Answer:

Oceanic crust is about 6 km (4 miles) thick. It is composed of several layers, not including the overlying sediment. The topmost layer, about 500 metres (1,650 feet) thick, includes lavas made of basalt (that is, rock material consisting largely of plagioclase [feldspar] and pyroxene).

A container is filled with water to a depth of 26.2 cm. On top of the water floats a 16.1 cm thick layer of oil with a density of
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

1.34 x 10^3 Pa

Explanation:

density of oil = 0.85 x 10^3 kg/m^3

g = 9.81 m/s^2

height of oil column = 16.1 cm = 0.161 m

Pressure on the surface of water = height of oil column x density of oil x g

                                                      = 0.161 x 0.85 x 10^3 x 9.81 = 1.34 x 10^3 Pa

Thus, the pressure on the surface of water is 1.34 x 10^3 Pa.

It was a children versus grown-ups competition at school. One event required the adult to throw a basketball as far as he could.
aleksklad [387]
Based on Newton's Law, the event is not fair because:

<span>No, because a basketball is bigger than a baseball, and objects that are bigger accelerate slower.

During an adiabatic process an object does 100 J of work and its temperature decreases by 5 K. During another process it does 25
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The heat capacity for the second process is 15 J/K.

Explanation:

Given that,

Work = 100 J

Change temperature = 5 k

For adiabatic process,

The heat energy always same.

dQ=0

dU=-dW

We need to calculate the number of moles and specific heat

Using formula of heat

dU=nC_{v}dT

nC_{v}=\dfrac{dU}{dT}

Put the value into the formula

nC_{v}=\dfrac{-100}{5}

nC_{v}=-20\ J/K

We need to calculate the heat

Using formula of heat

dQ=nC_{v}(dT_{1})+dW_{1}

Put the value into the formula

dQ=-20\times5+25

dQ=-75\ J

We need to calculate the heat capacity for the second process

Using formula of heat

dQ=nC_{v}(dT_{1})

Put the value into the formula

-75=nC_{v}\times(-5)

nC_{v}=\dfrac{-75}{-5}

nC_{v}=15\ J/K

Hence, The heat capacity for the second process is 15 J/K.

A 50 kg skydiver is falling downwards and accelerating 6 m/s2 down. What is the net force on the skydiver?
Montano1993 [528]

Net Force = (mass) x (acceleration)  (Newton #2)

Net Force = (50 kg) x (6 m/s² down)

Net Force = (50 * 6) (kg-m/s² down)

<em>Net Force = 300 Newtons down</em>

Absolute differences between each observed mass and the accepted value,divided by the accepted value, multiplied by 100%
timama [110]

Answer:

The percentage error    e% = Δm/m 100    

Explanation:

The absolute error is the assessment with which measurements are made, it is given by the minimum reading value of a given instrument.

The accepted value is the value measured in an instrument. Or the one calculated by an experiment.

The percentage error is the ratio of the absolute error between the value of the average per 100

      e% = Δm/m 100
