Answer: Earth's Core

Explanation:

Earth's core provides heat to magma in the mantle, causing it to flow towards the lithosphere. This magma eventually cools and flows back towards the core, forming a convection cell.

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Mantle convection is the very slow creeping motion of Earth's solid silicate mantle caused by convection currents carrying heat from the interior to the planet's surface. The Earth's surface lithosphere rides atop the asthenosphere and the two form the components of the upper mantle.

How much heat do you need to raise the temperature of 150 g of oxygen from -30c to -15c?
Naddika [18.5K]
The amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of a substance by \Delta T is given by
Q=m C_s \Delta T
where
m is the mass of the substance
Cs is its specific heat capacity
\Delta T is the increase in temperature

For oxygen, the specific heat capacity is approximately 
C_s = 0.92 J/(g K)
The variation of temperature for the sample in our problem is 
\Delta T= -15^{\circ}C-(-30^{\circ} C)=+15^{\circ}C=15 K
while the mass is m=150 g, so the amount of heat needed is
Q=m C_s \Delta T=(150 g)(0.92 J/g K)(15 K)=2070 J

Ten high-technology batteries are tested for 200 hours each. One failed at 20 hours; another failed at 140 hours; all others com
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Failure rate   = 20%

MTBF = 880 hours

Explanation:

given data

batteries = 10

tested = 200 hours

one failed = 20 hours

another fail at =  140 hours

solution

we know that Mean Time between Failures is express as = (Total up time) ÷  (number of breakdowns)    ....................1

so here Total up time will be

Total up time = 200 × 10

Total up time = 2000

and here

Number of breakdown = 1 at 20 hour and another at 140 hour = 2

so it will be  = (Total up time) ÷ (number of breakdowns)      .......2

=  \frac{2000}{2}   =  1000  

so here gap between occurrences is

gap between occurrences=  140 - 20

gap between occurrences = 120 hour

and

MTBF  will be

MTBF = 1000 - 120

MTBF = 880 hours  

and

Failure rate (FR)  will be

Failure rate (FR) =  1 ÷ MTBF    ................3

Failure rate (FR) = R÷T     ......................4

as here R is the number of failures and T is total time

so Failure rate (FR)  = 20%

how does inertia explain the movement of your body when a car in which you are riding comes to a sudden stop? (8 sentences)
nydimaria [60]
Your body continues to move unless stopped by the seatbelt. An object in motion will remain in motion. Since your body was already moving it will continue to.
