The correct answer is this one:

<span>the continents have moved in the past and are still moving.

The theory of continental drift says that the continents are moving away slowly, today and in the past. In the past this has caused South America and Africa to drift apart, and it is driving the Americas to the west today.

What is energy converted to if it is not used to do work?
Romashka [77]

Answer:

the human body isn't very efficient at converting food into useful work. The human body is less than 5% efficient most of the time. The rest of the energy is converted to heat, which may or may not be useful, depending on how cool or warm a person wants to be.

A circular window of 30 cm diameter in a submarine can withstand a maximum force of 5.20 × 105 N. The maximum depth in a lake to
Svetach [21]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

         F = 5.20 \times 10^{5} N

         g = 9.8 m/s

         radius = \frac{diameter}{2}

                    = \frac{30 cm}{2} = 15 cm = 0.15 m   (as 1 m = 100 cm)

Formula to calculate depth is as follows.

        F = \rho \times g \times h \times A

or,      h = \frac{F}{\rho \times g \times A}        

       h = \frac{5.2 \times 10^{5}}{1000 \times 9.8 \times (3.1416 \times (0.15 m^{2})}

           = 751 m

Thus, we can conclude that the maximum depth in a lake to which the submarine can go without damaging the window is closest 750 m.

A 0.750kg block is attached to a spring with spring constant 13.5N/m . While the block is sitting at rest, a student hits it wit
vazorg [7]

Answer:

A)A=0.075 m

B)v= 0.21 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

m = 0.75 kg

K= 13.5 N

The natural frequency of the block given as

\omega =\sqrt{\dfrac{K}{m}}

The maximum speed v given as

v=\omega A

A=Amplitude

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{K}{m}}\times A

0.32=\sqrt{\dfrac{13.5}{0.75}}\times A

A=0.075 m

A= 0.75 cm

The speed at distance x

v=\omega \sqrt{A^2-x^2}

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{K}{m}}\times \sqrt{A^2-x^2}

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{13.5}{0.75}}\times \sqrt{0.075^2-(0.075\times 0.75)^2}

v= 0.21 m/s

Which of these would be an example of unbalanced forces?

A snowball picks up speed as it rolls down the mountain.<em> (D)</em>

Since the description includes acceleration ("picks up speed"), we know that the forces on the snowball must be unbalanced.
