Continental shelf is the name of the area between the shoreline and the continental slope.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation: </u>

The continental shelf refers the continent' edge which presents under the ocean. It expands from the continent' edge to a drop points referred as shelf break. As this break, the underwater edge of the continental shelf initiates to plummet deep into the seabed.

According to convention, the continental shelf of the coastal state includes the sinking area of the coastal state, the seabed and undersea region' subsoil extending beyond its territorial sea to its outer edge point of the continent or 200 km of nautical miles without extending the outer periphery of continental margin.

The independent variable would be the cleaning products.

The independent variable is the variable that you can manipulate. The change in the independent variable is not affected by other variables. So in this case, the independent variable would be the cleaning product because you will be changing it.

A 0.140 kg baseball is thrown horizontally with a velocity of 28.9 m/s. It is struck with a constant horizontal force that lasts

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

4987N

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question include:

Mass (m) = 0.140 kg

Initial velocity (U) = 28.9 m/s

Time (t) = 1.85 ms = 1.85x10^-3s

Final velocity (V) = 37.0 m/s

Force (F) =?

Step 2:

Determination of the magnitude of the horizontal force applied. This can be obtained by applying the formula:

F = m(V + U) /t

F = 0.140(37+ 28.9) /1.85x10^-3

F = 9.226/1.85x10^-3

F = 4987N

Therefore, the magnitude of the horizontal force applied is 4987N
