Basalt is pushed into the crust by subduction. It will most likely become _____.

2 answers:

Subduction is, "<span>the sideways and downward movement of the edge of a plate of the earth's crust into the mantle beneath another plate." The basalt would most likely be swallowed up into the ground.

This city is the capital of the state of Georgia since 1868 and was burned during the Civil War.

Sphinxa [80]

The correct answer is - Atlanta.

Georgia is a state that has had multiple capitals since the arrival of the first European settlers, changing them very often in accordance to the circumstances. The last one in the row has been Atlanta. This city got the privilege to be the capital of Georgia in 1868 after the Atlanta council applied for it. The US government took everything in perspective, from infrastructure, population, location, and very importantly politics. The political aspect seems to be the case where Atlanta won the case to become capital, as the capital until than, Milledgeville, was still a city where the black population was not welcomed and the racism was still on a very high level.

A ceiling fan with 90-cm-diameter blades is turning at 64 rpm . Suppose the fan coasts to a stop 28 s after being turned off. Wh

mixas84 [53]

Answer:

the speed of the tip of a blade 10 s after the fan is turned off is 16.889 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

diameter of the ceiling fan, d = 90 cm = 0.9 m

angular speed of the fan, ω = 64 rpm

time taken for the fan to stop, t = 28 s

The distance traveled by the ceiling fan when it comes to a stop is calculated as;

$d = vt = \omega r\times t= ( \frac{64 \ rev}{\min} \times \frac{2 \pi \ rad}{rev} \times \frac{1 \min}{60 \ s} \times 0.9 \ m) \times 28 \ s\\\\d = 168.89 \ m$

The speed of the tip of a blade 10 s after the fan is turned off is calculated as;

$v = \frac{d}{t} \\\\v = \frac{168.89}{10} \\\\v = 16.889 \ m/s$

Therefore, the speed of the tip of a blade 10 s after the fan is turned off is 16.889 m/s.

A bird flew16 km west in 5 hours, then flew 20 km east in 6 hours. what was the birdâs velocity?

Mademuasel [1]

Solve for Speed: 16+20=36 km in 11 hrs
Answer: speed = 3.27273 kilometers per hour

To solve for speed or rate use the formula for speed, s = d/t which means speed equals distance divided by time.

<span>speed = distance/time</span>

1.)Two objects, one of m=20,000 kg, and another of 12,500 kg, are placed at a distance of 5 meters apart. What is the force of g

Delvig [45]

1) $6.67\cdot 10^{-4} N$

The force of gravitation between the two objects is given by:

$F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}$

where

$G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} kg^{-1} m^{3} s^{-2}$ is the gravitational constant

m1 = 20,000 kg is the mass of the first object

m2 = 12,500 kg is the mass of the second object

r = 5 m is the distance between the two objects

Substituting the numbers inside the equation, we find

$F=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})\frac{(20,000 kg)(12,500 kg)}{(5 m)^2}=6.67\cdot 10^{-4} N$

2) $2.7\cdot 10^{-3} N$

From the formula in exercise 1), we see that the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance:

$F \sim \frac{1}{r^2}$

this means that if we cut in a half the distance without changing the masses, the magnitude of the forces changes by a factor

$F'\sim \frac{1}{(r/2)^2}=4 \frac{1}{r^2}=4F$

So, the gravitational force increases by a factor 4. Therefore, the new force will be

$F' = 4 F=4(6.67\cdot 10^{-4} N)=2.7\cdot 10^{-3} N$

3) 12.5 Nm

The torque is equal to the product between the magnitude of the perpendicular force and the distance between the point of application of the force and the centre of rotation:

$\tau=Fd$
