Answers:

a) $2.82(10)^{21} kg$

b) $1410 J$

c) $36.62 m/s$

Explanation:

<h3>a) Mass of the continent</h3>

Density $\rho$ is defined as a relation between mass $m$ and volume $V$ :

$\rho=\frac{m}{V}$ (1)

Where:

$\rho=2720 kg/m^{3}$ is the average density of the continent

$m$ is the mass of the continent

$V$ is the volume of the continent, which can be estimated is we assume it as a a slab of rock 5300 km on a side and 37 km deep:

$V=(length)(width)(depth)=(5300 km)(5300 km)(37 km)=1,030,330,000 km^{3} \frac{(1000 m)^{3}}{1 km^{3}}=1.03933(10)^{18} m^{3}$

Finding the mass:

$m=\rho V$ (2)

$m=(2720 kg/m^{3})(1.03933(10)^{18} m^{3})$ (3)

$m=2.82(10)^{21} kg$ (4) This is the mass of the continent

<h3>b) Kinetic energy of the continent</h3>

Kinetic energy $K$ is given by the following equation:

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}$ (5)

Where:

$m=2.82(10)^{21} kg$ is the mass of the continent

$v=4.8 \frac{cm}{year} \frac{1 m}{100 cm} \frac{1 year}{365 days} \frac{1 day}{24 hours} \frac{1 hour}{3600 s}=1(10)^{-9} m/s$ is the velocity of the continent

$K=\frac{1}{2}(2.82(10)^{21} kg)(1(10)^{-9} m/s)^{2}$ (6)

$K=1410 J$ (7) This is the kinetic energy of the continent

<h3>c) Speed of the jogger</h3>

If we have a jogger with mass $m=77 kg$ and the same kinetic energy as that of the continent $1413 J$ , we can find its velocity by isolating $v$ from (5):

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2 K}{m}}$ (6)

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2 (1413 J)}{77 kg}}$

Finally:

$v=36.62 m/s$ This is the speed of the jogger

According to relativity theory, if a space trip finds a son or daughter biologically older than his or her parents, then the spa

Valentin [98]

Answer:

B. parents

Explanation:

one of the conclusions from Einsteins relativity theory for his equation E= $mC^{2}$ (where E is energy, m is mass and C is the speed of light),

is that time moves relative to the observer. Time moves more slowly when the observer is in motion (time dilation), therefore an individual in motion ages more slowly than someone at rest. This in fact happened when astronaut Scot Kelly spent nearly a year on board the international space station and on his return, his twin brother had aged slightly faster than him. In conclusion, if a space trip finds a son or daughter is biologically older than his or her parents, the space trip was taken by the parents.

What material or device prevents the conducting of electricity?

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

An insulator. You can see ceramic insulators on telephone poles and power poles if you look carefully. If you live in a city, somewhere in that city is a power station. The insulators are huge. They have to be. The currents are very large in many cases.

B) If the actual counterweight fitted to this boom was

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

50 N

4.2 N

Explanation:

i) The force needed to balance the boom is 2400 N. If the weight of the counterbalance is 2350 N, then the downward force the park attendant must apply is 50 N.

ii) When the boom is resting on the end support, the normal force is:

∑τ = Iα

-W (0.50) + F (3.0) − N (6.0) = 0

-0.50 W + 3.0 F = 6.0 N

N = (-0.50 W + 3.0 F) / 6.0

N = (-0.50 × 2350 + 3.0 × 400) / 6.0

N ≈ 4.2
