The ability of solid rock to flow is called Plasticity.

Plasticity is the deformation of a solid mateial which resulted in non reversible changes of shape in response to applied force.

Another example of plasticity is when you bend metal through a forcer force to create an art or kitchen set

Your spaceship lands on an unknown planet. to determine the characteristics of this planet, you drop a 1.50 kg wrench from 5.50
Vesnalui [34]
1. calculate the value of acceleration that objects gains in that period of time
•calculating acceleration
5.50 = 1/2at^2
5.50*2/t^2 = a
11.00/0.657 = a
16.74=a
now you got the acceleration
2. you have laws of gravitation for that

g = Gm/r^2
where g is the acceleration value
16.74 = 6.754*10^-11 × m/ 6.28*10^4
105.14*10^4 /6.754*10-11 = m
15.567*10^15 = m
that would be the mass of the planet ...

the ocean floor is, on average, 4267 m below sea level. What is the pressure in the atmosphere at this depth?
hichkok12 [17]
The pressure at the depth h in the ocean is given by (Stevin's law)
p= p_0 + \rho g h
where
p_0 = 1.0 \cdot 10^5 Pa is the atmospheric pressure
and \rho g h is the pressure exerted by the column of water of height h=4267 m, with \rho = 1000 kg/m^3 being the water density and g=9.81 m/s^2.
Substituting, we find
p=1.0 \cdot 10^5 Pa + (1000 kg/m^3)(9.81 m/s^2)(4267 m)=4.20 \cdot 10^7 Pa
We want to convert this into atmospheres: we know that 1 atm corresponds to the atmospheric pressure at sea level, so 1 atm=1.0\cdot 10^5 Pa, therefore we just need to divide by this number:
p= \frac{4.20 \cdot 10^7 Pa}{1.0 \cdot 10^5 Pa/atm} =420 atm

A woman on a bridge 82.2 m high sees a raft floating at a constant speed on the river below. She drops a stone from rest in an a
solong [7]

Answer:

0.71 m/s

Explanation:

We find the time it takes the stone to hit the water.

Using y = ut - 1/2gt² where y = height of bridge, u = initial speed of stone = 0 m/s, g = acceleration due to gravity = -9.8 m/s² (negative since it is directed downwards)and t = time it takes the stone to hit the water surface.

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

y = ut - 1/2gt²

82.2 m = (0m/s)t - 1/2( -9.8 m/s²)t²

82.2 m = 0 + (4.9 m/s²)t²

82.2 m =  (4.9 m/s²)t²

t²  = 82.2 m/4.9 m/s²

t² = 16.78 s²

t = √16.78 s²

t = 4.1 s

This is also the time it takes the raft to move from 5.04 m before the bridge to 2.13 m before the bridge. So, the distance moved by the raft in time t = 4.1 s is 5.04 m - 2.13 m = 2.91 m.

Since speed = distance/time, the raft's speed v = 2.91 m/4.1 s = 0.71 m/s
