Explanation:
<h3>a) Mass of the continent</h3>
Density
is defined as a relation between mass
and volume
:
(1)
Where:
is the average density of the continent
is the mass of the continent
is the volume of the continent, which can be estimated is we assume it as a a slab of rock 5300 km on a side and 37 km deep:

Finding the mass:
(2)
(3)
(4) This is the mass of the continent
<h3>b) Kinetic energy of the continent</h3>
Kinetic energy
is given by the following equation:
(5)
Where:
is the mass of the continent
is the velocity of the continent
(6)
(7) This is the kinetic energy of the continent
<h3>c) Speed of the jogger</h3>
If we have a jogger with mass
and the same kinetic energy as that of the continent
, we can find its velocity by isolating
from (5):
(6)
Finally:
This is the speed of the jogger
Answer:
= 5/9
Explanation:
This is an exercise that we can solve using Archimedes' principle which states that the thrust is equal to the weight of the desalted liquid.
B = ρ_liquid g V_liquid
let's write the translational equilibrium condition
B - W = 0
let's use the definition of density
ρ_body = m / V_body
m = ρ_body V_body
W = ρ_body V_body g
we substitute
ρ_liquid g V_liquid = ρ_body g V_body
In the problem they indicate that the ratio of densities is 5/9, we write the volume of the bar
V = A h_bogy
Thus
we substitute
5/9 = 
Answer:
point c
Explanation:
the cart has accelerated and is at the lowest point on the path .
consider the acceleration due to gravity converting potential to kinetic energy
Answer:
The ratio is 9.95
Solution:
As per the question:
Amplitude, 
Wavelength, 
Now,
To calculate the ratio of the maximum particle speed to the speed of the wave:
For the maximum speed of the particle:

where
= angular speed of the particle
Thus

Now,
The wave speed is given by:

Now,
The ratio is given by:
