Convection Currents

Explanation:

Convection currents in the mantle fuels the process of sea floor spreading. The sea floor is made up of oceanic crust that rides on the fluid asthenosphere.

  • The internal heat engine furnishes all the process that occurs within the earth's interior.
  • Heat from radioactivity, accretion when the earth was formed and friction provides a source that keeps the region of the asthenosphere molten.
  • In convection hot fluids are buoyant and light making them rise up.
  • The denser and cold layer on top is the lithosphere which sinks into the hot mantle.
  • This exchange of materials moves the sea floor above.

What is the volume of water in 150ml of the 35% w/w of sucrose solution with a specific gravity of 1.115?
pentagon [3]

Answer:108.71 mL

Explanation:

Given

Volume of sample V=150 mL

concentration of sucrose solution 35 % w/w i.e. In  100 gm of sample 35 gm is sucrose

specific gravity =1.115

Density of solution \rho _s=1.115\times density\ of\ water

Thus

\rho _s=1.15\times 1 gm/mL=1.115\ gm/mL

mass of sample M=1.115\times 150=167.25\ gm

mass of sucrose m_s=0.35\times 167.25=58.53\ gm

mass of Water m_w=108.71 gm

Volume of water =108.71\times 1=108.781 mL

What is a lunar eclipse?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]
Moon eclipse is when the moon interposes between the sun and behind the Earth. The moon passes behind the Earth into its umbra and not viceversa! This is possible when the three of them are ALIGNED (in syzygy). In Romania, there was such eclipse that could be seen at an October night last year.

A square piece of tin has 12 inches on a side. An open box is formed by cutting out equal square pieces at the corners and bendi
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given a square Piece whose side is 12 inches

Now square pieces are cut from each corner to make it a open box

Suppose x is the length of square piece at each corner

then

base square has a length of 12-2x

Dimension of new box is (12-2x)\times (12-2x)\times x

Volume V=(12-2x)\times (12-2x)\times x

V=\left ( 12-2x\right )^2\cdot x

For maximum volume differentiate with respect to x we get

\Rightarrow\frac{\mathrm{d} V}{\mathrm{d} x}=2\times \left ( 12-2x\right )\times \left ( -2\right )\cdot x+\left ( 12-2x\right )^2=0

we get x=6 and 4 but at x=6 volume becomes zero therefore x=4 is valid

V=\left ( 12-2\cdot 4\right )^2\cdot 4

V=4^3

V=64\ in.^3
