Hello There!

The mantle is the layer located directly under the sima. It is the largest layer of the Earth, 1800 miles thick. The mantle is composed of very hot, dense rock. This layer of rock even flows like asphalt under a heavy weight. This flow is due to great temperature differences from the bottom to the top of the mantle. The movement of the mantle is the reason that the plates of the Earth move! The temperature of the mantle varies from 1600 degrees Fahrenheit at the top to about 4000 degrees Fahrenheit near the bottom!

Hope This helped!

A flywheel with radius of 0.300 m starts from rest and accelerates with a constant angular acceleration of 0.400 rad/s2.For a po
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

0.12\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

The radius of a flywheel, r = 0.3 m

Angular acceleration of a flywheel, \alpha =0.4\ rad/s^2

We need to find the magnitude of the tangential acceleration after 2.00 s of acceleration.

The relation between the tangential and angular acceleration is given by :

a_t=r\alpha \\\\a_t=0.3\times 0.4\\\\a_t=0.12\ m/s^2

So, the required magnitude of tangential acceleration is 0.12\ m/s^2.

astraxan [27]

Answer: True

Explanation: Following are the properties that are used to identify minerals:

(1) Color

(2) Hardness

(3) Magnetism : It is the property of mineral to attract or repel with other magnetic materials.

(4) Luster : It is the property that shows the surface is reflecting light or not.

(5) Reactivity: Reactivity is also responsible to identify mineral. How the mineral is reacting with acids, bases etc helps to identify type of minerals.

State guy lussac law
tatuchka [14]

<span>The combined gas law has no official founder; it is simply the incorporation of the three laws that was discovered. The combined gas law is a gas law that combines Gay-Lussac’s Law, Boyle’s Law and Charle’s Law.  Boyle’s law states that pressure is inversely proportional with volume at constant temperature. Charle’s law states that volume is directly proportional with temperature at constant pressure. And Gay-Lussac’s law shows that pressure is directly proportional with temperature at constant volume. The combination of these laws known now as combined gas law gives the ratio between the product of pressure-volume and the temperature of the system is constant. Which gives PV/T=k(constant). When comparing a substance under different conditions, the combined gas law becomes P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2.</span>

A highly volatile substance has an initial mass of 1200 g and its mass is reduced by 12% each second.
Softa [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) 1.00 - 0.12 = 0.88

m = 1200(0.88)^t

b) t = ln(m/1200) / ln(0.88)

c) m = 1200(0.88)^10 = 334.20 g

d) t = ln(10/1200) / ln(0.88) = 37.451... = 37 s

e) t = ln(1/1200) / ln(0.88) = 55.463... = 55 s
