<span>When lava erupts from mid-ocean ridges, it cools rapidly into rock. As it does, it becomes magnetised permanently in the direction of the Earth's magnetic field.</span>

Answer:

When oceanic crust layer of earth pulls apart, magma erupts to the surface at the mid-ocean ridges and develops new layers of ocean floor.  

Magma contains ferromagnetic minerals. These minerals align themselves in the direction of earth’s magnetic field reversing its polarity every now and then. When this magma cools down, it freezes in this alignment. In this way first strip is developed.

Later when the earth magnetic field changes its polarity again, the next strip is formed but has opposite polarity to the first strip.

sergejj [24]

Answer:

-17.5 nC

Explanation:

charge A = -30 nC

charge B = -5 nC

After adding them it would be the average of the two charges because of the getting same voltage difference. so

c = (-30+(-5)) / 2 nC

c= -17.5 nC

answer is -17.5 nC

A 10.0 Ω lightbulb is connected to a 12.0 V battery. (a) What current flows through the bulb? (b) What is the power of the bulb?
andreev551 [17]

The current flowing through the bulb as well the power of the bulb are 1.2A and 14.4 Watts respectively.

<h3>What current flows through the bulb as well as the power of the bulb?</h3>

From ohm's law; V = I × R

Where V is the voltage, I is the current and R is the resistance.

Also, Power is expressed as; P = V × I

Where V is voltage and I is current.

Given that;

  • Resistance R = 10.0 ohms
  • Voltage V = 12.0V
  • Current I = ?
  • Power P = ?

First, we determine the current flow through the bulb.

V = I × R

12.0V = I × 10.0 ohms

I = 12.0 ÷ 10.0

I = 1.2A

Next, we determine the power of the bulb.

P = V × I

P = 12.0V × 1.2A

P = 14.4 Watts

Therefore, the current flowing through the bulb as well the power of the bulb are 1.2A and 14.4 Watts respectively.

You are asked to burn gas using a Bunsen burner in order to boil water. Which of the following has no mass?
trapecia [35]

-- There is nothing on the list of choices that you provided that has no mass.

-- There are no "things" that have no mass.  Every sample of a liquid, a gas,
or a solid has mass, even if it's only an atom or two. 

I think the only possible items you could name that have no mass would be
spiritual, conceptual, or sensory ones, like maybe ...

-- idea
-- conviction
-- belief
-- concept
-- image
-- sound
-- illusion
-- impression
-- agreement
-- inclination
-- tendency
-- sparkle
-- tingle
-- pain

Things like that.
