Why does magma rise from depth to the surface of the earth?

Physics

Viefleur [7K]3 years ago

Answer

Magma is less dense compared to the surrounding rock.

the overlying rock creates pressure which forces the magma to be directed upward.

Explanation:

at high temperatures the magma is liquid form with the high energy which causes the formation of bonds and the pressure build up creates the increase  channeling of the liquid.as the temperature decreases the magma moves into the surface

Explanation:

Any rock will melt once it reaches a high enough temperature. This liquid rock is known as magma when it is beneath the crust of the Earth. If it bubbles to the surface and pushes its way out, it is known as lava. This happens most often in a volcano.

Magma rising from the depth occurs when hot mantle rock rises to shallower depths in the Earth because it is less dense than surrounding rock and because the weight of the overlying rock creates pressure that squeezes magma upward.

An airplane flew from San Francisco to Washington, D.C. Approximately
Arada [10]

Answer:

The solution is given below:

Explanation:

The computation of the speed is shown below

As we know that

Speed = distance ÷ time

where

distance is 2000 km

And, the time is 2.5 hours

SO, the speed is

= 2,000 ÷ 2.5

= 800 km/h

Now the distance would be the same i.e. 2,000 km

but the time is 2 hours

So, the speed is

= 2,000 km ÷ 2 hours

= 1,000 km/hr

The direction should be opposite to the first airplane

The principle of work states that the ratio of work output to work input is always
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

work output is always less than work input - the ratio is less than 1.

Explanation:

This principle comes from the fact that a machine or system cannot produce more work than is supplied to it, because this would violate the energy conservation law (work is a type of mechanical energy).

In theoretical machines called "ideal machines" the input work is the same as the output work, but these machines are only theoretical because in real applications there is always some type of energy loss, either in heat produced by a machine or processes for its operation, for this reason the output work is always less than the input work.

Regarding the ratio work output to work input:

\frac{WO}{WI} < 1

because work input WI is always greater than work output WO.

The ball has 7.35 joules of potential energy at position B. At position A, all of the energy changes to kinetic energy. The velo
Lina20 [59]
I assume that the ball is stationary (v=0) at point B, so its total energy is just potential energy, and it is equal to 7.35 J. 
At point A, all this energy has converted into kinetic energy, which is:
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
And since K=7.35 J, we can find the velocity, v:
v= \sqrt{ \frac{2K}{m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{2 \cdot 7.35 J}{1.5 kg} }=3.1 m/s

ira [324]

Answer:

517.5Ns

Explanation:

F=(MV - MU)/t

where MV - MU is the change in momentum,

therefore, MV - MU = Ft

= 345 X 1.

= 517.5Ns
