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.

When an astronomer sees certain stars and galaxies that look much redder than expected, what conclusion might the astronomer dra
Ratling [72]

It all comes to the doppler effect, the red shift means that the galaxy is moving away from us. The redshift is a result from the doppler effect, so as the galaxy moves away the wavelength expands, increasing the wavelength which responds to the red light.

Several springs are connected as illustrated below in (a). Knowing the individual springs stiffness k1 = 20 N/m, k2 = 30 N/m, k3
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

The equivalent stiffness of the string is 8.93 N/m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Spring stiffness is

k_{1}=20\ N/m

k_{2}=30\ N/m

k_{3}=15\ N/m

k_{4}=20\ N/m

k_{5}=35\ N/m

According to figure,

k_{2} and k_{3} is in series

We need to calculate the equivalent

Using formula for series

\dfrac{1}{k}=\dfrac{1}{k_{2}}+\dfrac{1}{k_{3}}

k=\dfrac{k_{2}k_{3}}{k_{2}+k_{3}}

Put the value into the formula

k=\dfrac{30\times15}{30+15}

k=10\ N/m

k and k_{4} is in parallel

We need to calculate the k'

Using formula for parallel

k'=k+k_{4}

Put the value into the formula

k'=10+20

k'=30\ N/m

k_{1},k' and k_{5} is in series

We need to calculate the equivalent stiffness of the spring

Using formula for series

k_{eq}=\dfrac{1}{k_{1}}+\dfrac{1}{k'}+\dfrac{1}{k_{5}}

Put the value into the formula

k_{eq}=\dfrac{1}{20}+\dfrac{1}{30}+\dfrac{1}{35}

k_{eq}=8.93\ N/m

Hence, The equivalent stiffness of the string is 8.93 N/m.

A third baseman makes a throw to first base 40.5 m away. The ball leaves his hand with a speed of 30.0 m/s at a height of 1.4 m
Ugo [173]

Answer:

When the ball goes to first base it will be 4.23 m high.

Explanation:

Horizontal velocity = 30 cos17.3 = 28.64 m/s

   Horizontal displacement = 40.5 m

   Time  

         t=\frac{40.5}{28.64}=1.41s          

   Time to reach the goal posts 40.5 m away = 1.41 seconds

Vertical velocity = 30 sin17.3 = 8.92 m/s

    Time to reach the goal posts 40.5 m away = 1.41 seconds

    Acceleration = -9.81m/s²

    Substituting in s = ut + 0.5at²

             s = 8.92 x 1.41 - 0.5 x 9.81 x 1.41²= 2.83 m

    Height of throw = 1.4 m

    Height traveled by ball = 2.83 m

    Total height = 2.83 + 1.4 = 4.23 m

    When the ball goes to first base it will be 4.23 m high.
