What is the action force responsible for sea floor spread?

Chemistry
2 answers:
Alexxx [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: The motivating force for seafloor spreading ridges is tectonic plate slab pull at subduction zones, rather than magma pressure, although there is typically significant magma activity at spreading ridges. ... At a spreading center, basaltic magma rises up the fractures and cools on the ocean floor to form new seabed.

Answer:

Seafloor spreading helps explain continental drift in the theory of plate tectonics. When oceanic plates diverge, tensional stress causes fractures to occur in the lithosphere. The motivating force for seafloor spreading ridges is tectonic plate slab pull at subduction zones, rather than magma pressure

A 100-watt light bulb radiates energy at a rate of 100 J/s. (The watt, a unit of power or energy over time, is defined as 1 J/s.
Semmy [17]

Answer

2.7956 * 10^19 photons

Givens

  • Wavelength = λ = 525 * 10^-9 meters  [1 nmeter = 1*10^-9 meters]
  • c = 3 * 10^8 meters
  • E = ???
  • W = 100  watts
  • t = 1 second
  • h= plank's Constant = 6.26 * 10^-34 J*s

Formula

E = h * c / λ

W = E / t

Solution

E = 6.26 * 10^-34 j*s * 3 * 10^8 m/s /525 * 10^-9 (m)

The meters cancel out. So do the seconds. You are left with Joules as you should be.

E =  3.577 * 10^-18 Joules

What you have found is the energy of 1 photon.

Now you have to find the Joules from the watts.

W = E/t

100 * 1 second = 100 joules

1 photon contains 3.577 * 10 ^ - 18 Joules

x photon = 100 joules                        

1/x = 3.577 * 10^-18 / 100                          Cross multiply

100 = 3.577 * 10 ^ - 18 * x                         Divide both sides by 3.577 * 10 ^ - 18

100/3.577 * 10 ^ - 18 = 3.577 * 10 ^ - 18x / 3.577 * 10 ^ - 18

2.7956 * 10^19 photons = x

The yeast acted as a catalyst. Explain the purpose of a catalyst in a reaction
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

The catalyst speeds up the chemical reaction.

Explanation:

The process in which chemical reaction rate increases by addition of substance is termed as a catalyst. The chemical reaction happens faster when a catalyst is present because it gives an alternative reaction pathway with lower activation energy.

The catalyst usually forms a temporary intermediate that helps in regenerating the original catalyst in the cyclic process. Yeast when added in a mixture work as a catalyst and helps with chemical reaction.
