Listed below are geographic features of the terrestrial worlds. In each case, identify the geological process: impact cratering,

volcanism, erosion, or tectonics (where tectonics is any large-scale processes affecting the structure of the planetary crust), most responsible for the feature described. Match the geographic feature to the appropriate geologic process.

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

the correct match has been made which is as follows

(1.) Volcanism: big island of Hawaii, smooth surfaces of the lunar maria, Mars's Olympus Mons.

(2.) Impact cratering: old surface features of the lunar highlands.

(3.) Erosion: Earth's Grand Canyon.

(4.) Tectonics: current locations of Earth's continents, Mars's Valles Marineris, Mercury's many long, tall cliffs.

Correct.

All the four processes are interrelated, so although one may be most important to a particular feature, others often also play a role. For example, some erosion has occurred on the volcanic island of Hawaii, there are impact craters on the slopes of Olympus Mons, and volcanism and tectonics almost always go hand-in-hand.

A car is traveling at 96km/hr. what is the acceleration of a car traveling a distance of 100m and come to rest?​
8090 [49]

Answer:

Explanation:

v² = u² + 2as

v = 0

u = 96 / 3.6 = 26.7 m/s

0² = 26.7² + 2a100

a = -3.5555555... ≈ -3.6 m/s²

the negative sign indicated the acceleration vector opposes the (assumed positive) initial velocity vector direction.

In my trigonometry class, we were assigned a problem on Angular and Linear Velocity.
Rzqust [24]

1) 0.0011 rad/s

2) 7667 m/s

Explanation:

1)

The angular velocity of an object in circular motion is equal to the rate of change of its angular position. Mathematically:

\omega=\frac{\theta}{t}

where

\theta is the angular displacement of the object

t is the time elapsed

\omega is the angular velocity

In this problem, the Hubble telescope completes an entire orbit in 95 minutes. The angle covered in one entire orbit is

\theta=2\pi rad

And the time taken is

t=95 min \cdot 60 =5700 s

Therefore, the angular velocity of the telescope is

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{5700}=0.0011 rad/s

2)

For an object in circular motion, the relationship between angular velocity and linear velocity is given by the equation

v=\omega r

where

v is the linear velocity

\omega is the angular velocity

r is the radius of the circular orbit

In this problem:

\omega=0.0011 rad/s is the angular velocity of the Hubble telescope

The telescope is at an altitude of

h = 600 km

over the Earth's surface, which has a radius of

R = 6370 km

So the actual radius of the Hubble's orbit is

r=R+h=6370+600=6970 km = 6.97\cdot 10^6 m

Therefore, the linear velocity of the telescope is:

v=\omega r=(0.0011)(6.97\cdot 10^6)=7667 m/s

On Earth, a brick has a mass of 10 kg and a weight of 5 lbs. What predictions could we make about the mass and weight of the bri
belka [17]

Answer:

Mass remains constant but weight reduces

Explanation:

Mass is the amount of matter in an object so whether on moon or any other planet, it does not change despite the changes in acceleration.

Weight is a product of mass and acceleration due to gravity, expressed as W=mg where m is the mass, W is weight and g is acceleration. From the above formula, it is evident that when you decrease g, then W also decreases while m is constant. Similarly, when m is constant and g is increased then W also increases.

Therefore, for this case, since g decreases, the weight decreases but mass remains constant.
