<h2>Oceanic Crust - Answer</h2>

Like continental crust, however, oceanic crust is destroyed in subduction zones. The lavas are generally of two types: pillow lavas and sheet flows. Pillow lavas appear to be shaped exactly as the name implies—like large overstuffed pillows about 1 metre (3 feet) in cross section and 1 to several metres long.

Which of the following is an example of Newton's second law of motion?
laiz [17]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Newton’s Second Law of Motion

Newton’s Second Law of Motion states that ‘when an object is acted on by an outside force, the mass of the object equals the strength of the force times the resulting acceleration’.

This can be demonstrated dropping a rock or and tissue at the same time from a ladder. They fall at an equal rate—their acceleration is constant due to the force of gravity acting on them.

The rock's impact will be a much greater force when it hits the ground, because of its greater mass. If you drop the two objects into a dish of water, you can see how different the force of impact for each object was, based on the splash made in the water by each one.

A hot-air balloon is rising straight up with a speed of 4.6 m/s. a ballast bag is released from rest relative to the balloon at
kherson [118]

The time taken by the ballast bag to reach the ground is 2.18 s

The ballast bag at rest with respect to the balloon has the upward velocity (u) of 4.6 m/s , which is the velocity of the balloon. When it is dropped from the balloon, its motion is similar to an object thrown upwards with an initial velocity <em>u </em>and it falls under the acceleration due to gravity<em> g.</em>

Taking the upward direction as positive and the downward direction as negative, the following equation of motion may be used.

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

The bag makes a net displacement <em>s</em> of 13.4 m downwards, hence

s=-13.4 m

Its initial velocity is

u=+4.6 m/s

The acceleration due to gravity acts downwards and hence it is negative.

g=-9.8 m/s^2

Use the values in the equation of motion and write an equation for t.

s=ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2 \\ -13.4=4.6t-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^2\\ 4.9t^2-4.6t-13.4=0

Solving the equation for t and taking only the positive value for t,

t=2.18 s
