Determina la presion hidrostatica en el fondo de una alberca olimpica de 8metros de profundidad

The current theory of the structure of the Earth, called plate tectonics, tells us that the continents are in constant motion.

lesya [120]

Answer:

(a) m = 1.6 x 10²¹ kg

(b) K.E = 2.536 x 10¹¹ J

(c) v = 7.12 x 10⁵ m/s

Explanation:

(a)

First we find the volume of the continent:

V = L*W*H

where,

V = Volume of Slab = ?

L = Length of Slab = 4450 km = 4.45 x 10⁶ m

W = Width of Slab = 4450 km = 4.45 x 10⁶ m

H = Height of Slab = 31 km = 3.1 x 10⁴ m

Therefore,

V = (4.45 x 10⁶ m)(4.45 x 10⁶ m)(3.1 x 10⁴ m)

V = 6.138 x 10¹⁷ m³

Now, we find the mass:

m = density*V

m = (2620 kg/m³)(6.138 x 10¹⁷ m³)

m = 1.6 x 10²¹ kg

(b)

The kinetic energy will be:

K.E = (1/2)mv²

where,

v = speed = (1 cm/year)(0.01 m/1 cm)(1 year/365 days)(1 day/24 h)(1 h/3600 s)

v = 3.17 x 10⁻¹⁰ m/s

Therefore,

K.E = (1/2)(1.6 x 10²¹ kg)(3.17 x 10⁻¹⁰ m/s)²

K.E = 2.536 x 10¹¹ J

(c)

For the same kinetic energy but mass = 77 kg:

K.E = (1/2)mv²

2.536 x 10¹¹ J = (1/2)(77 kg)v²

v = √(2)(2.536 x 10¹¹ J)

v = 7.12 x 10⁵ m/s

Increasing which two things would increase gravitational potential energy?

sukhopar [10]

Answer:

Mass and height

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is energy an object possesses because of its position in a gravitational field. The most common use of gravitational potential energy is for an object near the surface of the Earth where the gravitational acceleration can be assumed to be constant at about $9.8 m/s2.$

Which is represented as;

$PE_g=mgh$

$PE_g$ stands for gravitational potantial energy,

m stands for mass of object,

g is the gravitational constant and

h is the height.

Here we see that mass of object and height is directly proportional to the gravitational potential energy.

That means increasing in mass and height will result in increasing gravitational potential energy.

Calculate the change in length of a Pyrex glass dish (Coefficient of linear expansion for Pyrex is 3 * 10-6 / oC) that is 0.25 m

DIA [1.3K]

9* $10^{-5}$ m

Explanation:

Step 1:

We are given the initial length of the Pyrex glass dish at a particular temperature and need to calculate the change in the length when the temperature changes by 120° C. The coefficient of linear expansion of Pyrex is provided.

Step 2:

Change in length = Coefficient of linear expansion * Change in temperature * Initial length

Step 3:

Coefficient of linear expansion = 3* $10^{-6}$ /°C

Change in temperature = 120°C = 120 K

Initial length = 0.25 m

Step 4:

Change in length = 3* $10^{-6}$ * 120 * 0.25 = 9* $10^{-5}$ m
