Physics
1 answer:
blsea [12.9K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

A.

Explanation:

Earth is composed of different layers and one layer moves over another due to differences in the densities.

According to the physics of density, a substance having less density floats over a higher density substance. The oceanic crust has more density than the continental crust that is why continental crust float over oceanic crust.

So in the given example, plate B is moving below the plate A, it means plate B is more dense than plate A because plate B is composed of oceanic crust . <u>For example : continents float over the asthenosphere (a layer below the lithosphere).</u>

Hence, the correct answer is "A ".

If the distance between the two mass double what happens to the gravitational force
Kryger [21]

If the mass of both of the objects is doubled, then the force of gravity between them is quadrupled; and so on. Since gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the separation distance between the two interacting objects, more separation distance will result in weaker gravitational forces.

A girl lifts a 160-N load to a height of 1 min 0.5 s. How much power is used to lift the load?
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer: 320 W

Explanation:

P = W/t

W = F * d

F = 160 N

d = 1 m

t = 0.5 s

W = 160 * 1

W = 160 J

P = 160 J / 0.5 s

P = 320 W

(Figure 1) shows the angular-velocity-versus-time graph for a particle moving in a circle. How many revolutions does the object
Travka [436]

Answer: 10.34

Explanation:

Given

\omega -t graph for a particle is given

angle turned by the particle in radians is given by the area under \omega -t graph

The area is given by

A=20\times (2-0)+10(4-2)+\dfrac{1}{2}\times (20-10)\times (3-2)\\A=40+20+5=65\ rad

Revolutions(N) made by the object is given by

N=\dfrac{65}{2\pi }=10.34
