What is the largest meteoroid that has collided with this planet

Physics
1 answer:
Burka [1]3 years ago
6 0

Chicxulub. It's the most famous cataclysm ever, the meteorite that probably snuffed out the dinosaurs (along with three-quarters of all life on Earth) when it smashed into our planet 65 million years ago. The crater it left behind is actually one of the youngest and most accessible in the solar system.

Sedimentary layers that are deposited on an angle are called?
Akimi4 [234]

Sedimentary rocks are deposited in layers as strata, forming a structure called bedding.

<span>Bedding planes are surfaces that separate one layer from another. Bedding planes can also form when the upper part of a sediment layer is eroded away before the next episode of deposition. Strata separated by a bedding plane may have different grain sizes, grain compositions, or colors. Sometimes these other traits are better indicators of stratification as bedding planes may be very subtle.</span>

Which of the following actions would decrease the energy stored in a parallel plate capacitor when a constant potential differen
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

increasing the separation between the plates

Explanation:

The increase in the vacuum/separation between the plates in a parallel plate capacitor connected to a constant potential difference decreases the energy stored in the capacitor. the increase in the separation of the plates of a parallel plate capacitor reduces the capacitance of the capacitor because

Q(charge) = CV  V = VOLTAGE , c = capacitance  

E = 1/2 eAV^2/ D  ( ENERGY STORED )

where D = distance between plates, e = dielectric, A = area of capacitor , V = potential difference

What evidence can you cite to support the claim that the frequency of light does not change upon reflection?
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer: The color of an image is identical to the color of the object forming the image. When you look at yourself in a mirror, the color of your eyes doesn’t change. The fact that the color is the same is evidence that the frequency of light doesn’t change upon reflection. 2.

Hope this helps!!

A racing car reaches a speed of 42 m/s. It then begins a uniform negative acceleration, using its parachute and braking system,
NARA [144]

As per the question the initial speed of the car [ u] is 42 m/s.

The car applied its brake and comes to rest after 5.5 second.

The final velocity [v] of the car will be zero.

From the equation of kinematics we know that

                                         v=u+at [ here a stands for acceleration]

                                         0=42 +5.5a

                                         a =\frac{-42}{5.5} m/s^2

                                          a= -7.64 m/s^2

Here a is taken negative as it the car is decelerating uniformly.

We are asked to calculate the stopping distance .

From equation of kinematics we know that

                                              S=ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2  [here S is the distance]

                                                      = 42*5.5 +\frac{1}{2} [-7.64] [5.5]^2 m

                                                       =115.445 m      [ans]
