1) The mass of the continent is 3.3\cdot 10^{21} kg

2) The kinetic energy of the continent is 624 J

3) The speed of the jogger must be 4 m/s

Explanation:

1)

We start by finding the volume of the continent. We have:

L = 5850 km = 5.85\cdot 10^6 m is the side

t = 35 km = 3.5\cdot 10^4 m is the depth

So the volume is

V=L^2 t = (5.85\cdot 10^6)^2 (3.5\cdot 10^4)=1.20\cdot 10^{18} m^3

We also know that its density is

d=2750 kg/m^3

Therefore, we can find the mass by multiplying volume by density:

m=dV=(2750)(1.20\cdot 10^{18})=3.3\cdot 10^{21} kg

2)

The kinetic energy of the continent is given by:

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m=3.3\cdot 10^{21} kg is its mass

v = 3.2 cm/year is the speed

We have to convert the speed into m/s. We have:

3.2 cm = 0.032 m

1 year = 1(365)(24)(60)(60)=3.15\cdot 10^7 s

So, the speed is:

v=\frac{0.032 m}{3.15 \cdot 10^7 s}=1.02\cdot 10^{-9} m/s

So, we can now find the kinetic energy:

K=\frac{1}{2}(1.20\cdot 10^{21})(1.02\cdot 10^{-9})^2=624 J

3)

Here we have a jogger of mass

m = 78 kg

And the jogger has the same kinetic energy of the continent, so

K = 624 J

The kinetic energy of the jogger is given by

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where v is the speed of the jogger.

Solving for v, we find the speed that the jogger must have:

v=\sqrt{\frac{2K}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(624)}{78}}=4 m/s

The capacitor can withstand a peak voltage of 590 volts. If the voltage source operates at the resonance frequency, what maximum
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

The maximum voltage is 41.92 V.

Explanation:

Given that,

Peak voltage = 590 volts

Suppose in an L-R-C series circuit, the resistance is 400 ohms, the inductance is 0.380 Henry, and the capacitance is 1.20×10^{-2}\ \mu F.

We need to calculate the resonance frequency

Using formula of frequency

f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi\sqrt{LC}}

Put the value into the formula

f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi\sqrt{0.380\times1.20\times10^{-8}}}

f=2356.88\ Hz

We need to calculate the maximum current

Using formula of current

I=\dfrac{V_{c}}{X_{c}}

I=2\pi\times f\times C\times V_{c}

I=2\pi\times2356.88\times1.20\times10^{-8}\times590

I=0.1048\ A

Impedance of the circuit is

z=\sqrt{R^2+(X_{L}^2-X_{C}^2)}

At resonance frequency X_{L}=X_{C}

Z=R

We need to calculate the maximum voltage

Using ohm's law

V=I\times R

V=0.1048\times400

V=41.92\ V

Hence, The maximum voltage is 41.92 V.

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Hello your question has some missing parts attached below is the complete question

answer : 4 μm

Explanation:

since the scale bar works the same way as a scale on a map , each bar will therefore represent 1 μm and the mature parent cell's is about 4 times the labeled value hence the Mature parent cell diameter will approximately be : 4 μm

Which of the following correctly describes the importance of demonstrations to scientific investigation?
sergey [27]

Answer:

A- A demonstration shows how something works, often including models

Explanation:

A demonstration allows, through experimentation, to show how nature works and in that way can include the explanation of scientific theories that explain the set of observed facts, that is, it serves as a demonstration of the underlying scientific principles.

A bird flying straight upward at 5 m/s drops a berry when it is 300 m above the ground. How fast is the berry going when it hits
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

v=77.62 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

h= - 300 m

speed of the bird ,u= 5 m/s

Lets take Speed of the berry when it hit the ground = v m/s

we know that ,if object is moving upward

v² = u² - 2 g h

u=Initial speed

v=Final speed

h=Height

Now by putting the values

v² = u² - 2 g h

v² = 5² - 2 x 10 x (-300)                ( take g = 10 m/s²)

v² =25 + 20 x 300

v² ==25 + 6000

v² =6025

v=77.62 m/s

Therefore the final speed of the berry will be 77.62 m/s.
