Why are the lunar mountains smoothly rounded rather than having sharp, pointed peaks (as they were almost always depicted in sci

ence-fiction illustrations and films before the first lunar landings)?
Physics

omeli [17]3 years ago

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

Lunar mountains are smoothly rounded rather than having sharp, pointed peaks because the lunar moons are formed because of the impact of asteroids and comets on its surface whereas the Earth mountains are formed because of the surface activity of volcanos, collision of land masses and activity of plate tectonics that is why they have sharp and pointed tops.

Two climbers are on a mountain. Simon, of mass m, is sitting on a snow covered slope that makes an angle θ with the horizontal.
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

It is required that the weight of Joe must prevent Simon from being pulled down . That means he is not slipping down but tends to be towed down . So in equilibrium , force of friction will act in upward direction on Simon.

Let in equilibrium , tension in rope be T

For balancing Joe

T = M g

For balancing Simon

friction + T = mgsinθ

μmgcosθ+T = mgsinθ

μmgcosθ+Mg = mgsinθ

M = (msinθ - μmcosθ)

M = m(sinθ - μcosθ)

Cathode ray tubes (CRTs) used in old-style televisions have been replaced by modern LCD and LED screens. Part of the CRT include
Ket [755]

Answer:

E =  1.64 x 10⁶ V/m

Explanation:

The electric field in the region between the plates can be given by the following formula:

E = \frac{\Delta V}{d}

where,

E = Electric Field = ?

ΔV = Poetential Difference across the plates = 23 KV = 23000 V

d = distance between plates = 1.4 cm = 0.014 m

Therefore, using these values in the equation, we get:

E = \frac{23000\ V}{0.014\ m}

<u>E =  1.64 x 10⁶ V/m</u>

The brain is responsible for storing memories. How is this helpful for helping the body react to stimuli? ANSWER PLEASEEE​
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

Memories occur when specific groups of neurons are reactivated. In the brain, any stimulus results in a particular pattern of neuronal activity—certain neurons become active in more or less a particular sequence. ... Memories are stored by changing the connections between neurons. When the memories are stored, the stimuli can be recalled by being remembered. Explanation:

Hope it helps, I'm not 100% sure it's right though.
