Answer: 14400 N

Explanation:

Weight of an object is the force acting on an object on the center of the body by gravity.

weight=mass\times acceleratio

Given mass= 1470 kg

acceleration due to gravity = 9.80m/s^2

Putting in the values we get,

weight=1470kg\times 9.80m/s^2=14400kgms^{-2}=14400N

1kgms^{-2}=1Newton(N)

thus weight of the object is 14400 Newton

Weight  = Mass * gravity

             =  1470* 9.8 = 14406 N  ≈ 14,400 N

You take a lab battery and, when it isn't connected to a circuit, you measure a voltage of 4.00-V with a voltmeter. You then con
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

r = 28.6 ohm

Explanation:

As we know that when battery is in open circuit then the potential difference of the cell is known as EMF

so EMF is given as

EMF = 4.00 V

now when the battery is connected across a resistance of 200 ohm then there is current flowing through the battery

it is given as

i = \frac{V}{R + r}

17.5 \times 10^{-3} = \frac{4}{200 + r}

200 + r = 228.6

r = 28.6 ohm

Explain how scientist learned about the magnetic poles of the Earth.
maks197457 [2]

Answer: Larmor suggested in 1919 that a self-exciting dynamo could explain the magnetic field of the earth, as well as that of the sun and other stars, but it was Elsasser and Bullard in the 1940s who showed how motion in the liquid core of the earth might produce a self-sustaining magnetic field. By this time seismology and other studies had given a clearer picture of the earth, as having a solid inner core, a liquid outer core, both with a composition more of metal (mainly iron) than rock, and a rocky mantle, all below a thin crust that is all we can directly see. Energy from radioactivity travels outwards as heat, producing thermal convection in the core. It seems that this convection is the cause of the earth's magnetic field, although our knowledge of the core and its dynamics is sketchy. Our knowledge is limited to saying that flow regimes like those that may be occurring in the core can produce self-sustaining dynamos, with characteristics similar to that needed to produce the earth’s magnetic field.

Use the diagram to answer each question.
valentina_108 [34]

Figure A shows cross section of a land form or rock. In Figure B, compression stress is applied on it. When compression stresses are applied on a rock, it squeezes the rock cause fold or fracture. The fault formed by compression stress is called thrust fault. If the compression stresses/ force continue to act on a rock it will converge and form thrust fault. In Figure C, tension stresses is applied on the rock. When a tension stress applied on a rock it deforms/ lengthen. There are three type of deformations occur due to tension stresses. One is elastic deformation, in which, rock retains it original shape when force/stresses are removed. Second is plastic deformation, in which rock lengthen and change occur permanently. Third type of deformation is result into fracture or breaking of rock. In Figure C, shear stresses are applied on rock. Shear stresses are applied with equal magnitude but in opposite direction. It cause breaking of rock.

A car is traveling at a constant speed of 12m/s , when the driver accelerates the car reaches a speed of 26 m/s in 6s what is th
DaniilM [7]

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (end speed) - (start speed)

Change in speed = (26 m/s) - (12 m/s) = 14 m/s

Time for the change = 6 s

Acceleration = (14 m/s) / (6 s)

Acceleration = (14/6) (m/s²)

<em>Acceleration = 2.33 m/s²</em>
