<span>Pillow lavas have pillow-like structures and are formations that push lava on the surface of the earth underwater. Magma comes out of ocean ridges as pillow lava and forms a new oceanic crust, supporting sea floor spreading. The older crust gets pushed away from the ridge and pushes on to the continents, making them drift.</span>

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf  A. \ 19,320 \ kg/m^3}}

Explanation:

We want to find the density. The formula is mass over volume.

\rho = \frac{m}{v}

The mass is 500 kilograms. The volume is 0.026 cubic meters.

m= 500 \ kg \\v=0.026 \ m^3

Substitute the values into the formula.

\rho= \frac{ 500 \ kg}{ 0.026 \ m^3}

Divide.

\rho = 19230.7692 \ kg/m^3

This is just about equal to 19,320 kg/m³, so choice A is correct.

Explain how tectonic plates move relative to one another at a transform plate boundary
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:The movement of the plates creates three types of tectonic boundaries: convergent, where plates move into one another; divergent, where plates move apart; and transform, where plates move sideways in relation to each other. They move at a rate of one to two inches (three to five centimeters) per year.

A 1.00 cm2 blackbody surface emits 201 watts of radiant power. What is the temperature of the surface? Give to the nearest whole
erastovalidia [21]

Explanation:

Formula for black body radiation is as follows.

                 \frac{P}{A} = \sigma \times T^{4} J/m^{2}s

where,       P = power emitted

                 A = surface area of black body

          \sigma = Stephen's constant = 5.6703 \times 10^{-8} watt/m^{2}.K^{-4}

As area is given as 1.0 cm^{2}. Converting it into meters as follows.

           1.00 cm^{2} \times \frac{(10^{-2})^{2} m^{2}}{1 cm^{2}}      (as 1 m = 100 cm)

            = 1 \times 10^{-4} m^{2}

It is given that P = 201 watts. Hence,  

       \frac{201 watts}{1 \times 10^{-4} m^{2}} = 5.6703 \times 10^{-8} watt/m^{2}.K^{-4} \times T^{4}

                T^{4} = 35.45 \times 10^{12}

                       T = (35.45 \times 10^{12})^{1/4}

                          = 8862.5 K

Thus, we can conclude that the temperature of the surface is 8862.5 K.

PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME WITH THIIS QUESTION
sdas [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 5 carbon compounds due to low to high intermolecular forces between their molecules.

Explanation:

Bottle C has gas in it and we know that alkane has carbon and hydrogen only which means they have a single sigma bond between them and very low intermolecular forces in between molecules and are present mostly at gaseous state. Thus, bottle C has alkane.

Alcohols have -OH group that can form rarely two pi bonds which means they have intermediate intermolecular force whereas acids have -cooH group with a high molecular force so bottle B with liquid is alcohol and A has acid.
