Answer:

C) Volcanic activity.

Explanation:

When an oceanic plate is subducted ( brought underneath) under a continental plate, the sediments of seafloor which is rich in water and carbon dioxide are also brought under the plate .These elements act as flux reducing the melting point of magma  which comes out in the form of volcanic eruption.

FALSE - The strong forces of the valence electrons is actually the reason why silver bonds with other atoms.

Water: bonds allow for liquid state at room temperature and prevent conduction 
FALSE - Water is a good conductor.

Carbon: bonds with other atoms through strong shared electrical bonds 
TRUE - Carbon shares covalent bonds with other atoms.

Niobium: bonds allow for a strong conductivity found in stainless steel
FALSE - Iron and Carbon make up steel.

If all objects that have mass also have gravity, why doesn't your pencil get pulled towards you while it sits on your desk?
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

The pencil is not pulled towards a person due to a very small magnitude of force between them, due to lighter masses.

Explanation:

Let us apply Newton's Law of Gravitation between a person and pencil.

Average Mass of a Normal Pencil = m₁ = 10 g = 0.01 kg

Average Mass of a Person = m₂ = 80 kg

Distance between both = r = 1 cm = 0.01 m (Taking minimal distance)

Gravitational Constant = G = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²

So,

F = Gm₁m₂/r²

F = (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²)(0.01 kg)(80 kg)/(0.01 m)²

<u>F = 5.34 x 10⁻⁷ N</u>

This Force is very small in magnitude due to the light masses of both objects.

<u>Therefore, the pencil is not pulled towards a person due to a very small magnitude of force between them, due to lighter masses.</u>

Explanation:

Comparison Chart

Basis For Comparison CFL Bulb LED Bulb

Definition The CFL is defined as the lamp which uses the low pressure mercury vapour gas for producing the visible light It is a PN junction diode which produces light when current passes through it in the forward direction.

Stand For Compact Fluorescent Lamp Light Emitting Diode

Working principle The electrons of mercury when excited emits ultraviolet light. This ultraviolet light when strikes with the fluorescent coating glass converts it into the visible light. The semiconductor material which emits light with the passage of current.

Power Consumption More Less

Mercury Contain Not contain

Destruction Difficult Easy

Efficient Less More

Ballast Requires Not requires

Lifespan 10,000 hours 50,000 hours and more.

Turn on Intensity Delay Quick

Two life preservers have identical volumes, but one is filled with Styrofoam while the other is filled with sand. When the two l
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

Sand

Explanation:

While the term buoyancy may confuse the reader, the question here is referring to buoyant force.

Buoyant force is the amount of pressure exerted on an object by the liquid it is in. Given by the formula

F_{b} = V_{o} D_{l} g

Where

F_{b} = Buoyant Force

V_{o} = Volume of Object submerged in the liquid

D_{l} = Density of Liquid

g = Force of gravity

Since in this question the swimmer with the sand is completely submerged in water, more of the volume of his preserver is under the water hence the buoyant force is greater on it than the swimmer with the Styrofoam (as part of him is not submerged in water)
