The part that it played was in the changing of the environment/climate for the organisms that live on those continents. And the part it could've played was the way that the organisms had to adapt to that climate and it stayed that way over generations.

Capacitors, C1 = 1.0 F and C2 = 1.0 F, are connected in parallel to a 6.0 volt battery (ΔV = 6.0V). If the battery is disconnect
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

66.2 sec

Explanation:

C₁ = 1.0 F

C₂ = 1.0 F

ΔV = Potential difference across the capacitor = 6.0 V

C = parallel combination of capacitors

Parallel combination of capacitors is given as

C = C₁ + C₂

C = 1.0 + 1.0

C = 2.0 F

R = resistance = 33 Ω

Time constant is given as

T = RC

T = 33 x 2

T = 66 sec

V₀ = initial potential difference across the combination = 6.0 Volts

V = final potential difference = 2.2 volts

Using the equation

V = V_{o} e^{\frac{-t}{T}}

2.2 = 6 e^{\frac{-t}{66}}

t = 66.2 sec

The 4kg head of a sledge hammer is moving at 6m/s when it strikes a chisel, driving it into a log. The duration of the impact (o
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

The average impact force is 12000 newtons.

Explanation:

By Impact Theorem we know that impact done by the sledge hammer on the chisel is equal to the change in the linear momentum of the former. The mathematical model that represents the situation is now described:

\bar F \cdot \Delta t = m \cdot  (v_{2}-v_{1}) (1)

Where:

\bar F - Average impact force, in newtons.

\Delta t - Duration of the impact, in seconds.

m - Mass of the sledge hammer, in kilograms.

v_{1}, v_{2} - Initial and final velocity, in meters per second.

If we know that \Delta t = 0.0020\,s, m = 4\,kg, v_{1} = -6\,\frac{m}{s} and v_{2} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}, then we estimate the average impact force is:

\bar F = \frac{m\cdot  (v_{2}-v_{1})}{\Delta t}

\bar F = 12000\,N

The average impact force is 12000 newtons.

Weak magnetic fields can be measured at the surface of the brain. Although the currents causing these fields are quite complicat
STALIN [3.7K]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to a magnetic field in spheres.

By definition we know that the magnetic field in a sphere can be described as

B = \frac{\mu_0}{2}\frac{Ia^2}{(z^2+a^2)^{3/2}}

Where,

a = Radius

z = Distance to the magnetic field

I = Current

\mu_0 = Permeability constant in free space

Our values are given as

D=2a = 16cm \rightarrow diameter of the sphere then,

a = 0.08m

Thus z = a

B = \frac{\mu_0}{2}\frac{Ia^2}{(a^2+a^2)^{3/2}}

B = \frac{\mu_0I}{2(2^{3/2})a}

B = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2^{5/2}a}

Re-arrange to find I,

I = \frac{2^{5/2}Ba}{\mu_0}

I = \frac{2^{5/2}(3*10^{-12})(8*10^{-2})}{4\pi*10^{-7}}

I = 1.08*10^{-6}A

Therefore the current at the pole of this sphere is 1.08*10^{-6}A

What happens to a light wave when it travels from air into glass?
tino4ka555 [31]
Light is refracted when it crosses the interface from air to glass in which it moves more slowly.
Since the light speed changes at the interface, the wave length of the light must change too. The wave length decreases as the light enter the medium and the light wave changes direction.
