Dr. Alley has helped drill many holes in ice sheets. Special tools can be lowered down the holes on cables, and tracked to learn

the shapes of the holes. Initially, the holes are straight up and down. Years later, the holes are bent, because the ice in the ice sheet is flowing. What does it mean to say that the ice is flowing?

Answer:

Much like shakes in the mantle or iron warmed by a metal forger, the ice is practically hot enough to soften, and distorts as gravity pulls on it, without loosening up into lumps.

Explanation:

  • Materials warmed however not exactly to their liquefying point can results in deformation without breaking or dissolving.
  • It results from the extraordinary convection cells in the mantle. In the event that you list the temperature of the ice in degrees F, it is much colder than the mantle, or iron warmed by a metalworker, or a chocolate bar in your pocket.
  • Be that as it may, the ice has been warmed from total zero nearly to the liquefying temperature, much the same as the mantle and the iron and the chocolate, so the pressure from gravity can make the ice distort or stream.

Q3. You throw a ball into the air, it reaches a certain height and then comes back to you.
Grace [21]

The If a car is going round a curve , there is an acceleration because the direction of the velocity changes.

<h3>What is the direction of the velocity?</h3>

Now we know that if you throw the ball upwards, the motion is in opposite direction to gravity thus the ball is experiencing deceleration and the speed decreases. The velocity decreases and the acceleration is negative.

If the ball is coming down, then the ball is accelerated thus it speeds up and the direction of the acceleration is positive.

If a car is going round a curve, the vehicle is accelerating because the direction of the velocity changes even if its amount remains constant.

When a board is moving down a hill at 2 ms-1, it is experiencing an acceleration because the motion is in the same direction as gravity.

If a car is coming to a stop at a point, it experiences a deceleration and not an acceleration since the change of velocity with time is negative as the car comes to rest.

A yellow train of mass 100 kg is moving at 8 m/s towards an orange train of mass 200 kg traveling on the opposite direction on t
vladimir1956 [14]
Mass of yellow train, my = 100 kg

Initial Velocity of yellow train, = 8 m/s

mass of orange train = 200 kg

Initial Velocity of orange train = -1 m/s (since it moves opposite direction to the yellow train, we will put negative to show the opposite direction)

To calculate the initial momentum of both trains, we will use the principle of conservation of momentum which

The sum of initial momentum = the sum of final momentum


Since the question only wants the sum of initial momentum,

(100)(8) + (200)(-1) = 600 m/s

Leona [35]

Answer:

Fr = 26.83 [N]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the Pythagorean theorem, since the forces are vector quantities, that is, they have magnitude and density. Therefore the Pythagorean theorem is suitable for the solution of this problem.

F_{r}=\sqrt{(12)^{2}+(24)^{2}  } \\F_{r}=26.83[N]
