Answer: is option C: <em>Prolonged periods of cooling and warming</em>.

Explanation:

In the history of Earth, climate varies time to time. At times, the Earth's atmosphere was much hotter and humid as compare to the present time, but similarly it has been noticed that climate also has been much colder than he present time, whereas the number of glaciers covers much of the Earth's surface. There are two kinds of periods in which we further classified Earth's climate namely, Glacial period, and Inter-glacial periods. It has been noticed that the average global temperature of Earth during glacial periods was around 5.5°C or 10°F, which is less than Earth's present climate. On the other hand, during inter-glacial periods Earth's temperature was about 1.1°C or 2.0°F, which is again higher as compared to current temperature. Over the past 900,000 years, Earth's temperature varied less than 5°C. Scientist believe by looking at the Earth's climate history, that glaciers will proceed again in formation, but it will take thousands of years.

Two electric charges A and B were placed facing each other at a distance of separation "r". The common electrostatic force betwe

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

From the formula of force:

$F = \frac{kAB}{ {r}^{2} } \\$

since AB and k are constants:

$F \: \alpha \: \frac{1}{ {r}^{2} } \\ \\ F = \frac{x}{ {r}^{2} }$

x is a constant of proportionality

• when force is 4N, separation distance is 1

$4 = \frac{x}{1} \\ x = 4$

therefore, equation becomes

$F = \frac{4}{ {r}^{2} } \\$

when r is doubled, r becomes 2. find F:

$F = \frac{4}{ {2}^{2} } \\ \\ F = \frac{4}{4} \\ \\ { \underline{force \: is \: 1N}}$

Answer:

is in the earths orbit

Explanation:

for Suzie to hover in space beside the rotating space station, she and the center of mass of the space station are at relative rest which happens when space station is in Earth orbit, hence she is in the earths orbit.

A 0.75 kg book is pushed across the table with an acceleration of 0.3 m/s2. What force is being applied to the

Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 0.225 \ Newtons}}$

Explanation:

We are asked to find the force being applied to a book. According to Newton's Second Law of Motion, force is the product of mass and acceleration.

$F= ma$

The mass of the book is 0.75 kilograms and the acceleration is 0.3 meters per square second. Substitute these values into the formula.

m= 0.75 kg
a= 0.3 m/s²

$F= 0.75 \ kg * 0.3 \ m/s^2$

Multiply.

$F =0.225 \ kg * m/s^2$

1 kilogram meter per second squared is equal to 1 Newton. Therefore, our answer of 0.225 kilogram meters per second squared is equal to 0.225 Newtons.

$F= 0.225 \ N$

<u>0.225 Newtons of force</u> are applied to the book.

Answer:

The racetrack is 996.7 meters long

Explanation:

Convert 251km/h to km/s (kilometers per second)

3600 seconds in an hour, so:

251/3600 = 0.0697km/s

Convert km/s to m/s (meters per second)

1000 meters in a kilometer, so:

0.0697*1000 = 69.7m/s

Find length of racetrack:

69.7m/s*14.3s = 996.7m

If the racer travels 69.7 meters in one second and it takes 14.3 seconds to complete a lap, the racetrack is 996.7 meters long.
