About 80% of the earth's volume is made of mantle.


 <span>The </span>mantle<span> is a layer inside a </span>terrestrial planet<span> and some other </span>rocky planetary bodies<span>. For a mantle to form, the planetary body must be large enough to have undergone the process of </span>planetary differentiation<span> by </span>density<span>. The mantle lies between the </span>core<span> below and the </span>crust<span> above. The terrestrial planets (</span>Earth<span>, </span>Venus<span>, </span>Mars<span> and </span>Mercury<span>), the </span>Moon<span>, two of </span>Jupiter<span>'s </span>moons<span> (</span>Io<span> and </span>Europa<span>) and the </span>asteroid Vesta<span> each have a mantle made of </span>silicate<span> rock.</span><span>Interpretation of spacecraft data suggests that at least two other moons of Jupiter (</span>Ganymede<span> and </span>Callisto<span>), as well as </span>Titan<span> and </span>Triton<span> each have a mantle made of </span>ice<span> or other </span>solid volatile<span> substances </span>up of Mantle

A lemon with mass 0.3 kg falls out of a tree from a height of 1.8 m. How much mechanical energy does the lemon have just before
Zina [86]
Mechanical energy is the energy that is possessed by an object due to its motion or due to its position. It can either be kinetics or potential. In this problem you know it starting position so you can calculate it's potential energy (PE):

<span>PE=mass∗gravity∗height=0.3kg∗9.8m/s2∗1.8m=?

</span>The answer will typically be given in joules:

1J=kg∗m2s2 Could be wrong...  But I believe it is 5.3...? as a final product.

What is your angular position 75 seconds after the wheel starts turning, measured counterclockwise from the top? Express your an
AveGali [126]

Complete Question

A Ferris wheel on a California pier is 27 m high and rotates once every 32 seconds in the counterclockwise direction. When the wheel starts turning, you are at the very top.

What is your angular position 75 seconds after the wheel starts turning, measured counterclockwise from the top? Express your answer as an angle between 0∘ and 360∘. Express your answer in degrees.

Answer:

\phi=123.75

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Height h=27m

Period T=32sec

Time t=75sec

Generally the equation for angular velocity is mathematically given by

\omega=\frac{2 \pi}{T}

\omega=\frac{2 \pi}{32}

\omega=0.196rad/s

Therefore

\theta=\omega t

\theta=0.196rad/s*75sec

\theta=843.75 \textdegree

Therefore

\phi=\theta-2(360)

\phi=123.75

Class II levers like ankles and wheelbarrows are useful because they provide mechanical advantage, by amplifying the input force
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

The solution and the explanation are in the Explanation section.

Explanation:

According to the diagram that is in the attached image, the EFFORT force at point A and the load is at O point. The torque due to weight is:

TA = W * (a * cosθ)

The torque due to effort at C point is:

TC = E * (b * cosθ)

The net torque is equal to 0, we have:

Tnet = 0

W * (a * cosθ) - E * (b * cosθ) = 0

E=W\frac{a}{b}

From the figure, you can observe that a/b < 1, thus E < W

A block whose weight is 45.8 N rests on a horizontal table. A horizontal force of 36.6 N is applied to the block. The coefficien
Liula [17]

Answer:

Yes it will move and a= 4.19m/s^2

Explanation:

In order for the box to move it needs to overcome the maximum static friction force

Max Static Friction = μFn(normal force)

plug in givens

Max Static friction = 31.9226

Since 36.6>31.9226, the box will move

Mass= Wieght/g which is 45.8/9.8= 4.67kg

Fnet = Fapp-Fk

= 36.6-16.9918

=19.6082

=ma

Solve for a=4.19m/s^2
