Describe how two plates move in relation to each other along divergent plate boundaries?

1 answer:

5 0

At a divergent boundary, plates move away from each other, allowing magma to fill up the cracks in between the plates to form new land. This creates rift valleys and mid ocean ridges.

Express force in terms of base units

MariettaO [177]

<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

<u></u>

<u>Force = kgm/s² ⟶ Newton</u>

<h2><u>Explanation:</u></h2>

<u></u>

According to the formula we've learnt,

Force = mass × acceleration.

To find force in terms of base units, we must first identify the base SI units of mass & acceleration.

Base SI unit of mass = kg (kilogram)

Base SI unit of acceleration = m/s² (meter per second squared)

So, the base unit of force is,

Force = mass × acceleration.

Force = kg × m/s²

<u>Force = kgm/s² ⟶ Newton</u>

Which theory states that if you are forced to smile at an event, you will enjoy it? A. The Schachter-Singer theory B. The Lazaru

Ronch [10]

Answer:

C. The facial feedback theory

Explanation:

The facial feedback theory as postulated by William James and connects back to the famous Charles Darwin talks about how facial expressions stimulate our emotional state of being. Based on this theory, the emotional experiences we have are determined by the looks on our faces.

According to the question, smiling at an event makes you enjoy it is an example of what the The facial feedback theory is explaining. Furthermore, smiling, which is a facial expression causes or stimulates an emotional state of enjoyment in that event.

Water moves through a constricted pipe in steady, ideal flow. At the

Irina-Kira [14]

A) Speed in the lower section: 0.638 m/s

B) Speed in the higher section: 2.55 m/s

C) Volume flow rate: $1.8\cdot 10^{-3} m^3/s$

Explanation:

To solve the problem, we can use Bernoulli's equation, which states that

$p_1 + \rho g h_1 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2 = p_2 + \rho g h_2 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2$

where

$p_1=1.75\cdot 10^4 Pa$ is the pressure in the lower section of the tube

$h_1 = 0$ is the heigth of the lower section

$\rho=1000 kg/m^3$ is the density of water

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

$v_1$ is the speed of the water in the lower pipe

$p_2$ is the pressure in the higher section

$h_2 = 0.250 m$ is the height in the higher pipe

$v_2$ is hte speed in the higher section

We can re-write the equation as

$v_1^2-v_2^2=\frac{2(p_2-p_1)+\rho g h_2}{\rho}$ (1)

Also we can use the continuity equation, which state that the volume flow rate is constant:

$A_1 v_1 = A_2 v_2$

where

$A_1 = \pi r_1^2$ is the cross-section of the lower pipe, with

$r_1 = 3.00 cm =0.03 m$ is the radius of the lower pipe (half the diameter)

$A_2 = \pi r_2^2$ is the cross-section of the higher pipe, with

$r_2 = 1.50 cm = 0.015 m$ (radius of the higher pipe)

So we get

$r_1^2 v_1 = r_2^2 v_2$

And so

$v_2 = \frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2}v_1$ (2)

Substituting into (1), we find the speed in the lower section:

$v_1^2-(\frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2})^2v_1^2=\frac{2(p_2-p_1)+\rho g h_2}{\rho}\\v_1=\sqrt{\frac{2(p_2-p_1+\rho g h_2)}{\rho(1-\frac{r_1^4}{r_2^4})}}=0.638 m/s$
