Answer:

The inner core is solid.

The outer core is liquid and moving.

Earth’s core is composed of iron and nickel.

Explanation:

Convection currents are produced in the outer liquid core. This motion together with the Earth's rotation creates a system of electrical currents, since it is composed of metals such as iron and nickel. The magnetic fields generated by the electric currents align, creating the Earth's magnetic field. The solid inner core acts as a stabilizer of the magnetic field generated by the liquid outer core.

why does diving 30m below sea level affect our bodies more than being in a building 30m above sea level

Genrish500 [490]

Imagine you are in a swimming pool 30m deep. Assuming you know that water is denser than air, you would know that the 30m of water above you will carry more weight, and press down on your body. Say you were in a swimming pool 60m deep, you would be sandwiched between 30m of water pressing down on you, and the upthrust created by the 30m of water below you.

In a building 30m up, the pressure will be regulated, as you are in a building. The floor will be strong enough to support the weight of the body, and the body will not recoil into itself.

A backyard swimming pool with a circular base of diameter 6.00m is filled to depth 1.50m. (b) Two persons with combined mass 150

Mashutka [201]

The pressure increase at the bottom of the pool after they enter the pool and float is 106.103 Pa.

<h3>What is absolute pressure?</h3>

Absolute pressure is the force that exists in a space when there is no matter present, or when there is a perfect vacuum. This absolute zero serves as the baseline for measurements in absolute pressure. The measurement of barometric pressure is the greatest illustration of an absolute referenced pressure. In order to determine absolute pressure, a complete vacuum is used. In contrast, gauge pressure is the amount of pressure that is measured in relation to atmospheric pressure, also referred to as barometric pressure.

given,

diameter = 6 m

depth = h = 1.5 m

Atmospheric pressure = P₀ = 10⁵ Pa

a) absolute pressure

P = P₀ + ρ g h

P = 10⁵ + 1000 x 10 x 1.5

P = 1.15 x 10⁵ Pa

b) When two person enters into the pool,

mass of the two person = 150 Kg

weight of water level displaced exists equal to the weight of person.

$\rho \mathrm{Vg}=2 \mathrm{mg} \\$

$V=\frac{2 m}{\rho} \\$

$V=\frac{2 \times 150}{1000} \\$

$\mathrm{~V}=0.3 \mathrm{~m}^3$

Area of pool $=\frac{\pi}{4} d^2$

$&=\frac{\pi}{4} \times 6^2 \\$

$&=28.27 \mathrm{~m}^2$

Height of the water rise

$h &=\frac{V}{A} \\$

$h &=\frac{0.3}{28.27} \\$

$& \mathrm{~h}=0.0106 \mathrm{~m}$

Pressure increased

P = ρ g h

P = 1000 x 10 x 0.0106

P = 106.103 Pa

3) Magnets are used to separate steel cans from aluminum cans in recycling plants. How can

Elden [556K]

Answer:

Since steel contains iron (a magnetic metal), the magnets will attract the steel cans since aluminum is not magnetic. This is used to separate the steel cans from the aluminum cans so they can be recycled separately.
