Why does japan have so many volcanoes? •paragraph

Physics
1 answer:
AlladinOne [14]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

This reason is that Japan is located along the Pacific 'ring of fire' which is an area along the Pacific plate boundaries where there is a lot of volcanic activity

Explanation:

Japan also lies on the edges of several continental and oceanic plates so this is why Japan experiences a lot of earthquakes.

Imagine a universe in which, like in ours, there are two kinds of charges (positive and negative), with the like charges repelli
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

the static charge is not always distributed on the surface of the conductor, there are also charges in the volume but of lesser magnitude

Explanation:

In this hypothetical system the electric force is of type

       F = k' \frac{q_1 q_2 }{r^2}

in this case the force decays to zero much faster,

if we call Fo the force of Coulomb's law

         F₀ = k \frac{q_1 q_2 }{r^2}

assuming the constant k is the same

the relationship between the two forces is

        F / F₀ = 1 / r

        F = F₀ / r

when analyzing this expression the force decays much faster to zero.

In an electric conductor, charges of the same sign may not feel any repulsive force from other charges that are at a medium distance, so there is a probability that some charges are distributed in the volume of the material, this does not happen with coulomb's law

Consequently, the static charge is not always distributed on the surface of the conductor, there are also charges in the volume but of lesser magnitude

How can wind put off fire?
kipiarov [429]
♥ If the wind is strong enough it can do so.
♥ By having a strong enough wind you can blow out the fire before the flame can consume any more vapor.
♥ If the wind is fast enough, like a birthday cake candle for example, the wind will burn out.

Suppose one night the radius of the earth doubled but its mass stayed the same. What would be an approximate new value for the f
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

g' = g/4

Explanation:

  • The value of the free-fall acceleration at the surface of the earth, can be obtained applying Newton's 2nd law, assuming that the only force acting on an object at the surface of the earth, is the one produced by the mass of the Earth, i.e. gravity.
  • This force can be expressed according  the Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation , as follows:

       F_{g} = G*\frac{m_{x} *m_{E} }{r_{E}^{2} }  (1)

  • From Newton's 2nd Law, we have:
  • F = m* a (2)
  • Since the left sides in (1) and (2) are equal each other, both right sides must be equal each other also.
  • Simplifying the mass m, we can write the acceleration a in (2) as the acceleration due to gravity, g, as follows:

       g = G*\frac{m_{E} }{r_{E}^{2} }  (3)

  • Since G is an universal constant, and the mass mE remains constant, if we double the radius of  the Earth, the new value for the acceleration due to gravity (let's call it g'), is as follows:

        g' = G*\frac{m_{E} }{(2r_{E})^{2} } =G*\frac{m_{E} }{4*r_{E}^{2} }  = g*\frac{1}{4}  =\frac{g}{4} (4)

Which instrument, a cello or a violin, produces a higher-pitched sound? Explain your answer.
anastassius [24]
I'm pretty sure a violin produces a higher-pitched sound. I play the violin and it's pretty loud. (Hope this helps)
