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.

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Velocity

Explanation:

We finds that the winds are coming from the west at 15 miles per hour. This information shows the velocity of the wind. Since, velocity is a vector quantity. It has both magnitude and direction. 15 miles per hour shows the speed of wind and west shows the direction of wind motion.

Hence, the given information describes wind velocity.

A ball is thrown straight up with a speed of 30 m/s, and air resistance is negligible. How long does it take the ball to reach t
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

3 seconds

Explanation:

Applying,

Applying,

v = u±gt................ Equation 1

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t = time, g = acceleration due to gravity.

From the question,

Given: v = 0 m/s ( at the maximum height), u = 30 m/s

Constant: g = -10 m/s

Substitute these values into equation 1

0 = 30-10t

10t = 30

t = 30/10

t = 3 seconds

A spring stretches 0.2 cm per newton of applied force. An object is suspended from the spring and a deflection of 3 cm is observ
siniylev [52]

Answer:

m=1.53kg    

Explanation:

To solve this problem we use the Hooke's Law:

F=k*\Delta x     (1)

F is the Force needed to expand or compress the spring by a distance Δx.

The spring stretches 0.2cm per Newton, in other words:

1N=k*0.2cm ⇒ k=1N/0.2cm=5N/cm  

The force applied is due to the weight

F=mg

We replace in (1):

mg=k*\Delta x  

We solve the equation for m:

m=k*\Delta x/g=5*3/9.81=1.53kg

A gas in a sealed container has a pressure of 50 kPa at 27°C. What will the pressure of the gas be if the temperature rises to 8
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

the final pressure of the gas is 60 kPa.

Explanation:

Given;

initial pressure of the gas, P₁ = 50 kPa = 50,000 Pa

initial temperature of the gas, T₁ = 27⁰ C = 27 + 273 = 300 k

final temperature of the gas, T₂ = 87⁰ C = 87 + 273 = 360 K

Let the final pressure of the gas = P₂

Apply pressure law;

\frac{P_1}{T_1} = \frac{P_2}{T_2} \\\\P_2 = \frac{P_1T_2}{T_1} = \frac{50,000 \times 360}{300}  = 60,000 \ Pa = 60 \ kPa

Therefore, the final pressure of the gas is 60 kPa.
