What happens to the water particles in a wave?
lys-0071 [83]

Answer: waves transport energy, not water. As a wave crest passes, the water particles move in circular paths. The movement of the floating inner tube is simulacra to the movement of the water particles. Water particles rise as a wave crest approaches.

The resistance, R, of a wire varies directly as its length and inversely as the square of its diameter. If the resistance of a w
lbvjy [14]

R is proportional to the length of the wire:

R ∝ length

R is also proportional to the inverse square of the diameter:

R ∝ 1/diameter²

The resistance of a wire 2700ft long with a diameter of 0.26in is 9850Ω. Now let's change the shape of the wire, adding and subtracting material as we go along, such that the wire is now 2800ft and has a diameter of 0.1in.

Calculate the scale factor due to the changed length:

k₁ = 2800/2700 = 1.037

Scale factor due to changed diameter:

k₂ = 1/(0.1/0.26)² = 6.76

Multiply the original resistance by these factors to get the new resistance:

R = R₀k₁k₂

R₀ = 9850Ω, k₁ = 1.037, k₂ = 6.76

R = 9850(1.037)(6.76)

R = 69049.682Ω

Round to the nearest hundredth:

R = 69049.68Ω

which observation about the Mid-Atlantic Ridge region provides the best evidence of the seafloor has been spreading over for mil
Kitty [74]

Magnetic stripes on the sea floor

Explanation:

The observation of magnetic stripes patterns at the region of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge galvanized the evidence that sea floor spreading has been on for several millions of years.

  • Geomagnetic field of the earth is similar to that of bar magnet having the north and south pole.
  • It originates from the movement of iron-nickel within the outer core.
  • This geomagnetic field causes the magnetization of magnetic minerals in rock.
  • When freshly formed magma is brought to the surface at the mid oceanic ridge area, the prevailing magnetic field causes the magnetic minerals in the magma to cool in such a way that they align their domains to that of the field.
  • The magnetic field of the earth can reverse and take different geometry. Sometimes, its intensity is very strong and at other times it is weak.
  • The magnetic minerals in melts bear these records.
  • As new materials are brought up, they get magnetized.

A person kicks a ball off of a 50m high cliff with a speed of 10 m/s. How long will it take the ball to hit the ground? * 7 poin
Musya8 [376]

Presumably, the ball is kicked parallel to the ground below the cliff, so its altitude <em>y</em> at time <em>t</em> is

y(t)=50\,\mathrm m-\dfrac12gt^2

where <em>g</em> = 9.80 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity.

The ball hits the ground when <em>y</em> = 0:

0 = 50\,\mathrm m-\dfrac12gt^2

t^2=\dfrac{100\,\mathrm m}g

t=\dfrac{10}{9.80}\,\mathrm s\approx\boxed{3.2\,\mathrm s}
