We know that speed equals distance between time. Therefore to find the distance we have that d = V * t. Substituting the values d = (72 Km / h) * (1h / 3600s) * (4.0 s) = 0.08Km.Therefore during this inattentive period traveled a distance of 0.08Km
D. Advances in technology were needed to gather more evidence.
Explanation:
New technologies had to be developed to ascertain Wegener's claims.
The major flaw in Wegener's postulate was that the moving continents lacked a mechanism to drive them into motion.
His theory needed more scientific backing also.
- A major leap was made when new technologies used during the second world war was deployed to investigate the ocean floor.
- Sequences of magnetic anomalies were unraveled using equipment developed during the second world war
- This gave further proof to the idea of continental drift and it expanded the theory into a more broader and inclusive theory of plate tectonics.

<span>The maximum possible efficiency, i.e the efficiency of a Carnot engine , is give by the ratio of the absolute temperatures of hot and cold reservoir.
η_max = 1 - (T_c/T_h)
For this engine:
η_max = 1 - [ (20 +273)K/(600 + 273)K ] = 0.66 = 66%
The actual efficiency of the engine is 30%, i.e.
η = 0.3 ∙ 0.664 = 0.20 = 20 %
On the other hand thermal efficiency is defined as the ratio of work done to the amount of heat absorbed from hot reservoir:
η = W/Q_h
So the heat required from hot reservoir is:
Q_h = W/η = 1000J / 0.20 = 5000J</span>
Answer:
g = 8.61 m/s²
Explanation:
distance of the International Space Station form earth is 200 Km
mass of the object = 1 Kg
acceleration due to gravity on earth = 9.8 m/s²
mass of earth = 5.972 x 10²⁴ Kg
acceleration due to gravity = ?
r = 6400 + 200 = 6800 Km = 6.8 x 10⁶ n
using formula


g = 8.61 m/s²
