         Work = (force) x (distance.

The force required to lift the load is its weight.

         Weight = (mass) x (gravity)

so    Work = (mass) x (gravity) x (distance)

Now  Power = (work) / (time)

so     Power  =  (mass) x (gravity) x (distance) / (time)

                      =  (700kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (2 m)  /  (0.4 sec)

                      =  ( 700 x 9.8 x 2) / (0.4)  (kg-m²/sec²) / (sec)

                      =        ( 34,300 )                  (joule)  /  (sec)

                      =                     34,300 watts .

This is one of those exercises where the math and the physics
are air-tight and bullet-proof but the answer is absurd.

34,300 watts is about 46 horsepower.  I don't care how many

<em>Anything</em> that's dropped through air is somewhat affected by air resistance.  But, out of that list, the leaf and the balloon are the items that will be affected by air resistance enough so that you can plainly see it.

If you spend some time thinking about it, you can kind of understand why airplane wings and boat propellers are shaped more like leafs and balloons than like bricks and rocks.

I believe the answer to your question is “Lithosphere plate boundaries”

The planet Earth is covered by a layer formed by land and rocks called the earth's crust or lithosphere. This crust is not smooth and uniform, but rather irregular and composed of tectonic plates, also called lithosphere plates. These plates are not fixed as they are under the magma (high temperature molten rock).

Hope this helps!:)

The amplitude of a paricular wave is 4.0 m. The crest to trough distance
kozerog [31]

Answer:

The crest to trough distance = 8 m

Explanation:

Given that,

The amplitude of a particular wave is 4.0 m.

We need to find the crest to trough distance.

We know that,

Amplitude = The distance from the base line to the crest or the the distance from the baseline to the trough.

It means,

Distance from crest to trough = 2(Amplitude)

= 2(4)

= 8 m

Hence, the crest to trough distance is equal to 8 m.
