v = average speed of movement of the Southwest Indian Ridge = 20 mm/year
d = distance moved by the Southwest Indian Ridge = 100 mm
t = number of years required to move distance "d"
distance traveled is given as
d = v t
inserting the above values in the formula
100 mm = (20 mm/year) t
dividing both side by 20 mm/year
t = 100 mm/(20 mm/year)
t = 5 years
The answer would be the sound waves.
Answer:
The block will not move.
Explanation:
We'll begin by calculating the frictional force. This can be obtained as follow:
Coefficient of friction (µ) = 0.6
Mass of block (m) = 3 Kg
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²
Normal reaction (R) = mg = 3 × 10 = 30 N
Frictional force (Fբ) =?
Fբ = µR
Fբ = 0.6 × 30
Fբ = 18 N
From the calculations made above, the frictional force of the block is 18 N. Since the frictional force (i.e 18 N) is bigger than the force applied (i.e 14 N), the block will not move.
Answer:
0.853 m/s
Explanation:
Total energy stored in the spring = Total kinetic energy of the masses.
1/2ke² = 1/2m'v².................... Equation 1
Where k = spring constant of the spring, e = extension, m' = total mass, v = speed of the masses.
make v the subject of the equation,
v = e[√(k/m')].................... Equation 2
Given: e = 39 cm = 0.39 m, m' = 0.4+0.4 = 0.8 kg, k = 1.75 N/cm = 175 N/m.
Substitute into equation 2
v = 0.39[√(1.75/0.8)
v = 0.39[2.1875]
v = 0.853 m/s
Hence the speed of each mass = 0.853 m/s
C) Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object. Velocity is the speed and direction of an object so acceleration is used to describe the rate of change. I hope this helps!!
