they are both correct.

Mangrove forests play an important role in _______.
AysviL [449]
D. All of the above

At high tide fish will feed among the mangrove roots - rich fishing ground

The trees trap sediment and soil in the river that would flow out to sea which also helps stop erosion

Wildlife utilise almost every part of the tree, with insects and birds, monkeys and lizards in the branches, shrimps and fish in the roots, and snails and clams in the soil

A hot water heater is operated by using solar power. if the solar collector has an area of 5.3 m2 , and the power delivered by s
OLEGan [10]
Heat absorbed by the solar collector = Area*Irradiance = 5.3*995 = 5273.5 W

Heat Q in joules absorbed in t hours = Heat used to heat water. That is,

5273.5*t = mCΔT; where mass = volume*density = 1*1000 = 1000 kg

Therefore;
5273.5t = 1000*4186*(65-20) = 188370000
t = 188370000/5273.5 = 35720.11 seconds = 35720.11/(60*60) hours ≈ 9.92 hours.

It will take approximately 9.92 hours.
