Answer:

Rays

Explanation:

The moon was formed about 4.5 billion years ago according to most accepted Giant-impact theory. The Lunar surface has shows the following surface features:

Mares-The dark areas of the moon are filled with lava. These smooth and large areas can be seen from the Earth as well. These are about 3 billion years old.

Crater- These are formed when meteoroid impacts the surface. A depression is formed. Thousands of depressions are present of moon's surface. Lundar surface is continuously bombarded by the small meteors. The largest crater is the Tycho crater.

Mountains and ranges- are the bumps on the surface of the moon. These were formed about 4 billion years ago.

Rills- the cracks present on the lunar surface due to motion of its surface.

Rays- these features were last to form. These are bright rays - streaks of debris which radiate out from large impact craters.

A 45.0-kg girl is standing on a 168-kg plank. The plank, originally at rest, is free to slide on a frozen lake, which is a flat,

muminat

Answer:

The speed of the plank relative to the ice is:

$v_{p}=-0.33\: m/s$

Explanation:

Here we can use momentum conservation. Do not forget it is relative to the ice.

$m_{g}v_{g}+m_{p}v_{p}=0$ (1)

Where:

m(g) is the mass of the girl
m(p) is the mass of the plank
v(g) is the speed of the girl
v(p) is the speed of the plank

Now, as we have relative velocities, we have:

$v_{g/b}=v_{g}-v_{p}=1.55 \: m/s$ (2)

v(g/b) is the speed of the girl relative to the plank

Solving the system of equations (1) and (2)

$45v_{g}+168v_{p}=0$

$v_{g}-v_{p}=1.55$

$v_{p}=-0.33\: m/s$

I hope it helps you!

What happens when a particle of matter meets its corresponding antiparticle of antimatter?

shutvik [7]

Answer:

The combined mass of the two particles is completely transformed into energy (photons). This process is called matter-antimatter annihilation.

Sound waves strike a glass and cause it to shatter.

1. Resonance. Mechanical waves act on or through a medium, these waves can often have frequencies that are synchronized in a way that makes them act on the matter in the medium more "aggressively."
