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.

mike shoots a large marble (Marble A, mass:0.05 kg) at a smaller marble (Marble B, mass: 0.03 kg) that is sitting still. Marble
mixas84 [53]

Explanation:

According to Conservation of Linear Momentum :

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

0.05 \times 0.6 + 0.03 \times 0 = 0.05 \times  - 0.2 + 0.03 \times v_2

0.04 = 0.03v_2

Velocity of marble B after collision = 1.33 m/sec

A 1.8-kg object is attached to a spring and placed on frictionless, horizontal surface. A force of 40 N stretches a spring 20 cm
Sergio [31]

Answer:

a) k = 200 N/m

b) E = 4 J

c) Δx = 6.3 cm

Explanation:

a)

  • In order to find force constant of the spring, k, we can use the the Hooke's Law, which reads as follows:

       F = - k * \Delta x (1)

  • where F = 40 N and Δx =- 0.2 m (since the force opposes to the displacement from the equilibrium position, we say that it's a restoring force).
  • Solving for k:

       k =- \frac{F}{\Delta x} =-\frac{40 N}{-0.2m} = 200 N/m (2)

b)

  • Assuming no friction present, total mechanical energy mus keep constant.
  • When the spring is stretched, all the energy is elastic potential, and can be expressed as follows:

        U = \frac{1}{2}* k* (\Delta x)^{2} (3)

  • Replacing k and Δx by their values, we get:

       U = \frac{1}{2}* k* (\Delta x)^{2} = \frac{1}{2}* 200 N/m* (0.2m)^{2} = 4 J (4)

c)

  • When the object is oscillating, at any time, its energy will be part elastic potential, and part kinetic energy.
  • We know that due to the conservation of energy, this sum will be equal to the total energy that we found in b).
  • So, we can write the following expression:

        \frac{1}{2}* k* \Delta x_{1} ^{2} + \frac{1}{2} * m* v^{2}  = \frac{1}{2}*k*\Delta x^{2}   (5)

  • Replacing the right side of (5) with (4), k, m, and v by the givens, and simplifying, we can solve for Δx₁, as follows:

        \frac{1}{2}* 200N/m* \Delta x_{1} ^{2} + \frac{1}{2} * 1.8kg* (-2.0m/s)^{2}  = 4J   (6)

⇒      \frac{1}{2}* 200N/m* \Delta x_{1} ^{2}   = 4J  - 3.6 J = 0.4 J (7)

⇒     \Delta x_{1}   = \sqrt{\frac{0.8J}{200N/m} } = 6.3 cm (8)
