The ramp has dimensions of 20 m length and 4 m height. The angle made by the ramp on the horizontal ground is
θ = sin⁻¹ (4/20)
After getting the angle, the force required to move the box can then be solved given that the mass of the box is known and also the coefficient of friction of the ramp

The Goodyear blimps, which frequently fly over sporting events, hold approximately 1.65_105ft3 of helium.
Sonbull [250]
Applying the ideal gas equation:
PV = nRT
PV = (mass/Mr)RT
mass = PVMr/RT
mass = (101325 x 4672.2 x 4) / (8.314 x 297)
= 766887.3 kg
= 7.7 x 10⁵ kg

In the Earth's mantle, heat is transferred in large convection currents. Within these currents,
Inessa05 [86]

In the Earth's mantle, heat is transferred in large convection currents. Within these currents "hotter rock rises and cooler rock sinks".

Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

Heat rises occur and the hotter rock gets farther away from the Earth's overheated core it starts to chill out and continues to sink back towards the Earth's overheated center where it gets reheated and also the entire procedure begins again. It's what a current in convection is.

Convection currents are part of what keeps the Earth's atmosphere through global circulation. The convection currents contribute to conditions in the air and sea. Magma travels in convection currents at Earth's mantle. The hot cores heat the above substance, allowing it to rise to the crust where it cools.
