Answer: 44% oxygen, 22% magnesium and 21% silicon.

Explanation:

Mantle covers vast majority of the earth's volume. Movement or convection in this layer is responsible for the seismic activity.The structure and composition of the mantle is either the result of geophysical investigation or rocks derived from mantle.

The constituents of mantle are 44% oxygen, 22% magnesium and 21% silicon. There is some amount of iron, aluminium, potassium and sodium in mantle.

I think the mantle is mostly made up of silicon. I am not sure of the answer.

Why isn't Coulomb's law valid for dielectric objects, even if they are spherically symmetrical?
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

Explanation:

The "traditional" form of Coulomb's law, explicitly the force between two point charges. To establish a similar relationship, you can use the integral form for a continuous charge distribution and calculate the field strength at a given point.

In the case of moving charges, we are in presence of a current, which generates magnetic effects that in turn exert force on moving charges, therefore, no longer can consider only the electrostatic force.

Answer:

a

The speed is   s =  5.857 m/s

b

The distance is  D = 22.4  \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The speed of the banana is  v =  16 \ m/s

   The distance from my  location is  d =  8.2  \ m  

     The time taken is  t = 1.4 \ s

The speed of the ice cream is

          s =  \frac{d}{t}

substituting values

        s =  \frac{8.4}{1.4}

        s =  5.857 m/s

The distance of separation between i and Valdimir is the same as the distance covered by the banana

   So  

          D =  v * t

substituting values

        D = 16 *  1.4

        D = 22.4  \  m

Stella [2.4K]
<span>the body is moving horizontally, it doesnt matter watever kind of horizontal forces are acting.
 Therefore the normal force is equal to the weight
 N=mg=4.2*9.8=41N
 Note: the other data in the problem have no relevance
 answer
</span> the normal force on the sled is 41N
