Answer: The answer is D: 300,000km/s
Explanation:
Acceleration is found if we have the force and mass.
With the following equation: F = ma, we can find the missing values.
F = 25n
M = 0.5 kg
a = ?
a = f/m
a = 25/0.5
a = 50
a = 50 m/s
So, the acceleration is 50 m/s^2
Answer:
The mass of the object involved and the value of the gravitational acceleration
Explanation:
- Gravitational potential energy is defined as the energy possessed by an object in a gravitational field due to its position with respect to the ground:

where m is the mass of the object, g is the gravitational acceleration and h is the heigth of the object with respect to the ground.
- Elastic potential energy is defined as the energy possessed by an elastic object and it is given as:

where k is the spring constant of the elastic object, while x is the compression/stretching of the spring with respect to the equilibrium position.
As we can see from the equations, both types of energy depends on the relative position of the object/end of the spring with respect to a certain reference position (h in the first formula, x in the second formula), but gravitational potential energy also depends on m (the mass) and g (the gravitational acceleration) while the elastic energy does not.
Edit: You do mean Ridge?
Rocks near Mid-Ocean Ridge are younger than rocks near the trenches.
Seismic data shows oceanic crust is sinking into the mantle at the trenches.
Matching bands of magnetic rock are found on either side of the Ridge. Earth's magnetic fields change these bands over time.
