C) a solid lower part and a liquid upper part

Explanation:

The physical nature of the earth's core is made up of a solid lower part and a liquid upper part.

The core is the innermost part of the earth and it is made up of metallic minerals.

It has the highest temperature and pressure of all the layers of the earth.
The core is divided into two. Outer and inner core.
Outer core is made up of molten metallic minerals. It is the layer where the earth geomagnetic field originates.
The inner core is solid metallic ball.
Evidence from seismic waves has furnished geoscientists with this knowledge.

Starting at its rightmost position, it takes 2 seconds for the pendulum of a grandfather clock to swing a horizontal distance of

sdas [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is b, x = 9 cos (pi / 2 t)

Explanation:

The equation that describes a simple pendulum is

θ = θ₀ cos (wt + φ)

The angle is measured is radians

θ = x / L

We replace

d / L = x₀ / L cos (wt + φ)

x₀ = 9 in

We replace

d = 9 cos (wt + φ)

Angular velocity is related to frequency and period.

w = 2π f = 2π / T

The period is the time of a complete oscillation T = 4 s

w =2π / 4

w = π / 2

Let's replace

x = 9 cos (π/2 t + φ)

As the system is released from the root x = x₀ for t = 0 s

x₀ = x₀ cos φ

Cos φ = 1

φ = 0°

The final equation is

x = 9 cos (pi / 2 t)

The correct answer is b

How much kinetic energy does a 1500 kg car have if it’s moving at 15 m/s

Tresset [83]

Answer:

Mass of car m = 1500 kg

velocity v = 15 m/s

kinetic energy = ½ mv2

= ½ x 1500 x (15)2

= 1687501 kg m2 /s2

= 168750J

A uniform magnetic field is perpendicular to the plane of a circular loop of diameter 13 cm formed from wire of diameter 2.6 mm

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

Rate of change of magnetic field is $3.466\times 10^3T/sec$

Explanation:

We have given diameter of the circular loop is 13 cm = 0.13 m

So radius of the circular loop $r=\frac{0.13}{2}=0.065m$

Length of the circular loop $L=2\pi r=2\times 3.14\times 0.065=0.4082m$

Wire is made up of diameter of 2.6 mm

So radius $r=\frac{2.6}{2}=1.3mm=0.0013m$

Cross sectional area of wire $A=\pi r^2=3.14\times0.0013^2=5.30\times 10^{-6}m^2$

Resistivity of wire $\rho =2.18\times 10^{-8}m$

Resistance of wire $R=\frac{\rho L}{A}=\frac{2.18\times 10^{-8}\times 0.4082}{5.30\times 10^{-6}}=1.67\times 10^{-3}ohm$

Current is given i = 11 A

So emf $e=11\times 1.67\times 10^{-3}=0.0183volt$

Emf induced in the coil is $e=-\frac{d\Phi }{dt}=-A\frac{dB}{dt}$

$0.0183=5.30\times 10^{-6}\times \frac{dB}{dt}$

$\frac{dB}{dt}=3.466\times 10^3=T/sec$

____ is the detection of halo objects like brown dwarfs when their gravitational fields concentrate the light of distant sources

maksim [4K]

Answer:

Microlensing.

Explanation:

This techniques is called Microlensing.

Microlensing is a method of gravitational lensing where light from a backdrop point of origin is curved to develop distorted, numerous and/or lightened images by the gravity field of a foreground lens.

This method is very effective in discovering planets that are far-far from earth.It is actually an astronomical effect that was predicted by Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity.

Solve the equation x=3logy2 for y.

melisa1 [442]

X = 3 · log(Y²)

X = 3 · 2·log(Y)

X/6 = log(Y)

10^(X/6) = 10^log(Y)
