Answer:

D. Radiant energy does not require a medium through which to travel.

Explanation:

Radiant energy is the energy of electromagnetic waves. It is a form of energy that can travel through space. For example, we receive the heat from the sun, which is located very far from the earth via radiation. The sun's heat is not transmitted through any solid medium, but through a vacuum. Welcome.

Wegener believed continents moved, but he did not know how. Identify what needed to happen before Wegener's idea about moving co
pochemuha

D. Advances in technology were needed to gather more evidence.

Explanation:

New technologies had to be developed to ascertain Wegener's claims.

The major flaw in Wegener's postulate was that the moving continents lacked a mechanism to drive them into motion.

His theory needed more scientific backing also.

  • A major leap was made when new technologies used during the second world war was deployed to investigate the ocean floor.
  • Sequences of magnetic anomalies were unraveled using equipment developed during the second world war
  • This gave further proof to the idea of continental drift and it expanded the theory into a more broader and inclusive theory of plate tectonics.

If a projectile fired beneath the water, straight up, breaks through the surface at a speed of 13m/s, to what height above the w
OlgaM077 [116]
Well if you had either the velocity or distance traveled i could tell you. But since you haven't all i can say for sure is that the water slowed the bullet down to 13m/s so lets say you knew the distance you would calculate how many meters it traveled and you would have your answer because in this situation, meters (height) =how many seconds spent going into the air.

An artist working on a piece of metal in his forging studio plunges the hot metal into oil in order to harden it. The metal piec
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

The temperature of the metal is  T_m  =  376.8 ^o C

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The mass of the metal is  M =  60 \ kg

     The specific heat of the metal is  c_p  =  0.1027 kcal/(kg \cdot ^oC)

       The mass of the oil is M_o  =  810 \ kg

       The temperature of the oil is  T_o  =  35^oC

       The specific heat of oil is  c_o  =  0.7167 kcal/(kg \cdot ^oC )

       The equilibrium temperature is T_e  =  39 ^oC

According to the law of energy conservation

     Heat lost by metal  =  heat gained by the oil

So  

   The quantity  of heat lost by the metal is mathematically represented as

               Q =  - Mc_p \Delta T

=>            Q =  -Mc_p (T_m  -  T_c)

Where T_ m  the temperature of metal before immersion

The negative sign show heat lost

The quantity  of gained t by the metal is mathematically represented as      

           Q =  M_o c_o \Delta T

=>        Q =  M_o c_o (T_c - T_o)

So  

         Mc_p (T_m  -  T_c)   =   M_o c_o (T_c - T_o)

substituting values

          - 60 * 0.1027 (T_m  - 39)   =   810 * 0.7167 *  (39 - 35)

=>       T_m  =  376.8 ^o C

One litre of crude oil weighs 9.6N. Calculate its specific weight, density and specific gravity.​
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

The answer is "\bold{9600 \frac{N}{m^3}, 978.59 \frac{kg}{m^3}, and \ 0.978}"

Explanation:

Given:

\to v=1\ liter= 10^{-3} \ m^3\\\\\to  w= 9.6 \ N\\

calculation:

Specific \ weight =\frac{w}{v}=\frac{9.6}{10^{-3}}=9600 \frac{N}{m^3} \\\\w=mg\\\\m= \frac{w}{g}=\frac{9.6}{9.81}=0.9785\ kg\\\\\rho\ (density)=\frac{m}{v}=\frac{0.9785}{10^{-3}}=978.59 \frac{kg}{m^3}\\\\specific \ gravity = \frac{\prho \ obj}{\rho w}=\frac{978.54}{1000}=0.978

g A 1.45-kg block is pushed against a vertical wall by means of a spring (k = 860 N/m). The coefficient of static friction betwe
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

The minimum compression is  x= 0.046m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

              The mass of the block is m_b = 1.45 kg

               The spring constant is  k = 860 N/m

               The coefficient of static friction is  \mu = 0.36

For the the block not slip it mean the sum of forces acting on the  horizontal axis is equal to the forces acting on the vertical axis

     Now the force acting on the vertical axis is the force due to gravity which is mathematically given as

                   F_y = m_b*g

And the force acting on the horizontal axis is  force due to the spring which is mathematically represented as

                   F_x = k *x * \mu

where x is the minimum compression to keep the block from slipping

        Now equating this two formulas and making x the subject

                      x = \frac{m_b * g}{k * \mu}

substituting values we have

                     x = \frac{1.45 * 9.8}{860 *0.36}

                        x= 0.046m
