Continent jig-saw shapes when puzzled and combined together, formed one big continent - Pangea, and was separated by drifts.

Fossil comparisons of different species were discovered into two different, separated continents in which when you combine them, they were one in the past.

Seismic, volcanic, and geothermal activity are found along imagined plate boundaries.

Plates were actually rubbing against each other as evidence is seen on the formed mountain ranges.

A 1.8 kg uniform rod with a length of 90 cm is attached at one end to a frictionless pivot. It is free to rotate about the pivot

Leokris [45]

Answer:

a. 32.67 rad/s² b. 29.4 m/s²

Explanation:

a. The initial angular acceleration of the rod

Since torque τ = Iα = WL (since the weight of the rod W is the only force acting on the rod , so it gives it a torque, τ at distance L from the pivot )where I = rotational inertia of uniform rod about pivot = mL²/3 (moment of inertia about an axis through one end of the rod), α = initial angular acceleration, W = weight of rod = mg where m = mass of rod = 1.8 kg and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and L = length of rod = 90 cm = 0.9 m.

So, Iα = WL

mL²α/3 = mgL

dividing through by mL, we have

Lα/3 = g

multiplying both sides by 3, we have

Lα = 3g

dividing both sides by L, we have

α = 3g/L

Substituting the values of the variables, we have

α = 3g/L

= 3 × 9.8 m/s²/0.9 m

= 29.4/0.9 rad/s²

= 32.67 rad/s²

b. The initial linear acceleration of the right end of the rod?

The linear acceleration at the initial point is tangential, so a = Lα = 0.9 m × 32.67 rad/s² = 29.4 m/s²

A particular car engine operates between temperatures of 440°C (inside the cylinders of the engine) and 20°C (the temperature of

Step2247 [10]

One of the concepts to be used to solve this problem is that of thermal efficiency, that is, that coefficient or dimensionless ratio calculated as the ratio of the energy produced and the energy supplied to the machine.

From the temperature the value is given as

$\eta = 1-\frac{T_L}{T_H}$

Where,

T_L = Cold focus temperature

T_H = Hot spot temperature

Our values are given as,

T_L = 20\° C = (20+273) K = 293 K

T_H = 440\° C = (440+273) K = 713 K

Replacing we have,

$\eta = 1-\frac{T_L}{T_H}$

$\eta = 1-\frac{293}{713}$

$\eta = 0.589$

Therefore the maximum possible efficiency the car can have is 58.9%
