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.

what is the net force required to give an automobile with a mass of 1,600 kg an acceleration of 4.5m/s
Dmitrij [34]

Hi there!

Recall Newton's Second Law:

\large\boxed{\Sigma F = ma}}

∑F = Net force (N)

m = mass (kg)

a = acceleration (m/s²)

We are already given the mass and acceleration, so we can plug these values into the equation:

∑F = 1600 · 4.5 = 7200 N

Gretchen runs the first 4.0 km of a race at 5.0 m/s. Then a stiff wind comes up, so she runs the last 1.0 km at only 4.0 m/s.
KIM [24]

Answer:

The velocity is v = 4.76 \ m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The first distance is   d_1  =  4.0 \ km  =  4000 \ m

   The  first speed  is  v_1 =  5.0 \ m/s

    The  second distance is  d_2  =  1.0 \ km  =  1000 \ m

    The  second speed  is  v_2  =  4.0 \ m/s

Generally the time taken for first distance is  

      t_1 =  \frac{d_1 }{v_1 }

        t_1 =  \frac{4000}{5}

       t_1 =  800 \ s

The time taken for second  distance is

           t_1 =  \frac{d_2 }{v_2 }

        t_1 =  \frac{1000}{4}

       t_1 =  250 \ s

The total time is mathematically represented as

     t =  t_1 + t_2

=>   t =  800 + 250

=>    t =  1050 \ s

Generally the constant velocity that would let her finish at the same time is mathematically represented as

      v =  \frac{d_1 + d_2}{t }

=>    v =  \frac{4000 + 1000}{1050 }

=>    v = 4.76 \ m/s

Consider a system of two particles: ball A with a mass m is moving to the right a speed 2v and ball B with a mass 3m is moving t
arlik [135]

Answer:

Explanation:

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

System of two particle

Ball A has mass

Ma = m

Ball A is moving to the right (positive x axis) with velocity of

Va = 2v •i

Ball B has a mass

Mb = 3m

Ball B is moving to left (negative x axis) with a velocity of

Vb = -v •i

Velocity of centre of mass Vcm?

Velocity of centre of mass can be calculated using

Vcm = 1/M ΣMi•Vi

Where M is sum of mass

M = M1 + M2 + M3 +...

Therefore,

Vcm=[1/(Ma + Mb)] × (Ma•Va +Mb•Vb

Rearranging for better understanding

Vcm = (Ma•Va + Mb•Vb) / ( Ma + Mb)

Vcm = (m•2v + 3m•-v) / (m + 3m)

Vcm = (2mv — 3mv) / 4m

Vcm = —mv / 4m

Vcm = —v / 4

Vcm = —¼V •i
