What area of earth contains semi-solid rock and lava?

1 answer:

ioda3 years ago

4 0

Below the crust is the mantle, a dense, hot layer of semi-solid rock approximately 2,900 km thick. The mantle, which contains more iron, magnesium, and calcium than the crust, is hotter and denser because temperature and pressure inside the Earth increase with depth.

Hope this helped! :)
Can I be brainliest please?

An object starts at rest. Its acceleration over 30 seconds is shown in the graph below:

ddd [48]

Answer:

The instantaneous speed of the object after the first five seconds is 12.5 m/s.

(C) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

An object starts at rest. Its acceleration over 30 seconds.

We need to calculate the instantaneous speed of the object after the first five seconds

We know that,

Area under the acceleration -time graph gives speed.

According to figure,

$speed = area\ of\ tringle$

$speed=\dfrac{1}{2}\times b\times h$

$speed =\dfrac{1}{2}\times5\times5$

$speed-12.5\ m/s$

Hence, The instantaneous speed of the object after the first five seconds is 12.5 m/s.

Which material will displace a volume of water? Which material will displace a volume of water less than its own volume? Which m

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

1. all of them

2. cork and wax

3. iron, lead, and aluminum

4. none of them

Explanation:

1.Which material will displace a volume of water? all of them

When an object is introduced into a container with a volume of water, a volume of liquid equal to the volume of the object is displaced

2.Which material will displace a volume of water less than its own volume?

cork and wax

because the density of the object is less than that of the displaced liquid

3.Which material will displace a volume of water equal to its own volume?

iron, lead, and aluminum

because Arquimedes's principle: any body plunged inside a fluid in this case water experiences an ascending force called push, equivalent to the weight of the fluid removed by the body

4.Which material will displace a volume of water greater than its own volume?

None of them

Green light (λ = 518 nm) strikes a single slit at normal incidence. What width slit will produce a central maximum that is 3.00

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

6.9066 × 10⁻⁵ m

Explanation:

For constructive interference, the expression is:

$d\times sin\theta=m\times \lambda$

Where, m = 1, 2, .....

d is the distance between the slits.

The formula can be written as:

$sin\theta=\frac {\lambda}{d}\times m$ ....1

The location of the bright fringe is determined by :

$y=L\times tan\theta$

Where, L is the distance between the slit and the screen.

For small angle , $sin\theta=tan\theta$

So,

Formula becomes:

$y=L\times sin\theta$

Using 1, we get:

$y=L\times \frac {\lambda}{d}\times m$

Thus, the distance between the central maximum is 3.00 cm

First bright fringe , m = 1 occur at 3.00 / 2 = 1.50 cm

Since,

1 cm = 0.01 m

y = 0.0150 m

Given L = 2.00 m

λ = 518 nm

Since, 1 nm = 10⁻⁹ m

So,

λ = 518 × 10⁻⁹ m

Applying the formula as:

$0.0150\ m=2.00\ m\times \frac {518\times 10^{-9}\ m}{d}\times 1$

<u>⇒ d, distance between the slits = 6.9066 × 10⁻⁵ m</u>

Which sentence best explains the difference between potential energy and

yan [13]

Answer:

C. Potential energy is related to an object's position, and kinetic

Explanation:

The energy contained in the small motions of the object's molecules can be broken up into a combination of microscopic kinetic energy and potential energy.
