Answer:

The core: this structure of the terrestrial world is made up of sulphur, iron, silicon and it is found at the centre of the terrestrial world.

The mantle: this structure of the terrestrial world is located between the outer core and the crust and consist of mainly silicate rock.

The crust: this is the structure of the terrestrial world that makes up the outermost layer. It consist of granite and basalt.

Differentiation: this is the process by which gravity separates materials according to density, with high-density materials sinking and low-density materials rising.

Lithosphere: this is made up of the hard and rigid outer layer of the terrestrial planet and it's located between the crust and the outermost mantel.

The five terrestrial worlds includes Mercury, Venus, Earth, the Moon, and Mars. The largest which includes the Venus and Earth has the thinnest lithosphere while the smallest ( mercury and moon) have the thickest lithosphere.

No. Terrance cannot move the sled. This is because, the force that he produces is 80*3 Newton’s, which is only 240 Newton’s, but since the sled needs a force of 250 Newton’s, he cannot move the sled (even though the difference is only by 10 Newton’s).

vazorg [7]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

<h3>According to Newton's third law, for every reaction there will be equal and opposite reaction</h3>

Here in this case the force of the club hitting the golf ball will be in one direction and the force acting on club due to golf ball will be in opposite direction and magnitude of this force will be same as the magnitude of the force of the club hitting the golf ball

In this case the action will be the force of the club hitting the golf ball and reaction will be the force acting on club due to golf ball

∴ The club pushes against to golf ball with a force equal and opposite to the force of the golf ball on the club
