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.

What is the electric potential energy of an electron at the negative end of the cable, relative to the positive end of the cable

VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

Electric potential energy at the negative terminal: $1.92\cdot 10^{-18}J$

Explanation:

When a particle with charge $q$ travels across a potential difference $\Delta V$ , then its change in electric potential energy is

$\Delta U = q \Delta V$

In this problem, we know that:

The particle is an electron, so its charge is

$q=-1.60\cdot 10^{-19}C$

We also know that the positive terminal is at potential

$V_+=0V$

While the negative terminal is at potential

$V_-=-12 V$

Therefore, the potential difference (final minus initial) is

$\Delta V = -12-0 = -12 V$

So, the change in potential energy of the electron is

$\Delta U = (-1.6\cdot 10^{-19})(-12)=1.92\cdot 10^{-18}J$

This means that the electron when it is at the negative terminal has $1.92\cdot 10^{-18}J$ of energy more than when it is at the positive terminal.

Since the potential at the positive terminal is 0, this means that the electric potential energy of the electron at the negative end is

$1.92\cdot 10^{-18}J$

A force F of magnitude 2x^3 is applied to stop a particle moving with an initial velocity of v0. The particle travels from x=0 t

3241004551 [841]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that

F=2x³

Work is given as

The range of x is from x=0 to x=D

W=-∫f(x)dx

Then,

W=-∫2x³dx from x=0 to x=D

W=- 2x⁴/4 from x=0 to x=D

W=-2(D⁴/4-0/4)

W=-D⁴/2

W=1/2D⁴

The correct answer is F

The acceleration of the car with the data in the table above would be

neonofarm [45]

The acceleration of the car would be 0.33 first and then it would be 0.17.

<u>Explanation:</u>

An applied force is a force that is applied to an object by an individual or another item. On the off chance that an individual is pushing a work area over the room, at that point there is an applied power following up on the article. The applied power is the power applied on the work area by the individual.

The net force applied to the object rises to the mass of the article increased by the measure of its acceleration. The net power following up on the soccer ball is equivalent to the mass of the soccer ball duplicated by its adjustment in speed each second (its acceleration).

A rectangular box has side 10cm x 5cm x 2cm. If it lies on a horizontal surface and has weight 1.00N, calculate the maximum and

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

P max = 1000 pa

P min = 200 pa

Explanation:

P = F/A

pressure will be maximum when surface gets minimum. so to find the maximum amount of pressure we need to calculate the minimum surface. it is 2cm×5cm = 10cm² = 0.001m² . then we have:

P = 1 / 0.001 = 1000 pa

to find minimum pressure the surface that must be chosen is 10cm×5cm = 50cm² = 0.005m² .

P = 1 / 0.005 = 200 pa
