When Alfred Wegener proposed the idea the continents could move, other scientists scoffed. ... Plate tectonics -- the concept the continents are rockplates moving on the magma underneath -- is now accepted.Magnetism is part of the evidence forplate tectonic theory.

We know that every object exerts an attraction on every other object and the heavier the object ___ the attraction.

hichkok12 [17]

I don't know what the exact word is, but I do know that the bigger an objects mass is the more it will attract other objects toward it, mainly smaller objects with less mass. it might be gravity or something around those lines....is it a multiple choice question?

The work energy principle states that the change in kinetic energy of an object is equal to the net work done on the object. If

sattari [20]

Answer:

$v=\sqrt{2gh}\ m/s$

Explanation:

From work energy theorem

Work done by all forces = Change in kinetic energy

Lets take

m= mass of object

h=height from the ground surface

initial velocity of object = 0 m/s

The final velocity of object is v

Work done by gravitational force = m g . h

The final kinetic energy = 1/2 m v²

Work done by all forces = Change in kinetic energy

m g h = 1/2 m v² - 0

v² = 2 g h

$v=\sqrt{2gh}\ m/s$
