When two plates move together, lithosphere is ________. not changed destroyed created?

1 answer:

I believe the answer is the second option. When two plates move together, lithosphere is destroyed. The lithosphere is the part of the ground that includes the uppermost mantle and the crust. It is where plate tectonics are situated. When these move, surely the lithosphere is affected and is changed.

3. A pendulum with a 1.0-kg weight is set in motion from a position 0.04 m above the lowest point on the path of the weight.

gavmur [86]

Answer: K.E = 0.4 J

Explanation:

Given that:

M = 1.0 kg

h = 0.04 m

K.E = ?

According to conservative of energy

K.E = P.E

K.E = mgh

K.E = 1 × 9.81 × 0.04

K.E = 0.3924 Joule

The kinetic energy of the pendulum at the lowest point is 0.39 Joule

A transverse wave on a long horizontal rope with a

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

2 seconds

Explanation:

The frequency of a wave is related to its wavelength and speed by the equation

$f=\frac{v}{\lambda}$

where

f is the frequency

v is the speed of the wave

$\lambda$ is the wavelength

For the wave in this problem,

v = 2 m/s

$\lambda=8 m$

So the frequency is

$f=\frac{2}{8}=0.25 Hz$

The period of a wave is equal to the reciprocal of the frequency, so for this wave:

$T=\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{0.25}=4 s$

This means that the wave takes 4 seconds to complete one full cycle.

Therefore, the time taken for the wave to go from a point with displacement +A to a point with displacement -A is half the period, therefore for this wave:

$t=\frac{T}{2}=\frac{4}{2}=2 s$

A factory worker pushes a crate of mass 31.0 kg a distance of 4.35 m along a level floor at constant velocity by pushing horizon

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

a. 79.1 N

b. 344 J

c. 344 J

d. 0 J

e. 0 J

Explanation:

a. Since the crate has a constant velocity, its net force must be 0 according to Newton's 1st law. The push force $F_p$ by the worker must be equal to the friction force $F_f$ on the crate, which is the product of friction coefficient μ and normal force N:

Let g = 9.81 m/s2

$F_p = F_f = \mu N = \mu mg = 0.26 * 31 * 9.81 = 79.1 N$

b. The work is done on the crate by this force is the product of its force $F_p$ and the distance traveled s = 4.35

$W_p = F_ps = 79.1*4.35 = 344 J$

c. The work is done on the crate by friction force is also the product of friction force and the distance traveled s = 4.35

$W_f = F_fs = -79.1*4.35 = -344 J$

This work is negative because the friction vector is in the opposite direction with the distance vector

d. As both the normal force and gravity are perpendicular to the distance vector, the work done by those forces is 0. In other words, these forces do not make any work.

e. The total work done on the crate would be sum of the work done by the pushing force and the work done by friction

$W_p + W_f = 344 - 344 = 0 J$

According to the navigation rules, which must be aboard a 22-foot powerboat

melomori [17]

The navigation rules for countries in the Unites States are compiled in the U.S. Coast Guard. There are actually boating courses that are recognized by the U.S Coast Guard. One of the things they discuss there is the emergency aids every boat should have depending on the size and purpose. For recreational vessels with lengths measuring less than 39.4 feet, they must carry aboard an efficient sound producing device. This will serve as your signal when emergencies happen and you have to get the attention of nearby boat vessels. Hence, for practical purposes, every boat should have a whistle or a horn.
