4 0

In the Earth's mantle, heat is transferred in large convection currents. Within these currents "hotter rock rises and cooler rock sinks".

Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

Heat rises occur and the hotter rock gets farther away from the Earth's overheated core it starts to chill out and continues to sink back towards the Earth's overheated center where it gets reheated and also the entire procedure begins again. It's what a current in convection is.

Convection currents are part of what keeps the Earth's atmosphere through global circulation. The convection currents contribute to conditions in the air and sea. Magma travels in convection currents at Earth's mantle. The hot cores heat the above substance, allowing it to rise to the crust where it cools.

Please Help On These 2 Questions!!!!! I severely need help!!!!!!

3. In a uniform electric field, the equation for the magnitude of the magnetic field is E=(V/d). V= voltage d= distance. If the magnetic field magnitude is constant , as stated in your problem, then the voltage must stay the same otherwise the value of "E" would change". And the problem already told us the "E" is uniform and so, not changing. Does that make sense?

4a. If the magnetic field lines are equally spaced apart, in other words share the same density. Then we know that the magnitude of the magnetic field is unchanging. This is because the density of of the magnetic field lines(how many are in a certain area) is related to the magnitude being expressed by the electric field. Greater magnitude is expressed by the presence of more lines (higher line density)

4b. The electric potential is measured in Volts(V) and is uniform along the same equipotential line. What is an equipotential line(gray)? It is a line drawn perpendicular(forms a right angle with) to the magnetic field lines(black) to show the changes in electric potential. One space where electric potential will always be the same because it will always be equal to 0 Volts is exactly in between a positive and negative charges of equal charge value I have pointed to this line with a purple arrow in my picture.

I really hope this makes sense to you and that my pictures help! :)

What force is required to accelerate a body with a mass of 15 kilograms at a rate of 8 m/s²?

mihalych1998 [28]

Newton's Second law of motion:

Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

Force = (15kg) x (8m/s²) = 120 kg-m/s² = 120 newtons

Carol drops a stone in a mine shaft 122.5 metres deep.How

Verizon [17]

Answer:

T = 5.36 s

Explanation:

given,

depth of the mine shaft = 122.5 m

speed of the sound = 340 m/s

time taken = ?

time taken by the stone to reach at the bottom

using equation of motion

$s = u t + \dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

initial speed , u = 0 m/s

$t = \sqrt{\dfrac{2s}{g}}$

$t = \sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 122.5}{9.8}}$

t = 5 s

time taken by the sound to travel

d =v x t

$t = \dfrac{d}{v}$

$t = \dfrac{122.5}{340}$

t = 0.36 s

total time taken for the sound to reach carol after dropping the stone

T = 5 + 0.36

T = 5.36 s

What's is meant by relative motion?

saveliy_v [14]

Relative motion means a motion relative to a reference point. We can also say, relative motion means motion referred or observed from a reference point.

For example, Alex is in a train and Ace is at the station, when the train starts moving, for Ace it is moving at a speed of 10 m/s, but for Alex it is moving at 0 m/s, or we can say that it is at rest for Alex, but in motion for Ace. This is relative motion.

Viewed through a spectroscope, the spectral profile of a yellow street lamp has a narrow line in the yellow region of the visibl

muminat

Answer:

discrete lines are observed by the spectroscope, the emission of the lamp is of the ATOMIC source

Explanation:

Bulbs can emit light in several ways:

* When the emission is carried out by the heating of its filament, the bulb is called incandescent, in general its spectrum is similar to that of a black body, this is a continuous spectrum with a maximum dependent on the fourth power of the temperature of the filament.

* The emission can be by atomic transitions, in this case there is a discrete spectrum formed by the spectral lines of the material that forms the gas of the lamp, in general for the yellow emission the most used materials are mercury and sodium or a mixture of they.

Consequently, as discrete lines are observed by the spectroscope, the emission of the lamp is of the ATOMIC type
