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.

Calculate the total energy of 4.0 kg object moving horizontally at 20 m/s 50 meters above the surface.
Serhud [2]

Answer:

Correct answer:  E total = 2,800 J

Explanation:

Given:

m = 4 kg   the mass of the object

V = 20 m/s  the speed (velocity) of the object

H = 50 m the height of the object above the surface

E total = ? J

The total energy of an object is equal to the sum of potential and kinetic energy

E total = Ep + Ek

Ep = m g H   we take g = 10 m/s²

Ep = 4 · 10 · 50 = 2,000 J

Ek = m V² / 2

Ek = 4 · 20² / 2 = 2 · 400 = 800 J

E total = 2,000 + 800 = 2,800 J

E total = 2,800 J

The independent variable refers to the type of socks (synthetic socks), the dependent variable is the number of blisters and the control is the two weeks that she switches back to the cotton socks.

<h3>What is the dependent variable?</h3>

In an experiment, the dependent variable is those being tested and changes according to the independent variable.

The control group is the set of experimental conditions that is used to compare a given outcome in an experiment.

In conclusion, The independent variable refers to the type of socks (synthetic socks), the dependent variable is the number of blisters and the control is the two weeks that she switches back to the cotton socks.

Ryan is driving his car to band practice. His speed is 55 mph. Splat! A bug smashes against the windshield, and bug "guts" are e
MrRa [10]

Answer:

The answer is C.

Explanation:

Every point mass attracts every single other point mass by a force acting along the line intersecting both points. The force is proportional to the product of the two masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. In magnitude, the force they apply each other is the same. Therefore, the force that the windshield exerts on the bug and the force that the bug exerts on the windshield are the same magnitude.
