Answer:

  1. Composed primarily of silicate rocks or metals
  2. Central metallic core, mostly iron, with a surrounding silicate mantle
  3. Can have canyons, craters, mountains, volcanoes, and other surface structures

Explanation:

We can start saying that a terrestrial planet or telluric planet or rocky planet is kind of planet that is<u> composed primarily of silicate rocks or metals</u> , this the principle characteristic of this planets.    

This planets have a <u>solid surface</u>, making them substantially different from the gaseous planets, for instance Jupiter or Saturn, which are composed predominantly of some combination of hydrogen, helium, and water.

All terrestrial planets in the Solar System, for example, have the same basic type of structure, such as a <u>central metallic core</u>, <u>mostly iron, with a surrounding silicate mantle.</u> The Moon in our planet is similar, but has a much smaller iron core, another example of natural satellites are Io and Europa that have internal structures similar to that of terrestrial planets.  Also, is important says that terrestrial planets can have <u>canyons, craters, mountains, volcanoes, and other surface structures</u>, depending on the presence of water and tectonic activity.

I hope it helps you!

Through which medium is it impossible to transmit sound waves?.
dusya [7]

Answer: vacuum

Explanation: The vacuum is the medium from where the sound wave cannot pass. A vacuum is basically an area without any air. Since the sound wave is a mechanical wave that's why it cannot travel through a medium where there is no matter of vibrations to works in, i.e, it can't travel through a vacuum.

Vlada [557]

Answer:

Vmax=11.53 m/s

Explanation:

from conservation of energy

      E_A} =E_{B}

     Spring potential energy =potential energy due to elevation

   0.5*k*x²= mg(h_{B}-h_{A} )=mgh

   0.5*k*2.3²= 430*9.81*6

         k=9568.92 N/m

For safety reason

                                 k"=1.13 *k= 1.13*9568.92

                                    k"=10812.88 N/m

agsin from conservation of energy

      E_A} =E_{C}

    spring potential energy=change in kinetic energy

   0.5*k"*x²=0.5*m*V_{max}^{2}

      10812.88 *2.3²=430*V_{max}^{2}

           V_{max}=11.53 m/s

A simple pendulum consists of a point mass suspended by a weightless, rigid wire in a uniform gravitation field. Check all that
9966 [12]

Answer:

f.The period is independent of the suspended mass.

Explanation:

The period of a pendulum is given by

T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

where

L is the length of the pendulum

g is the acceleration due to gravity

From the formula, we see that:

1) the period of the pendulum depends only on its length, L, and it is proportional to the square root of the length

2) the period does not depend neither on the mass of the pendulum, nor on its amplitude of oscillation

So, the only correct statements are

f.The period is independent of the suspended mass.

Note: statement "e.The period is proportional to the length of the wire" is also wrong, because the period is NOT proportional to the length of the wire, but it is proportional to the square root of it.

If hydrogen and helium are the most abundant elements in the unoverse , then why are living organisms composed primarily of carb
Mumz [18]

Answer:

Most of materia isnt life.

Explanation:

The living organisms (life) aren't the most abundant thing in universe.

Hydrogen and helium are present in everywhere, but life isn't.

There is no reason to think because we have a lot of a thing, the life must be made for this thing.

The organic life just can exists because some mysterious properties about carbon, that is the basic foundation of life, carbon is a special element, why? We don't know, actually, it's a huge problem for science discover why the carbon can makes life be possible and other elements can't. But we know is this element that makes life possible.

So, note there isn't relation about the quantity of a material in Universe and the life constituition. In addition, look around, organic materials are very rare in Universe, Earth is one in lots of places and in most of this places there isn't sign of life.

Even in Earth the life looks abundant, in Universe it isn't, the same way in Universe the Hydrogen and Helium are abudant, in Earth isn't soo.
