<span>he theory states that Earth's outermost layer, the lithosphere, is broken into 7 large, rigid pieces called plates: the African, North American, South American, Eurasian, Australian, Antarctic, and Pacific plates. Several minor plates also exist, including the Arabian, Nazca, and Philippines plates. The plates are all moving in different directions and at different speeds</span>

What magnification will be produced by a lens of power –4.00 D (such as might be used to correct myopia) if an object is held 43
kiruha [24]

Answer:

The magnification is m  = 0.3674

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  power of the lens is  P = -4.00 D(dioptre)

Generally  1 dioptre = 1 \ meter

  The object distance is u =  -43 \ cm the negative sign is because the distance is measured in the opposite direction of incident light (i.e away )

 Generally the focal length is mathematically represented as

          f = \frac{1}{P}  

   =>f = \frac{1}{4.00 }  

  =>  f = 0.25 \ m

converting to  cm  

 =>   f = 0.25 \ m = 0.25 * 100 = 25 \ cm

Generally from lens equation  we have that  

     \frac{1}{f} +\frac{1}{v} -\frac{1}{u}

=>  \frac{1}{25} +\frac{1}{v} -\frac{1}{-43}

=>   v =  -15.8 \ cm

Generally the magnification is mathematically represented as

      m  = \frac{v}{u}

=>    m  = \frac{- 15.8}{-43}

=>    m  = 0.3674

How much heat is released when 432 g of water cools down from 71'c to 18'c?
maria [59]
The heat released by the water when it cools down by a temperature difference \Delta T is
Q=mC_s \Delta T
where
m=432 g is the mass of the water
C_s = 4.18 J/g^{\circ}C is the specific heat capacity of water
\Delta T =71^{\circ}C-18^{\circ}C=53^{\circ} is the decrease of temperature of the water

Plugging the numbers into the equation, we find
Q=(432 g)(4.18 J/g^{\circ}C)(53^{\circ}C)=9.57 \cdot 10^4 J
and this is the amount of heat released by the water.

Hii I need help ASAP with this physics question
Readme [11.4K]

Between the top of the first and the top of the second loop, the coaster has lost potential energy = mgh, where h = 22.2 - 15 = 7.2m

This energy would have converted to Kinetic. Write out an equation and the masses will cancel out. Does that hint help you to find the solution? If not, I will give you another hint.

What is the difference between a theory and a law?
algol [13]

A theory is a system of ideas that isn't exactly proven to be true fully. A law is a description of whatever scientific phenomena you're studying. All you need to know is a law describes, and a theory explains.
