Explain how earths lithosphere and asthenosphere work together

Physics

Answer:

The lithosphere can affect the atmosphere when tectonic plates move and cause an eruption, where magma below spews up as lava above.

Explanation:

The lithosphere is broken into giant plates that fit around the globe like puzzle pieces. These puzzle pieces move a little bit each year as they slide on top of a somewhat fluid part of the mantle called the asthenosphere.

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

A. 10.84 m/s

B. 1.56 s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Angle of projection (θ) = 45°

Maximum height (H) = 3 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Velocity of projection (u) =?

Time (T) taken to hit the ground again =?

A. Determination of the velocity of projection.

Angle of projection (θ) = 45°

Maximum height (H) = 3 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Velocity of projection (u) =?

H = u²Sine²θ / 2g

3 = u²(Sine 45)² / 2 × 9.8

3 = u²(0.7071)² / 19.6

Cross multiply

3 × 19.6 = u²(0.7071)²

58.8 = u²(0.7071)²

Divide both side by (0.7071)²

u² = 58.8 / (0.7071)²

u² = 117.60

Take the square root of both side

u = √117.60

u = 10.84 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of projection is 10.84 m/s.

B. Determination of the time taken to hit the ground again.

Angle of projection (θ) = 45°

Velocity of projection (u) = 10.84 m/s

Time (T) taken to hit the ground again =?

T = 2uSine θ /g

T = 2 × 10.84 × Sine 45 / 9.8

T = 21.68 × 0.7071 / 9.8

T = 1.56 s

Therefore, the time taken to hit the ground again is 1.56 s.

(a) A light-rail commuter train accelerates at a rate of 1.35 m/s2 . How long does it take to reach its top speed of 80.0 km/h,

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

(a) Time t = 16.46 sec

(b) Time t =13.466 sec

Explanation:

(a) As the train starts from rest its initial velocity u = 0 m/sec

Acceleration $a=1.35m/sec^2$

Final speed v = 80 km/hr

$80km/hr=\frac{80\times 1000}{3600sec}=22.22m/sec$

From first equation of motion v =u+at

So $t=\frac{v-u}{a}=\frac{22.22-0}{1.35}=16.46 sec$

(b) Now initial speed u = 22.22 m/sec

As finally train comes to rest so final speed v=0 m/sec

Deceleration $a=1.65m/sec^2$

So $t=\frac{v-u}{a}=\frac{0-22.22}{-1.65}=13.466 sec$

Final velocity v = 0 m/sec

Time t = 8.30 sec

So acceleration is given by

$a=\frac{v-u}{t}=\frac{0-22.22}{8.3}=-2.6771m/sec^2$

As acceleration is negative so it is a deceleration
