2. The Himalayas in central Asia are the tallest mountains in the world. But fossils of seashells can be found high in these mou

ntains, far from any ocean.
How do you think they got there?

Answer:

The sea level could have been much higher in the past.

Explanation:

The tectonic plates shifted and the mountain rose from there.

The cornea behaves as a thin lens of focal length approximately 1.80 {\rm cm}, although this varies a bit. The material of which

spayn [35]

Answer:

The height of the image will be "1.16 mm".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Object distance, u = 25 cm

Focal distance, f = 1.8 cm

On applying the lens formula, we get

⇒ $\frac{1}{v} -\frac{1}{u} =\frac{1}{f}$

On putting estimate values, we get

⇒ $\frac{1}{v} -\frac{1}{(-25)} =\frac{1}{1.8}$

⇒ $\frac{1}{v} =\frac{1}{1.8} -\frac{1}{25}$

⇒ $v=1.94 \ cm$

As a result, the image would be established mostly on right side and would be true even though v is positive.

By magnification,

$m=\frac{v}{u}$ and $m=\frac{h_{1}}{h_{0}}$

⇒ $\frac{v}{u} =\frac{h_{1}}{h_{0}}$

⇒ $\frac{1.94}{25}=\frac{{h_{1}}}{15}$

⇒ ${h_{1}}=1.16 \ mm$

In a lightning bolt, a large amount of charge flows during a time of 1.2 x 10-3 s. Assume that the bolt can be represented as a

ohaa [14]

Answer: 10.58 C has flowed during the lightning bolt

Explanation:

Given that;

Time of flow t = 1.2 × 10⁻³

perpendicular distance r = 21 m

Magnetic field B = 8.4 x 10⁻⁵ T

Now lets consider the expression for magnetic field;

B = u₀I / 2πr

the current flow is;

I = ( B × 2πr ) / u₀

so we substitute

I = ( (8.4 x 10⁻⁵) × 2 × 3.14 × 21 ) / 4π ×10⁻⁷

= 0.01107792 / 0.000001256

= 8820 A

Hence the charge flows during lightning bolt will be;

q = It

so we substitute

q = 8820 × 1.2 × 10⁻³

q = 10.58 C

therefore 10.58 C has flowed during the lightning bolt

If an object is to rest on an incline without slipping, then friction must equal the component of the weight of the object paral

leonid [27]

Answer:

$\theta = tan^{-1}\mu$

Explanation:

As we know that if the object is placed on the inclined plane then the force of friction on the object is counterbalanced by the component of the weight of the object along the inclined plane.

So we can say

$F_f = mgsin\theta$

now if we increase the inclination of the plane then the component of the weight weight along the inclined plane will increase and hence the friction force will also increase.

As we know that the limiting value or the maximum value of friction force at the static condition is given by

$F_f = \mu N$

$N = mg cos\theta$

so we have

$F_f = \mu (mg cos\theta)$

so we will have

$mg sin\theta = \mu (mg cos\theta)$

so now we have

$tan\theta = \mu$

so maximum possible angle of the inclined plane is

$\theta = tan^{-1}\mu$
