Where do Earth’s convection currents occur

Physics
1 answer:
Oksi-84 [34.3K]3 years ago
6 0
Convection currents occur in the magma drive plate tectonics. Here heat is generated from the radioactive decay of elements in the  interior of  the Earth, creating magma in the asthenosphere.

The velocity of blood flow is ________. A) in direct proportion to the total cross-sectional area of the blood vessels B) slower
Leto [7]

Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

The velocity at which blood flows in the blood vessels is inversely proportional to the total cross-sectional area of the blood vessels present in the body. This means that if the cross sectional area of the vessels low, then there will be high rate of blood flow, and vice versa. This blood flow is minimum in the case of capillaries, where it gets enough time for the exchanging of essential nutrients as well as gases.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

A chair exerts a force of 20 N on a floor and is not moving. What force does
AysviL [449]

The floor exerts 20 N of force on the chair

Explanation:

We can answer this question by using Newton's third law, which states that:

<em>"When an object A exerts a force (called action) on an object B, object B exerts an equal and opposite force (called reaction) on object A"</em>

In this problem, we can identify:

- Object A as the chair

- Object B as the floor

This means that the force of 20 N exerted by the chair on the floor is the action, and so the force exerted by the floor on the chair is the reaction. Newton's third law states that these two forces are equal and opposite: therefore, the force exerted by the floor on the chair is also 20 N, but in the opposite direction.

Two point charges, 1.8 pC and −1.8 pC, are separated by 7 µm. What is the dipole moment of this pair of charges?
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer: 12,600,000Cm

Explanation:

From the data's;

Charges(q) = 1.8 PC equal to 1.8 x 10^¹²C

Distance = 7 micrometer, is equal to 0.0000070m

From the equation of electric dipole moment, p= q x d, where q= charge, d=distance and p is the dipole moment.

Then we have 1.8x10^¹² x 0.0000070= 12,600,000Cm

NB: The charges are identical.
