Answer:

continental drift

Explanation:

Wegener proposed that the continents plowed through crust of ocean basins, which would explain why the outlines of many coastlines look like they fit together like a puzzle

A team of dogs accelerates a 290kg dogsled from 0 to 6.0m/s in 3.0 s. Assume that the acceleration is constant.Part AWhat is the

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

(a) $a=2m/sec^2$

(b) 5220 j

(d) 3446.66 watt

Explanation:

We have given mass m = 290 kg

Initial velocity u = 0 m/sec

Final velocity v = 6 m/sec

Time t = 3 sec

From first equation of motion

v = u+at

So $a=\frac{v-u}{t}=\frac{6-0}{3}=2m/sec^2$

(a) We know that force is given by

F = ma

So force will be $F=290\times 2=580N$

(b) From second equation of motion we know that

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2=0\times 3+\frac{1}{2}\times 2\times 3^2=9m$

We know that work done is given by

W = F s = 580×9 =5220 j

We know that power is given as

$P=\frac{W}{t}=\frac{5220}{3}=1740Watt$

(d) Time t = 1.5 sec

So $P=\frac{W}{t}=\frac{5220}{1.5}=3466.66Watt$

How can pressure impact the alignment of minerals within the rock

Sloan [31]

Metamorphism occurs because some minerals are stable only under certain conditions of pressure and temperature. When pressure and temperature change, chemical reactions occur to cause the minerals in the rock to change to an assemblage that is stable at the new pressure and temperature conditions.
