I NEED HELP ASAP!!! 100 points if you answer these 7 questions:
netineya [11]

Answer:

#1. B. Alfred Wegener

#2. C. Volcanic activity at the ocean bottom.

#3. B, C. Continental, Sea floor (oceanic).

#4. B. Folding

#5. B. Tectonics

#6. C. Point underground where the earthquake starts

#7. C. Flood waters carrying away soil

Explanation:

#1. Alfred Lothar Wegener was a German polar researcher, geophysicist and meteorologist. During his lifetime he was primarily known for his achievements in meteorology and as a pioneer of polar research, and is also known as the father of plate tectonics.

#2. The most prominent feature of ocean topography discovered in the 1960s was: Volcanic activity at the ocean bottom. The continents have always been in their current positions.

#3. Tectonic plates are composed of oceanic lithosphere and thicker continental lithosphere, each topped by its own kind of crust. The two types of tectonic plates are continental and oceanic tectonic plates.

#4. Tremendous pushing forces exerted by two of Earth's plates moving together squeezed rock layers from opposite sides. This caused the rock layers to buckle and fold, forming folded mountains. Folded mountains are mountains formed by the folding of rock layers caused by compression forces.

#5. Plate tectonics is the scientific theory explaining the movement of the earth's crust. It is widely accepted by scientists today. Recall that both continental landmasses and the ocean floor are part of the earth's crust, and that the crust is broken into individual pieces called tectonic plates.

#6. The hypocenter is the point within the earth where an earthquake rupture starts. The epicenter is the point directly above it at the surface of the Earth. Also commonly termed the focus. See also epicenter.

#7. This process is known as erosion. In earth science, erosion is the action of surface processes that removes soil, rock, or dissolved material from one location on the Earth's crust, and then transports it to another location.

Hope this helps!

Have a nice day!

How much momentum will a dumb-bell of mass 10 kg transfer
frosja888 [35]

We want to find how much momentum the dumbbell has at the moment it strikes the floor. Let's use this kinematics equation:

Vf² = Vi² + 2ad

Vf is the final velocity of the dumbbell, Vi is its initial velocity, a is its acceleration, and d is the height of its fall.

Given values:

Vi = 0m/s (dumbbell starts falling from rest)

a = 10m/s² (we'll treat downward motion as positive, this doesn't affect the result as long as we keep this in mind)

d = 80×10⁻²m

Plug in the values and solve for Vf:

Vf² = 2(10)(80×10⁻²)

Vf = ±4m/s

Reject the negative root.

Vf = 4m/s

The momentum of the dumbbell is given by:

p = mv

p is its momentum, m is its mass, and v is its velocity.

Given values:

m = 10kg

v = 4m/s (from previous calculation)

Plug in the values and solve for p:

p = 10(4)

p = 40kg×m/s
