Earthquakes and volcanoes occur along the edges of the tectonic plates. Scientists have developed a theory that explains how these giant plates move, thereby creating, destroying, and re-forming continents and oceans over long periods of time. This theory is called the theory of plate tectonics.

Answer: plate tectonics

Explanation: plate tectonics move constantly movement in narrow zones along plate boundaries causes earthquakes and plate tectonics come together and create pressure upon the magma deposit underground forcing it up into a volcanic eruption

The magnetic field of Earth is caused by currents of electricity that flow in the molten core. ... The currents flow in the outer core, and the lines of force shown in yellow, travel outwards through the rest of the earth's interior. If the earth rotated faster, it would have a stronger magnetic field.

A gasoline tank has the shape of an inverted right circular cone with base radius 4 meters and height 5 meters. Gasoline is bein
RSB [31]

Answer:

h'=0.25m/s

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we need to start by drawing a diagram of the given situation. (See attached image).

So, the problem talks about an inverted circular cone with a given height and radius. The problem also tells us that water is being pumped into the tank at a rate of 8m^{3}/s. As you  may see, the problem is talking about a rate of volume over time. So we need to relate the volume, with the height of the cone with its radius. This relation is found on the volume of a cone formula:

V_{cone}=\frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2}h

notie the volume formula has two unknowns or variables, so we need to relate the radius with the height with an equation we can use to rewrite our volume formula in terms of either the radius or the height. Since in this case the problem wants us to find the rate of change over time of the height of the gasoline tank, we will need to rewrite our formula in terms of the height h.

If we take a look at a cross section of the cone, we can see that we can use similar triangles to find the equation we are looking for. When using similar triangles we get:

\frac {r}{h}=\frac{4}{5}

When solving for r, we get:

r=\frac{4}{5}h

so we can substitute this into our volume of a cone formula:

V_{cone}=\frac{1}{3} \pi (\frac{4}{5}h)^{2}h

which simplifies to:

V_{cone}=\frac{1}{3} \pi (\frac{16}{25}h^{2})h

V_{cone}=\frac{16}{75} \pi h^{3}

So now we can proceed and find the partial derivative over time of each of the sides of the equation, so we get:

\frac{dV}{dt}= \frac{16}{75} \pi (3)h^{2} \frac{dh}{dt}

Which simplifies to:

\frac{dV}{dt}= \frac{16}{25} \pi h^{2} \frac{dh}{dt}

So now I can solve the equation for dh/dt (the rate of height over time, the velocity at which height is increasing)

So we get:

\frac{dh}{dt}= \frac{(dV/dt)(25)}{16 \pi h^{2}}

Now we can substitute the provided values into our equation. So we get:

\frac{dh}{dt}= \frac{(8m^{3}/s)(25)}{16 \pi (4m)^{2}}

so:

\frac{dh}{dt}=0.25m/s

Consider an electron with charge −e and mass m orbiting in a circle around a hydrogen nucleus (a single proton) with charge +e.
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

v=\sqrt{k\frac{e^2}{m_e r}}, 2.18\cdot 10^6 m/s

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electromagnetic force between the electron and the proton in the nucleus is equal to the centripetal force:

k\frac{(e)(e)}{r^2}=m_e \frac{v^2}{r}

where

k is the Coulomb constant

e is the magnitude of the charge of the electron

e is the magnitude of the charge of the proton in the nucleus

r is the distance between the electron and the nucleus

v is the speed of the electron

m_e is the mass of the electron

Solving for v, we find

v=\sqrt{k\frac{e^2}{m_e r}}

Inside an atom of hydrogen, the distance between the electron and the nucleus is approximately

r=5.3\cdot 10^{-11}m

while the electron mass is

m_e = 9.11\cdot 10^{-31}kg

and the charge is

e=1.6\cdot 10^{-19} C

Substituting into the formula, we find

v=\sqrt{(9\cdot 10^9 m/s) \frac{(1.6\cdot 10^{-19} C)^2}{(9.11\cdot 10^{-31} kg)(5.3\cdot 10^{-11} m)}}=2.18\cdot 10^6 m/s
