<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>

It turns out that Mercury and Mars have the same gravity as one another – that is, you would weigh the same on the surface of Me
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The value of acceleration due to gravity of mars is same as that the value of acceleration due to gravity of Mercury.

The value of acceleration due to gravity of a planet depends on its mass and the radius.

The formula for the acceleration due to gravity is given by

g=\frac{GM}{R^{2}}

Where, M be the mass of the planet, R be the radius of the planet.

As according to the question, the value of acceleration due to gravity for Mercury is same as that of Mars.

\frac{GM_{mercury}}{R_{mercury}^{2}}=\frac{GM_{mars}}{R_{mars}^{2}}

\frac{M_{mercury}}{R_{mercury}^{2}}=\frac{M_{mars}}{R_{mars}^{2}}

As teh radius of Mercury is small, and acceleration due to gravity is same, it is possible because the mass of Mercury is more than the mass of Mars.

A particular frost-free refrigerator uses about 710kWh of electrical energy per year. Express this amount of energy in J, kJ, &a
Dafna11 [192]
<span>A particular frost-free refrigerator uses about 710kWh of electrical energy per year. You are to express this amount of energy in J, kJ, & Calories. 

1 year (365 days / 1 year)(24 hours / 1 day)(3600s / 1h) = 31,536,000s

710 kWh/yr (1 yr) = 710 kWh
710 x 10^3 Wh = </span>710 x 10^3(J/s)(31,536,000s)<span> = 2.24 x 10^13 J
</span>2.24 x 10^13 J = 2.24 x 10^10 kJ = 5.35 x 10^12 cal
