Describe how Ridge Push drives plate motion and discuss how it works to move Earth’s plates

Physics
1 answer:
Ulleksa [173]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Plates at our planet's surface move because of the intense heat in the Earth's core that causes molten rock in the mantle layer to move. It moves in a pattern called a convection cell that forms when warm material rises, cools, and eventually sink down. As the cooled material sinks down, it is warmed and rises again.

A car speeds past a stationary police officer while traveling 135 km/h. the officer immediately begins pursuit at a constant acc
kykrilka [37]

(a) The time it takes for the police officer to catch up to the speeding car is determined as 0.31 s.

(b) The speed of the police officer  at the time he catches up to the driver is 136.8 km/h.

<h3>Time of motion of the police</h3>

The time taken for the police to catch up with the driver is calculated as follows;

v = at

where;

  • a is acceleration = 11.8 km/h/s, = 3.278 m/s²
  • v is velocity = 135 km/h = 37.5 m/s

t = v/a

t = 37.5/3.278

t = 11.4 seconds

(v1 - v2)t = ¹/₂at² --- (1)

(v1 - v2)t = v1²/2a --- (2)

From (1):

(v1 - 37.5)t = ¹/₂(3.278)t²

(v1 - 37.5)t = 1.639t²

v1 - 37.5 = 1.639t

v1 = 1.639t + 37.5  -----(3)

From (2):

(v1 - 37.5)t = v1²/(2 x 3.278)

(v1 - 37.5)t = 0.153 ----- (4)

solve 3 and 4;

(1.639t + 37.5 - 37.5)t = 0.153

1.639t² = 0.153

t² = 0.0933

t = 0.31 s

<h3>Speed of the police officer</h3>

v1 = 1.639(0.31) + 37.5 = 38 m/s = 136.8 km/h

What kind of motion for a star does not produce a Doppler effect? Explain.
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

 Transverse motion does not produced a doppler effect for a star. As, the doppler effect are occurred when the object are emitting light either in the direction towards the observer or moving away. The various astronomical objects are moving and the observer observed the blue wavelength of the light.

Doppler effect in the star is the process when the observer moves towards the star then it seems like the star move towards the observer.

A charge of +1 coulomb is place at the 0 cm mark of a meter stick. A charge of +4 coulombs is placed at the 100 cm mark of the s
UkoKoshka [18]

As per the question the charge of one coulomb is at 0 cm of the metre stick.the second charge of 4 coulomb is situated at at 100 cm of metre stick.

hence the separation distance between them is 100 cm.

now as per the question a proton is set up  between them in such a way that the net force on it is zero

let the charge of proton is q coulomb let the proton is situated at distance of x cm from the charge 1 coulomb.hence it is situated at a distance of 100-x cm from the charge 4 coulomb.

the force exerted by 1 coulomb on proton is-\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon} \frac{1*q}{x^2}

the force exerted by 4 coulomb on proton is-\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon} \frac{q*4}{[100-x]^2}

as the net force is zero,hence-

\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon} \frac{1*q}{x^2}=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon} \frac{4*q}{[100-x]^2}

=\frac{1}{x^2} =\frac{4}{[100-x]^2}


x^2=\frac{[100-x[^2}{4}[/tex[tex]x=\frac{100-x}{2}

3x=100

x=\frac{100}{3}

=33.33333cm   [ans]

What is Nurture? How does it explain the human condition?
Tomtit [17]
Nurture refers to all the environmental variables that impact who we are, including our early childhood experiences, how we were raised, our social relationships, and our surrounding culture

While certain physical traits like skin and eye color and diseases like sickle cell anemia and Huntington’s chorea have been found to be the result of direct genetic inheritance, virtually any pattern of thinking or behavior can be understood from the perspective of a combination of nature and nurture. In the animal kingdom, domestication of many species is understood to be the result of encouraging domesticated behaviors (nurture), then having animals that most successfully adopt those behaviors breed with each other so it becomes part of their nature (Bouchard, 1994).

In humans, many studies in more than the past 20 years involve identical or fraternal twins who are separated at birth. The question of nature vs. nurture somewhat continues to be debated concerning human behavior, intelligence, and in the development of personality traits
