The ancient astronomers think areas of the moon called mares might be Seas.

Option D  

<u>Explanation</u>:

The surface area of Earth's moon is dark, large, and is basaltic plains which are formed by ancient volcanic eruptions. They were dubbed as Maria, "ancient astronomers" who misunderstood them as actual seas. They are less reflective than highlands. Due to their iron-rich composition, they tend to appear dark from the naked eye. The Maria cover approximately about 16% of surface mostly on side that is visible from Earth. The few Maria on side that is too far are much smaller and residing mostly in very large craters. The ancient astronomers mistook the surface area as look like actual seas.

What is the relationship between the electric force and each one of the charges?
Bess [88]

Explanation: Electrostatic force is directly related to the charge of each object. So if the charge of one object is doubled, then the force will become two times greater.

19. After a snowstorm, you put on your frictionless skis and tie a rope to the back of your friend’s truck. Your total mass is 7
Kisachek [45]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Total mass is 70 kg

The truck exerts a constant force of 20 N.

Then the net force is given by :

F = ma

a is acceleration of rider

a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{20}{70}\\\\a=\dfrac{2}{7}\ m/s^2

Initial velocity of rider is 0. So, using equation of kinematics to find the final velocity as :

v=u+at\\\\v=at\\\\v=\dfrac{2}{7}\times 15\\\\v=4.28\ m/s

Since, 1 m/s = 2.23 mph

4.28 m/s = 9.57 mph

So, the speed of the rider is 4.28 m/s or 9.57 mph.

40ml of Liquid A are poured into a beaker, and 40.0ml of Liquid B are poured into an identical beaker. Stirrers in each beaker a
lakkis [162]

Answer:

d

Explanation:

there is not enough information about the liquid to know the force required for each. ie. stirring a cup of water is different than stirring a cup of pudding.

The force pressing two stacked objects together is equal to the weight of the object on top. The friction between a piece of woo
34kurt

Answer: B. Concrete

Explanation:

Let N = reacting force pressing the bodies in context together (units in Newtons),

The question stated that the force pressing the two mounted/stacked objects together is equal to the weight of the object on top.

We need to start by finding the weight of the piece of wood.

friction is given by

f = μN

The value of f is 22.5,

and from the chart reference the coefficient of friction between wood and stone, μ is 0.30.

22.5 = 75. 0.30

Putting the values into the equation: 22.5 = 0.30N.

Divide both sides by 0.30 to find the value of N:

N= 22.5/0.3 = 75

Now that the piece of wood will be placed on another surface, its weight of 75 Newton is the force pressing the two bodies together.

To determine the new surface, you should find the new coefficient of friction by using the new value of the force of friction given 46.5:

46.5 = µ(75).

Divide both sides by 75 to isolate μ.

The refer chart also indicates that the coefficient of friction equals 0.62 between wood and concrete, so the new surface corresponding to 0.62 is the concrete, which is (B).

an object has a momentum of 250 kg m/s what would be the momentum of an object that has half of the mass and going at the same v
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

The momentum of the second object is 125 kg m/s

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is given by

p=mv

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its velocity

For the object in this problem,

p = 250 kg m/s

And its mass is m and its velocity is v.

The second object has a mass of m' = \frac{m}{2} and same velocity v, so its momentum is

p'=m'v = (\frac{m}{2})v=\frac{1}{2}(mv)=\frac{1}{2}p

So, the second object has a momentum that is half of the momentum of the first object, therefore it is:

p'=\frac{1}{2}(250)=125 kg m/s
