<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.

The propeller of a World War II fighter plane is 2.30 m in diameter. (a) What is its angular velocity in radians per second if i

Sergio [31]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Diameter of fighter plane=2.3 m

Radius= $r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{2.3}{2}=1.15 m$

a.We have to find the angular velocity in radians per second if it spins=1200 rev/min

Frequency= $\frac{1200}{60}=20 Hz$

1 minute=60 seconds

Angular velocity= $\omega=2\pi f$

Angular velocity= $2\times \frac{22}{7}\times 20=125.7 rad/s$

b.We have to find the linear speed of its tip at this angular velocity if the plane is stationary on the tarmac.

$v=r\omega=1.15\times 125.7=144.56 m/s$

c.Centripetal acceleration= $\omega^2 r=(125.7)^2(1.15)=18170.56 m/s^2$

Centripetal acceleration== $\frac{18170.56\times g}{9.81}=1852.25 g m/s^2$

How to find volume of a cuboid in cm3

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

we have to use formula of volume to find volume of a cuboid. ( i.e v = l ×b ×h)

Explanation:

here, let your length of cuboid be x cm, breadth be y cm and height be z cm .

now, formula to find volume of cuboid = length ×

breadth × height.

so, v( volume)= l (length)× b (breadth)× h (height)

or, v= x cm × y cm × z cm

therefore, volume is xyz cm^3..... answer.

hope it helps..

If the distance to a point source of sound is doubled, by what multiplicative factor does the intensity change?

alina1380 [7]

If the distance to a point source of sound is doubled, by a multiplicative factor of 4, the intensity changes.

Intensity of sound is the sound which is perpendicular to sound wave propogation per unit area. It is dependent on the Surface of source sound.

Intensity is the Power per unit area. Its SI unit is Watt/m².

As we move away from a source of sound, the sound starts to diminish. This is due to the decreasing sound intensity with distance.

It can also be understood by the fact that on increasing distance, the Power radiated by the source spreads over a larger area. Hence, the Intensity decreases gradually.

Since, Intensity is proportional to the square of the distance.

Hence, on doubling the distance, Intensity reduces to one fourth of the initial intensity or reduces by a multiplicative factor of 4.

Which factors affect heat transfer between a warm and a cool substance?

andrey2020 [161]

Answer: B

Explanation:

It's not the time it took to heat the substance, so that rules out A and C.

This means that we only have to choose between

B. the area of contact

D. the area of the substances

(since everything else in each of those answers are the same)

Area of contact matters more (e.g. an object with greater surface area is exposed to the air more, will lose/gain heat quicker than an object with less surface area).
