What is the heat source for rock formation​

Physics
1 answer:
Otrada [13]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

The heat source for rock formation

Primordial heat: Some heat accumulated during the earth's formation and it is still available to drive the internal heat Engine of the earth. Some of these heat are used to melt rocks and produce magma.

Radioactive sources: Radioactive elements within the earth also serves as heat source for rock formation. Their spontaneous decay produce heat which are sufficient enough to generate enough thermal energy to melt and produce rocks.

An 92-kg football player traveling 5.0m/s in stopped in 10s by a tackler. What is the original kinetic energy of the player? Exp
Artemon [7]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the football player, m = 92 kg

Velocity of player, v = 5 m/s

Time taken, t = 10 s

(1) We need to find the original kinetic energy of the player. It is given by :

k=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

k=\dfrac{1}{2}\times (92\ kg)\times (5\ m/s)^2

k = 1150  J

In two significant figure, k=1.2\times 10^3\ J

(2) We know that work done is equal to the change in kinetic energy. Work done per unit time is called power of the player. We need to find the average power required to stop him. So, his final velocity v = 0

i.e. P=\dfrac{W}{t}=\dfrac{\Delta K}{t}

P=\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2}\times (92\ kg)\times (5\ m/s)^2}{10\ s}

P = 115 watts

In two significant figures, P=1.2\times 10^2\ Watts

Hence, this is the required solution.

If 2 ma of current flow in your mp3 player, how long will it take for 1 c of charge to flow?
Mrrafil [7]

If 2 ma of current flow in your mp3 player, 8.3 mins or 500 sec will take for 1 c of charge to flow.

Electric Charge

Charged material experiences a force when it is exposed to an electromagnetic field due to the physical property of electric charge. You can have a positive or negative electric charge (commonly carried by protons and electrons respectively). Unlike charges attract one another while like charges repel one another. Neutral refers to an object that carries no net charge. Classical electrodynamics, the name given to an early understanding of how charged particles interact, is still accurate for issues that do not call for taking into account quantum phenomena.

The coulomb (C), which bears the name of French physicist Charles-Augustin de Coulomb, is the SI-derived unit of electric charge. The charge symbol, lowercase q, is frequently used.

Two rollerbladers face each other and stand at rest on a flat parking lot. tracey has a mass of 32 kg, and jonas has a mass of 4
galina1969 [7]
Momentum is a product of mass and the velocity of a body. The initial momentum is always equal to the final momentum during collisions between two bodies.
Therefore; M1U1 +M2U2 = M1V1+ M2V2, where m1 is the mass of tracey and m2 is the mass of jonas, while u is the initial velocity and v is the final velocity.
 (32 ×0)+ (45×0) = (32 × v1) + (45 × 0.50)
                       0 = 32V1 + 22.5
                     32 V1 = -22.5
                          V1 = - 0.703 ( negative indicates difference in direction)
There, Tracey's speed will be 0.703 m/s

Why is AU (astronomical unit) the unit of distance that we used instead of kilometers?
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

The solar system is enormous, and interstellar space is even bigger. One astronomical unit is equal to 150 million kilometers. This makes it much easier to count the distances if they're in counts of Astronomic Units instead of having to count everything in millions or billions of kilometers
