Earth can be modeled with five layers based on the strengths and physical properties of the materials in them. Put the layers in

order, with the outermost surface of Earth on top. The two layers of the core have been lumped together here.

Answer:

Crust, Upper mantle, mantle, outer core, inner core

Explanation:

The Earth's layers have been clasified in 5 according to the materials that conform them, theri physical properties, strengths and also their state of matter. We all know how the outer layer of the Earth looks like, but if we start to dig a huge hole we are going to see different types por materials due to a change in pressure, temperature, and other factors. At the very center of the Earth there's what's called "core". The core is liquid and at extremely high temperatures. This is because of the enormous amount of pressure the rest of the Earth is putting it under. So, if we list the different layers of the Earth according to the materials they are made of, from the Earth's surface to the core, the answer is:

1) Crust (surface)

2) Upper Mantle

3) Mantle

4) Outer core

5) Inner core

In some books you may find a layer called Lithosphere. Tis layer consists not only of the crust, but also it contains the transition zone between the upper mantle and the crust.

How do conservation tillage practices lead to agricultural sustainability?
Zielflug [23.3K]

Conservation tillage practices help reduce soil erosion and maintain soil nutrient levels.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The approach that helps in the reduction of doing tillage practices and also reducing its frequency. this is done for obtaining certain benefits for both environment and economic. This mainly focuses on providing sustainability by leaving some plants remaining in the soil.

It aims in decreasing the emission of gases of greenhouse effects like carbon dioxide. Using these practices helps in reducing the erosion and runoffs. This will promote health of the soil because the nutrients are not take off form the soil due to soil erosion and runoffs.

A meter stick is held vertically with one end on the floor and is then allowed to fall. Find the speed of the other end when it
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

5.4 ms⁻¹

Explanation:

Here we have to use conservation of energy. Initially when the stick is held vertical, its center of mass is at some height above the ground, hence the stick has some gravitational potential energy. As the stick is allowed to fall, its rotates about one. gravitational potential energy of the stick gets converted into rotational kinetic energy.

L = length of the meter stick = 1 m

m = mass of the meter stick

w = angular speed of the meter stick as it hits the floor

v = speed of the other end of the stick

we know that, linear speed and angular speed are related as

v = r w\\w = \frac{v}{r}

h = height of center of mass of meter stick above the floor = \frac{L}{2} = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5 m

I = Moment of inertia of the stick about one end

For a stick, momentof inertia about one end has the formula as

I = \frac{mL^{2} }{3}

Using conservation of energy

Rotational kinetic energy of the stick = gravitational potential energy

(0.5) I w^{2} = mgh\\(0.5)(\frac{mL^{2} }{3}) (\frac{v}{L} )^{2} = mgh\\(0.5)(\frac{v^{2} }{3}) = gh\\(0.5)(\frac{v^{2} }{3}) = (9.8)(0.5)\\v = 5.4 ms^{-1}

a mass on a spring vibrates in simple harmonic motion at an amplitude of 8.0 cm. if the mass of the object is 0.20kg and the spr
Reil [10]

Answer:

4.06 Hz

Explanation:

For simple harmonic motion, frequency is given by

f=\frac {1}{2\pi}\times \sqrt{\frac {k}{m}} where k is spring constant and m is the mass of the object.

Substituting 0.2 Kg for mass and 130 N/m for k then

f=\frac {1}{2\pi}\times \sqrt{\frac {130}{0.2}}=4.057670803\\f\approx 4.06 Hz
