Answer:

Options (C) and (D)

Explanation:

The oceanic crust is usually about 5-10 km thick and is comprised of rocks that are basaltic in nature. These rocks are primarily made of minerals such as iron (Mg) and magnesium (Mg) and a comparatively lesser amount of silicate materials. Much of the oceanic rocks are destroyed due to the constant plate tectonic movement. It has been found that the oldest oceanic rocks found on the earth's crust is about 180 million years old only. The new oceanic crust often forms along the mid-oceanic ridge in a divergent type of plate motion, where new materials are added to the crust. Those rocks that are present along the mid-oceanic ridge are the younger rocks and those that are away are the oldest rocks. These oceanic crust are comprised of the volcanoes that form adjacent to the convergent plate boundary.

Thus, the correct answer is options (C) and (D).

How much energy is used when a 110kw appliance is used for 3 hours
Bogdan [553]
We could take the easy way out and just say

(110 kW) x (3 hours) = 330 kilowatt hours .

But that's cheap, and hardly worth even 5 points.
If we want to talk energy, let's use the actual scientific unit of energy.
________________________________________________

" 110 kw " means 110,000 watts = 110,000 joules/second .

(3 hours) x (3600 sec/hour) = 10,800 seconds.

(110,000 joules/second) x (10,800 seconds) = 1.188 x 10⁹ Joules

 That's

==>  1,188,000,000 joules

==>  1,188,000 kilojoules

==>  1,188 megajoules

==>  1.188 gigajoules

Atsa nawfulotta energy ! 
It goes back to that "110 kw appliance" that we started with. 
That's no common ordinary household appliance.  110 kw is something like
147 horsepower.  In order to bring 110 kw into your house, you'd need to
take 458 Amperes through the 240-volt line from the pole.  Most houses
are limited to 100 or 200 Amperes, tops.  And the TRANSFORMER on
the pole, that supplies the whole neighborhood, is probably a 50 kw unit.

If a 0.5 kg pair of running shoes would weigh 11.55 Newton’s on Jupiter, what is the strength of gravity there?
OverLord2011 [107]
The weight of an object is given by
F=mg
where m is the mass of the object, while g is the strength of the gravity (which corresponds to the gravitational acceleration of the planet).

In our problem, the shoes have a mass of m=0.5 kg, and their weight is F=11.55 N. So, we can re-arrange the previous formula to find the value of g:
g= \frac{F}{m}= \frac{11.55 N}{0.5 kg}=23.1 N kg^{-1}
and this is the strength of the gravity on Jupiter's surface.

The bus, at location A, is traveling at 30 m/s when it is shifted to neutral and allowed to
sertanlavr [38]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The velocity of the bus at B is v_B= 31.6\  m/s

Explanation:

Let's take  position B as base point .

From the diagram  height between point B and A ia mathematically evaluated as

        h_A  = 60 -55

      h_A  = 5 \ m

From the question we are told that

   The velocity at location A is  v_A = 30 m/s

       

     According the law of conservation of energy

          PE_A + KE_A = KE_B

Where PE_A is the potential energy at A which is mathematically represented as

          PE_A = mgh_A

KE_A is the kinetic energy energy at A which is mathematically represented as

            KE_A = \frac{1}{2} mv^2_A

KE_B is the  kinetic energy at A which is mathematically represented as

          KE_B = \frac{1}{2} mv_B^2

Where v_B is the velocity at location B

So

      mgh_A + \frac{1}{2} mv_A^2 = \frac{1}{2} mv_B^2

Making v_B the subject of the formula

       v_B=  \sqrt{\frac{gh_A + \frac{1}{2} v_A^2 }{0.5} }

Substituting values

       v_B=  \sqrt{\frac{(9.8 * 5) + \frac{1}{2} 30^2 }{0.5} }

        v_B= 31.6\  m/s
