Solution: C. Pangea

The hypothesis of Continental drift suggests that in past, there was only one landmass on the Earth -Pangaea which drifted apart due to movement of plate tectonics causing earthquake. This hypothesis is supported by many evidences which includes presence of similar fossils on different landmasses, common land features such as widespread presence of glacial sediments etc.

You place a point charge q = -4.00 nC a distance of 9.00 cm from an infinitely long, thin wire that has linear charge density 3.

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

$F=6\times 10^{-7}\ N$

Explanation:

Given:

quantity of point charge, $q=-4\times 10^{-9}\ C$

radial distance from the linear charge, $r=0.09\ m$

linear charge density, $\lambda=3\times 10^{-9}\ C.m^{-1}$

<u>We know that the electric field by the linear charge is given as:</u>

$E=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi.\epsilon_0.r}$

$E=\frac{1}{2}\times 9\times 10^9\times \frac{3\times10^{-9}}{0.09}$

$E=150\ N.C^{-1}$

<u>Now the force on the given charge can be given as:</u>

$F=E.q$

$F=150\times 4\times 10^{-9}$

$F=6\times 10^{-7}\ N$

9. How much work is done when a 15kg box is lifted to a height of 2 meters?

torisob [31]

Answer: W = 294 J

Explanation: Solution:

Work is expressed as the product of force and the distance of the object.

W = Fd where F = mg

W= Fd

= mg d

= 15 kg ( 9.8 m/s²) ( 2m )

= 294 J

An electric furnace is to melt 40 kg of aluminium/hour. The initial temperature of aluminium is 32°C. Given that aluminium has s

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Part a)

P = 13.93 kW

Part b)

R = 8357.6 Cents

Explanation:

Part A)

heat required to melt the aluminium is given by

$Q = ms\Delta T + mL$

here we have

$Q = 40(950)(680 - 32) + 40(450 \times 10^3)$

$Q = 24624 kJ + 18000 kJ$

$Q = 42624 kJ$

Since this is the amount of aluminium per hour

so power required to melt is given by

$P = \frac{Q}{t}$

$P = \frac{42624}{3600} kW$

$P = 11.84 kW$

Since the efficiency is 85% so actual power required will be

$P = \frac{11.84}{0.85} = 13.93 kW$

Part B)

Total energy consumed by the furnace for 30 hours

$Energy = power \times time$

$Energy = 13.93 kW\times 30 h$

$Energy = 417.9 kWh$

now the total cost of energy consumption is given as

$R = P \times 20 \frac{Cents}{kWh}$

$R = 417.9 kWh\times 20 \frac{cents}{kWh}$

$R = 8357.6 Cents$
