The portion of earth underneath the crust containing the asthenosphere and the mesosphere is the
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

The portion of earth underneath the crust containing the asthenosphere  and mesosphere is outer core and inner core .

Explanation:

The outer core of the earth is ball of very hot metals . Its temperature is hot enough to melt all metals into liquid state . This is mainly composed of the melted metals nickel and iron . This has got got temperature between 4000 degrees to 9000 degrees .

Inner core is underneath the outer core ,Here the pressure is too high and this makes the metals squeezed and not even able to move like liquid . They are forced to vibrate just like a solid . This has got a thickness of 800 miles . The pressure here is comparably 3,000,000 times the air pressure at sea level.

a student drops an object from the top of a building which is 19.6 m high. How long does it take the object to fall to the groun
zubka84 [21]

Here's a formula that's simple and useful, and if you're really in
high school physics, I'd be surprised if you haven't see it before. 
This one is so simple and useful that I'd suggest memorizing it,
so it's always in your toolbox.

This formula tells how far an object travels in how much time,
when it's accelerating:

               Distance = (1/2 acceleration) x (Time²).

                           D = 1/2 A T²

For your student who dropped an object out of the window,

     Distance = 19.6 m
     Acceleration = gravity = 9.8 m/s²

                                              D = 1/2 G T²

                                          19.6 =   4.9   T²

Divide each side by 4.9 :       4  =           T²

Square root each side:           2  =          T

When an object is dropped in Earth gravity,
it takes  2  seconds to fall the first 19.6 meters.
