When looking at this question, we can easily start by eliminating certain answers. In the selections you've provided, you've shown atmosphere. We can easily eliminate letter A, as that makes absolutely no sense. Moving on, you also eliminate letter B, as that deals with ecosystems and whatnot. And finally, you can eliminate hydrosphere, letter C - as that's not the same. That deals with water, like oceans or rivers.

That leaves you with D) Lithosphere for your answer. The Lithosphere is the rigid part of the earth, the outermost layer, I would say. The crust / mantle. That's why it would be letter D - plate tectonics seem to have relations with the Lithosphere. The lithosphere is affected.

Dos cargas iguales de 10^-7C estan separadas por una distancia de 2m. calcule la fuerza con que se repelen

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

$F=2.25\times 10^{-5}\ N$

Explanation:

According to question,

Charge 1 and charge 2 are $10^{-7}\ C$

The distance between charges is 2 m

We need to find the force with which two positive charges repel. It is called electrostatic force of repulsion. It can be given by :

$F=\dfrac{kq^2}{r^2}\\\\F=\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times (10^{-7})^2}{2^2}\\\\F=2.25\times 10^{-5}\ N$

So, the electric force of repulsion is $2.25\times 10^{-5}\ N$ .

In what way would a digital thermometer be preferable to those from a liquid-based thermometer?

garik1379 [7]

Reading a digital thermometer is more preferable because you can just easily read the measurement from a screen, a number will just show in a screen as compared to a liquid-based thermometer where you still have to read the measurement by counting the markers in the thermometer. Hope this helps! Mark brainly please!

A disk rotates freely on a vertical axis with an angular velocity of 50 rpm . An identical disk rotates above it in the same dir

True [87]

Answer:

Final angular velocity is 35rpm

Explanation:

Angular velocity is given by the equation:

I1w1i + I2w2i = I1w1f -I2w2f

But the two disks are identical, so Ii =I2

wf can be calculated using

wf = w1i - w2i/2

Given: w1i =50rpm w2i= 30rpm

wf= (50 + 20) / 2

wf= 70/2 = 35rpm
