Explain how carbon is cycled between the hydrosphere and geosphere. Use specific examples.

1 answer:

5 0

Carbon is found in the solid form in geosphere of our earth. Coal and oil are some of the examples of materials containing carbon in the geosphere. when the coal or oil is burnt, carbon dioxide is formed and released in atmosphere. This carbon dioxide is absorbed by the water of the hydrosphere with the help of algae and plankton. The water turns acidic in nature. This way carbon is transferred from geosphere to hydrosphere.

What is the ratio of the intensities of an earthquake P wave passing through the Earth and detected at two points 14 km and 49 k

Molodets [167]

Answer:

$\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=12.25$

Explanation:

$r_1$ = 14 km

$r_2$ = 49 km

Intensity of a wave is inversely proportional to distance

$I\propto \dfrac{1}{r^2}$

So,

$\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{r_2^2}{r_1^2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{49^2}{14^2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=12.25$

The ratio of the intensities is $\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=12.25$

How do I differentiate between final and initial velocity in Physics?

pychu [463]

Answer:

Initial velocity describes how fast an object travels when gravity first applies force on the object. On the other hand, the final velocity is a vector quantity that measures the speed and direction of a moving body after it has reached its maximum acceleration.
