Question:
How do mountain glaciers and continental glaciers differ in terms of dimensions, thickness and patterns of movement?

Answer:
<span>
Continental glaciers are thicker, much more expansive sheets. Mountain glaciers flow downhill as a result of gravity acting on the mass of ice. Continental glaciers move in response to pressure from the weight of material in their thick midsections.

vichka [17]


Hi pupil Here's Your answer :::


➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡


Student's justification is not correct. Two equal and opposite force cancel each other if the act on the same body. According to the third law of motion action and reaction forces are equal and opposite but they both act on different bodies. Hence, they cannot cancel each other.

When we push a message track, then the applied force on the truck is not sufficient to overcome the force of friction between the tyres of truck and ground, hence, truck does not move.

A hockey puck is hit on a frozen lake and starts moving with a speed of 13.60 m/s. Exactly 6.2 s later, its speed is 7.20 m/s. (
stellarik [79]

Answer:

-1.03 m/s²

Explanation:

Acceleration: This can be defined as the rate of change of velocity. The S. I unit of acceleration is m/s².

Mathematically, acceleration is expressed as

a = (v-u)/t ........................ Equation 1

Where a = acceleration, v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t  = time.

Given: u = 13.60 m/s, v = 7.20 m/s t = 6.2 s.

Substituting into equation 2

a = (7.20-13.60)/6.2

a = -6.4/6.2

a = -1.03 m/s²

Note: a is negative because, the hockey puck is decelerating.

Hence the average acceleration = -1.03 m/s²

A 500 kg block is attached to a horizontal spring that is at its equilibrium length, and whose force constant is 30 N/m. The blo
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

x = 0.396 m

Explanation:

The best way to solve this problem is to divide it into two parts: one for the clash of the putty with the block and another when the system (putty + block) compresses it is   spring

Data the putty has a mass m1 and velocity vo1, the block has a mass m2 .  t's start using the moment to find the system speed.

Let's form a system consisting of putty and block; For this system the forces during the crash are internal and the moment is preserved. Let's write the moment before the crash

    p₀ = m1 v₀₁

Moment after shock

    p_{f} = (m1 + m2) v_{f}

   p₀ = p_{f}

   m1 v₀₁ = (m1 + m2) v_{f}

  v_{f} = v₀₁ m1 / (m1 + m2)

   v_{f}= 4.4 600 / (600 + 500)

  v_{f} = 2.4 m / s

With this speed the putty + block system compresses the spring, let's use energy conservation for this second part, write the mechanical energy before and after compressing the spring

Before compressing the spring

   Em₀ = K = ½ (m1 + m2) v_{f}²

After compressing the spring

   E_{mf} = Ke = ½ k x²

As there is no rubbing the energy is conserved

   Em₀ = E_{mf}

   ½ (m1 + m2) v_{f}² = = ½ k x²

   x = v_{f} √ (k / (m1 + m2))

   x = 2.4 √ (11/3000)

   x = 0.396 m

1. Millions of gallons of water are wasted by households in America on a yearly basis as a result of wastage of water in the laundry rooms. There are many ways by which water can be conserved in the laundry room, these include:
1. Using a high efficiency washing machine.
2. Choosing the right load sizes and cycles when using washing machines.
3. Wearing clothes more than once before washing them.
4. Collection of grey and rain water.
5. Treat difficult stains before washing them.

2. Using a high efficiency machine will ensure that water is used efficiently. A high efficiency washing machine uses much less water and save about 6,000 gallons of water for an average family on a yearly basis according to Environmental Protection Agency. 
Grey water refers to water that have used once. Water that has been used for washing clothes or bathing can be collected again, recycle and use for some household needs such as gardening, flushing of toilet, etc. Water tanks can also be installed to collect rain water which can be used for washing clothes. This will have positive effect on household overall water consumption.
