What creates the solar wind?

Physics
1 answer:
UNO [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The solar wind is created by the outward expansion of plasma (a collection of charged particles) from the Sun's corona (outermost atmosphere). This plasma is continually heated to the point that the Sun's gravity can't hold it down. It then travels along the Sun's magnetic field lines that extend radially outward.

When a boat is placed in liquid, two forces act on the boat. Gravity pulls the boat down with a force equal to the weight of the
wel

Answer:

the fraction of submerged volume is equal to the ratio of the densities of the body between the density of the fluid.

Explanation:

This is a fluid mechanics problem, where as the boat is in equilibrium with the pushing force we can write Newton's second law

                  B- W = 0

                  B = W

           

the thrust force is equal to the weight of the liquid that is dislodged

                  B = ρ g V

we substitute

             ρ g V = m g

             V = m /ρ_fluid          1

we can write the mass of the pot as a function of its density

             ρ_body = m / V_body

            m = ρ_body  V_body

             V_fluid / V_body = ρ_body / ρ _fluid         2

Equations 1 and 2 are similar, although 2 is easier to analyze, the fraction of submerged volume is equal to the ratio of the densities of the body between the density of the fluid.

The effect appears the pot as if it had a lower apparent weight

You push a refrigerator with a force of 100 N. If you move the refrigerator a distance of 5 m while you are pushing, how much wo
ddd [48]

The work done to push the refrigerator is 500 Nm.

Explanation:

Work done is the measure of force required to move any object from one point to another. So it is calculated as the product of force and displacement.

If the force increases the work done will increase and similarly, the increase in displacement increases the work done. So to push the refrigerator work should be done on the object and not by the object.

As the force is 100 N and the displacement is 5 m then, work done can be measured as

Work = Force × Displacement

Work = 100 × 5 = 500 Nm

So the work done to push the refrigerator is 500 Nm.

Possible reasons why seascorpions went extinct
BabaBlast [244]
Sea scorpions or Eurypterids lived about 251.9 million years ago. They were formidable predators and hunters, but they were wiped out in the Great Permian Mass Extinction, which is also known as the Great Dying (96% of all species on Earth went extinct).The largest species like Jaekelopterus was over 7 feet long! They were mainly thought to go extinct because of a slew of natural disasters that occurred when a comet hit the Earth, as well as increased volcanic activity polluting the seas that Sea scorpions lived in, as well as rising sea temperatures. The Silurian, when these Sea scorpions proliferated was when the water was cooler, holding in more nutrients, allowing both Sea Scorpions and other animals to spread all over the world. But as the oceans became polluted from the volcanoes (and the ash they produced) and the global ocean temperatures began to rise, many animals may not have been able to cope or adapt to the extreme change, becoming helpless in their nutrient deficient water (compared to what they were used to).

I hope this helps!

Even when shut down after a period of normal use, a large commercial nuclear reactor transfers thermal energy at the rate of 150
Sever21 [200]

Answer:2.89\approx 2.9^{\circ}C/s

Explanation:

Given

Power\left ( P\right )=150 MW

mass of core\left ( m\right )=1.60\times 10^5 kg

Average specific heat \left ( C\right )=0.3349 KJ/kg^{\circ}C

And rate of increase of temperature =\frac{\mathrm{d}T}{\mathrm{d} t}

Now

P=mc\frac{\mathrm{d}T}{\mathrm{d} t}

150\times 10^6=1.60\times 10^5\times 0.3349\times \frac{\mathrm{d}T}{\mathrm{d} t}

Thus \frac{\mathrm{d}T}{\mathrm{d} t}=[tex]\frac{1.60\times 10^5\times 0.3349}{150\times 10^6}

\frac{\mathrm{d}T}{\mathrm{d} t}=2.89\approx 2.9^{\circ}C/s
