3 0

A force that acts on rock to change its shape or volume (the amount of space a rock takes up) is stress. Stress adds energy to the rock. The energy is stored in the rock until it changes shape or breaks. Three different kinds of stress can occur in the crust—tension, compression, and shearing.

Cloud [144]

Answer:

Explanation:

a is the acceleration

μ is the coefficient of friction

Acceleration of the object is given by

$a = g (\sin \theta -\mu \cos \theta)\\\\=10( \sin 30 - 0.4 \cos 30)\\\\=10(0.5-0.3464)\\\\=1.54m/s^2$

Velocity at the bottom

$v^2=u^2+2as\\\\u=0\\\\v^2=2as\\\\=2*1.54*8\\\\=24.576\\\\v=4.96m/s$

after travelling 4m , its velocity becomes 0

$a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}$

$a=\frac{0-u^2}{2s}$

$a=\frac{-(-4.96)^2}{2*4} \\\\=-3.075m/s^2$

Coefficient of kinetic friction

μ = F/N

$=\frac{ma}{mg} \\\\=\frac{3.075}{10} \\\\=0.31$

Therefore, the Coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.31

Find the volume of the irregular object a marble

Lostsunrise [7]

By using Displacement method we can find volume of irregular object like marble.

<h3>What is displacement method?</h3>

In displacement method,

First , we measuring the volume of water displaced by an object which tell us the volume of the object.

Secondly We can use the physical balance to determine its mass.

Lastly , calculate the density by dividing the mass by the volume.

Procedure to find the Volume of irregular object i.e. marble

step 1 - Fill the graduated cylinder about half full and measure the initial volume of water.

step 2 - Drop the marble in the graduated cylinder.

step 3 -Now measure the final level of water.

Step 4 - Subtract both the values.

Here , comes the Volume of Irregular Object.

Which statements provides evidence that the earth revolves around the sun

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Different star constellations are visible from Earth at different seasons of the year.

Explanation:

The reason the fact that we can see different constellations in the sky during different seasons on earth is the most compelling reason we travel around the sun is because if the sun travelled around the earth, certain constellations would only be visible in certain places. You’d have to travel to see certain ones.

However, you don’t have to do that because we travel around the sun, therefore travelling around other stars too.

Two equipotential surfaces surround a +3.10 x 10-8-c point charge. how far is the 290-v surface from the 41.0-v surface?

MrMuchimi

T<span>he equation to be used here to determine the distance between two equipotential points is:
V = k * Q / r

where v is the voltage of the point, k is a constant, Q is charge of the point measured in coloumbs and r is the distance.
In this case, we can use ratio of proportions to determine the distance between the two points. in this respect,

Point 1:
V = k * Q / r = 290
r = k*Q/290 ; kQ = 290r

Point 2:
V = k * Q / R = 41
R = k*Q/41
from equation 10 kQ = 290r
R = 290/(41)= 7.07 m
The distance between the two points then is equal to 7.07 m.
