Answer:

Option (B)

Explanation:

The new materials are created along the mid-oceanic ridge in a divergent plate boundary.

In a divergent plate motion, the two plates move in the opposite direction. As a result of which the magma rises and comes out to the surface, that immediately cools and forms basaltic rocks and lavas. This adds new materials to the ocean floor along the mid-oceanic ridge. The rocks near the mid-oceanic ridge are the youngest and the rocks that are away from the mid-oceanic ridge are the oldest. This type of plate boundary is also known as the constructive plate boundary.

Hence, the correct answer is option (B).

A satellite that goes around the earth once every 24 hours iscalled a geosynchronous satellite. If a geosynchronoussatellite is

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

R=4.22*10⁴km

Explanation:

The tangential speed $v$ of the geosynchronous satellite is given by:

$v=\frac{2\pi R}{T}$

Because $2\pi R$ is the circumference length (the distance traveled) and T is the period (the interval of time).

Now, we know that the centripetal force of an object undergoing uniform circular motion is given by:

$F_c=\frac{mv^{2} }{R}$

If we substitute the expression for $v$ in this formula, we get:

$F_c=\frac{m(\frac{2\pi R}{T})^{2}}{R}=\frac{4m\pi ^{2}R}{T^{2}}$

Since the centripetal force is the gravitational force $F_g$ between the satellite and the Earth, we know that:

$F_g=\frac{GMm}{R^{2}}\\\\\implies \frac{GMm}{R^{2}}=\frac{4m\pi ^{2}R}{T^{2}}\\\\R^{3}=\frac{GMT^{2}}{4\pi^{2}} \\\\R=\sqrt[3]{\frac{GMT^{2}}{4\pi^{2}} }$

Where G is the gravitational constant ( $G=6.67*10^{-11} Nm^{2}/kg^{2}$ ) and M is the mass of the Earth ( $M=5.97*10^{24}kg$ ). Since the period of the geosynchronous satellite is 24 hours (equivalent to 86400 seconds), we finally can compute the radius of the satellite:

$R=\sqrt[3]{\frac{(6.67*10^{-11}Nm^{2}/kg^{2})(5.97*10^{24}kg)(86400s)^{2}}{4\pi^{2}}}\\\\R=4.22*10^{7}m=4.22*10^{4}km$

This means that the radius of the orbit of a geosynchronous satellite that circles the earth is 4.22*10⁴km.

When operated on a household 110.0 V line, typical hair dryers draw about 1650 W of power. The current can be modeled as a long,

Andre45 [30]

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage of household line, V = 110 V

Power of the hairdryer, P = 1650 W

During use, the current is about 1.95 cm from the user's hand.

(a) Power is given by :

$P=V\times I\\\\I=\dfrac{P}{V}\\\\I=\dfrac{1650\ W}{110\ V}\\\\I=15\ A$

(b) Again the power is given by :

$P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}$

R is resistance of the dryer

$R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}\\\\R=\dfrac{(110)^2}{1650}\\\\R=7.34\ \Omega$

(c) The magnetic field produced by the dryer at the user's hand is given by :

$B=\dfrac{\mu_o I}{2\pi r}\\\\B=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 15}{2\pi \times 1.95\times 10^{-2}}\\\\B=1.53\times 10^{-4}\ T$

Hence, this is the required solution.

Alexandra is attempting to drag her 32.6 kg golden retriever across the wooden floor by applying a horizontal force. What force

vichka [17]

Answer:

230.26 N

Explanation:

Since the speed is constant, acceleration is zero hence the net force will be given by the product of mass, coefficient of friction and acceleration due to gravity

F=0.72*32.6*9.81=230.26 N
