<h2>Movement of Continents</h2>

Explanation:

Alfred Wegener was a German astronomer who proposed the "continental drift" hypothesis in 1910.
Alfred Wegener was not able to explain the movements of the continent in how and in which way they are moved.
He failed in an attempt to explain with the use of tides made the theory undefinable fully.
Also, the major problem with Wegener's theory of Continental Drift was that there was no proper explanation of a mechanism.

A capacitor with plates separated by a distance d is charged to a potential difference ΔVC. All wires and batteries are disconne

Tom [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial separation of plate = d

final separation = 2d

The capacitance of the capacitor will reduce from C to C/2 because

capacitance = ε A / d

d is distance between plates.

As the batteries are disconnected , charge on the capacitor becomes fixed .

Initial charge on the capacitor

= Capacitance x potential difference

Q = C ΔV

Final charge will remain unchanged

Final charge = C ΔV

Final capacitance = C/2

Final potential difference = charge / capacitance

= C ΔV / C/2

= 2 ΔV

Potential difference is doubled after the pates are further separated.

If the tire reaches a temperature of 48 ∘c, what fraction of the original air must be removed if the original pressure of 250 kp

andrey2020 [161]

Assuming air as ideal gas and amount of air in no of moles is known then by gas law,

PV= nRT

Pressure is constant

P* (change in volume) = nR* (change in temperature)

A mixed cost contains Select one:

-Dominant- [34]

A mixed cost contains a variable element and a fixed element.

Option a

<u>Explanation:</u>

Mixed costs are those costs that has both variable and fixed component. Example: operating cost of a machinery includes fixed costs that cannot be changed with other variable costs like fuel, insurance, depreciation, etc.

It is also named as semi-variable costs. And the formula to calculate mixed cost is as follows,

$y=a+b x$

where,

y is the "total cost "
a is the "fixed cost per period"
b is the "variable rate per unit of activity"
x is the "number of units of activity"

A yo-yo has a string that is 0.95 m in length. What is the period of oscillation if the yo-yo is allowed to swing back and forth

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

As we know the , equation of time period for simple pendulum ,

T = 2*pi* $\sqrt{l/g}$

hence putting values we get ,
