Answer:

C. Downward force from rocks in the crust  

Explanation:

Diamonds are different forms of element carbon. Diamonds are formed in Mantle and they require large amount of temperature and pressure for their formation. These come up in higher layers due to volcanic eruptions. The pressure is caused by the downward force from the rocks in the crust. The pressure is not constant everywhere because the thickness of the layer varies. Thus, diamonds are not that common.

Does it take more force to slow something down than to speed it up.
ANTONII [103]
To bring something to a stop the same force that was applied to speed it up can be used to stop it. If a greater force is used it will stop quicker.

What is the SI unit for kinetic energy
trapecia [35]
The easiest way to build a unit for energy is to remember that
'work' is energy, and  
                                       Work = (force) x (distance).

So energy is                   (unit of force) x (unit of distance)

                   [Energy]  =       (Newton)            (meter) .

'Newton' itself is a combination of base units, so
energy is really
                             (kilogram-meter/sec²)      (meter)

                       =           kilogram-meter² / sec² .

That unit is so complicated that it's been given a special,
shorter name:
                                       Joule .

It doesn't matter what kind of energy you're talking about.
Kinetic, potential, nuclear, electromagnetic, food, chemical,
muscle, wind, solar, steam ... they all boil down to Joules.

And if you generate, use, transfer, or consume 1 Joule of
energy every second, then we say that the 'power' is '1 watt'.

A satellite, orbiting the earth at the equator at an altitude of 400 km, has an antenna that can be modeled as a 1.76-m-long rod
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

The inducerd emf is 1.08 V

Solution:

As per the question:

Altitude of the satellite, H = 400 km

Length of the antenna, l = 1.76 m

Magnetic field, B = 8.0\times 10^{- 5}\ T

Now,

When a conducting rod moves in a uniform magnetic field linearly with velocity, v, then the potential difference due to its motion is given by:

e = - l(vec{v}\times \vec{B})

Here, velocity v is perpendicular to the rod

Thus

e = lvB           (1)

For the orbital velocity of the satellite at an altitude, H:

v = \sqrt{\frac{Gm_{E}}{R_{E}} + H}

where

G = Gravitational constant

m_{e} = 5.972\times 10^{24}\ kg = mass of earth

R_{E} = 6371\ km = radius of earth

v = \sqrt{\frac{6.67\times 10^{- 11}\times 5.972\times 10^{24}}{6371\times 1000 + 400\times 1000} = 7670.018\ m/s

Using this value value in eqn (1):

e = 1.76\times 7670.018\times 8.0\times 10^{- 5} = 1.08\ V
