Answer:
Continental drift describes one of the earliest ways geologists thought continents moved over time. Today, the theory of continental drift has been replaced by the science of plate tectonics.
The theory of continental drift is most associated with the scientist Alfred Wegener. In the early 20th century, Wegener published a paper explaining his theory that the continental landmasses were “drifting” across the Earth, sometimes plowing through oceans and into each other. He called this movement continental drift.
Answer:
15009
Explanation:
PE = mgh
PE = 61.2(9.81)(10 * 2.50)
PE = 15009.3
Answer:
41.74 m/s
Explanation:
The energy used to draw the bowstring = the kinetic energy of the arrow.
Fd = 1/2mv²................................ Equation 1
Where F = force, d = distance move string, m = mass of the arrow, v = speed of the arrow.
make v the subject of the equation
v = √(2Fd/m)...................... Equation 2
Given: F = 201 N, m = 0.3 kg, d = 1.3 m.
Substitute into equation 2
v = √(2×201×1.3/0.3)
v = √(1742)
v = 41.74 m/s.
Hence the arrow leave the bow with a speed of 41.74 m/s
Answer:
65.87 s
Explanation:
For the first time,
Applying
v² = u²+2as.............. Equation 1
Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, a = acceleration, s = distance
From the question,
Given: u = 0 m/s (from rest), a = 1.99 m/s², s = 60 m
Substitute these values into equation 1
v² = 0²+2(1.99)(60)
v² = 238.8
v = √238.8
v = 15.45 m/s
Therefore, time taken for the first 60 m is
t = (v-u)/a............ Equation 2
t = (15.45-0)/1.99
t = 7.77 s
For the final 40 meter,
t = (v-u)/a
Given: v = 0 m/s(decelerates), u = 15.45 m/s, a = -0.266 m/s²
Substitute into the equation above
t = (0-15.45)/-0.266
t = 58.1 seconds
Hence total time taken to cover the distance
T = 7.77+58.1
T = 65.87 s
