That gravitational pull had the structure fossilized out and can’t hold you

Answer:

Since there is a gravitational pull, you wouldn't reach the other side. You'd probably be floating in the center of the earth.

Microwave ovens emit microwave energy with a wavelength of 12.2 cm. What is the energy of exactly one photon of this microwave r

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

$1.63\cdot 10^{-24} J$

Explanation:

The energy of a photon is given by:

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}$

where

h is the Planck constant

c is the speed of light

$\lambda$ is the wavelength of the photon

In this problem, we have a microwave photon with wavelength

$\lambda=12.2 cm=0.122 m$

Substituting into the equation, we find its energy:

$E=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34} Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{0.122 m}=1.63\cdot 10^{-24} J$

(a) what is the system of interest if the acceleration of the child in the wagon is to be calculated? (select all that apply.)

Leno4ka [110]

since child is moving along with the wagon and we need to find the acceleration of child inside that wagon then in this case the system of interest must be child + wagon

System of interest will be the system that is used to find the force or acceleration using Newton's law

Here we have to assume that system on which if we will calculate the forces then the net value of force on that system will help to calculate the unknown quantities

So here our system will be boy + wagon

Aristotle said that a moving earthly or `mundane' object with nothing pushing or pulling on it will always A slow down and stop.

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

A slow down and stop

Explanation:

When there is no force acting on something it automatically begins to slow down and then stops.Essentially, Aristotle's perspective of motion is that "it requires a force to move an object in an unnatural" way— or, plainly, that "movement involves strength." Indeed, if you propel a book, it keeps moving. Once you stop trying to push, it comes to a stop.

Which of the following concepts best explains why a mass of low-density material in the mantle rises?Multiple Choice Strain Buoy

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

Bouyancy

Explanation:

Bouyancy occurs when the upthrust exerted on an object is equal to the weight of object displaced. It is mostly applicable to low density objects for example balloon. When balloon is displaced in water, it floats. This is due to the effect of the upthrust acting on the balloon which allows the balloon to float and which is opposite the weight.

Note that the weight acts downwards the object while the upthrust always acts opposite (upward)
