Question: Which statement best explains why Earth’s outer core is in liquid form?
The iron-nickel alloy melts due to hot temperatures.
The outer core has a tarry consistency.
This region is less dense when compared to the mantle.
This region is under extreme pressure from the weight of other layers.
Answer:
The statement here that bet describes the Earth's outer core is in liquid form " The iron-nickel alloy melts due to hot temperatures."
Explanation:
The outer core of the Earth's is made up of fluid layer which is about 2400 km thick and basically made from iron as well as nickel alloy. This layer lies just above the solid inner core and below it mantle is present. The core of the Earth works like a furnace for the whole composition. It holds the intense heat as well as pressure that helps is maintaining the iron and nickel in the molten state.
Which of these statements is most likely correct about the stars?
Star 2 attracts Star 1 with a greater gravitational force than Star 1 attracts Star 2.
No, because Third Newton Law states that both forces are equal in magnitude.
Earth exerts almost equal gravitation force on both the stars.
No, because the Universal Gravitational Law, estblished by Newton, states the atraction force to two masses is proportional to the product of the masses.
Star 1 attracts Star 2 with a greater gravitational force than Star 2 attracts Star 1.
No (same reason for the first statement)
Earth exerts greater gravitation force on Star 2 than on Star 1.
Right. This is the correct statement. Given the mass of Star 2 is greater than the mass of Star 1, by the Universal Gravitational Law, the earth exerts greater gravitational attraction on Star 2.
Th correct answer is letter A. Echo sounding is very useful for depth profiles where SONAR is used to determine the depth of water through the transmission of sound pulses. It is calculated by checking the interval between the mission and the pulse that is recorded within the SONAR device.
Calhoun was vice president of the United States in 1824 under John Quincy Adams and was re-elected in 1828 under Andrew Jackson. Jackson was for the Tariff of 1828 and caused Calhoun to be opposed to Jackson, which led to Calhoun's resignation in 1832.
