which process was found after wegeners time, helped scientists find out how the continents actually move.

Genrish500 [490]

I don't quite know what you're asking so I'll just go on a rant :) Wegener created and supported the continental drift theory, which stated that all of the continents once formed a super continent called Pangea. No one at the time believed in the theory though so he spent the rest of his life trying to find evidence to prove it. However, after he died scientists began to find information that supported his theory. When scientists began to study Earth's surface and the layers below, the theory of the tectonic plates was formed. This theory stated that Earth's crust, the lithosphere, was divided into twelve moving plates. This theory did in fact prove that Wegener's theory was correct. Another theory that proved Wegener's theory to be true was the process of Sea Floor Spreading. This theory stated that at divergent plate boundaries, new ocean floor was being created and the old was being pushed away from the boundary, the old sea floor would then be pushed to deep sea trenches created by convergent plate boundaries and essentially recycled back into the Earth. I hope this helped, sorry it is so long :)

A car of 900 kg mass is moving at the velocity of 60 km/hr. It is brought into rest at 50 meter distance by applying a brake. No

kozerog [31]

Answer: $-2502N$

Explanation:

$(V_2)^2=(V_1)^2+2ad$

where;

$V_2$ = final velocity = 0

$V_1$ = initial velocity = 60 km/h = 16.67 m/s

$a$ = acceleration

$d$ = distance

First all of, because acceleration is given in m/s and not km/h, you need to convert 60km/h to m/s. Our conversion factors here are 1km = 1000m and 1h = 3600s

$60km/h(\frac{1000m}{1km} )(\frac{1h}{3600s} )=16.67m/s$

Solve for a;

$(V_2)^2=(V_1)^2+2ad$

Begin by subtracting $(V_1)^2$

$(V_2)^2-(V_1)^2=2ad$

Divide by 2d

$\frac{(V_2)^2-(V_1)^2}{2d} =a$

Now plug in your values:

$a=\frac{(0)^2-(16.67 m/s)^2}{2(50m)}$

$a=\frac{0-277.89m^2/s^2}{100m}$

$a=-2.78m/s$

If you're wondering why I calculated acceleration first is because in order to find force, we need 2 things: mass and acceleration.

$F=ma$

m = mass = 900kg

a = acceleration = -2.78m/s

$F=(900kg)(-2.78m/s)\\F=-2502N$

It's negative because the force has to be applied in the opposite direction that the car is moving.

You are driving along a highway at 35.0 m/s when you hear the siren of a police car approaching you from behind and you perceive

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

In the first case you can use the expression for the Doppler effect when the source is getting closer and getting away

$f'=f(\frac{v}{v-v_{s}})$ ( 1 )

$f''=f(\frac{v}{v+v_s})$ ( 2 )

f' = perceived frequency when the source is getting closer

f'' = perceived frequency when the source is getting away

f = source frequency

v = relative speed

vs = sound speed

by dividing (1) and (2) you have

$\frac{f'}{f''}=\frac{f}{f}\frac{\frac{v}{v-v_s}}{\frac{v}{v+v_s}}=\frac{v+v_s}{v-v_s}\\\\f'v-f'v_s=f''v+f''v_s\\\\v(f'-f'')=v_s(f''+f')\\\\v=v_s\frac{f''+f'}{f'-f''}=(340\frac{m}{s})\frac{1370Hz+1330Hz}{1370Hz-1330Hz}=67.5\frac{m}{s}$

but this is the relative velocity, you have that

$v=v_{sir}-v_{car}\\v_{sir}=v+v_{car}=67.5\frac{m}{s}+35\frac{m}{s}=102.5\frac{m}{s}$

a. hence, the speed of the police car is 102.5m/s
