How do we know what is inside of Earth ?

Physics
1 answer:
Maslowich2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Most of what we know about the interior of the Earth comes from the study of seismic waves from earthquakes. Seismic waves from large earthquakes pass throughout the Earth. These waves contain vital information about the internal structure of the Earth.

A coin is resting on the bottom of an empty container. The container is then fi lled to the brim three times, each time with a d
ahrayia [7]

when we placed in the container of real depth assuming = d

if the container filled with liquid A then its apparent depth d' = 7cm

so the refractive index nA = real depth / apparent depth

                                       = d/7cm = 0.1428d

if the container filled with liquid B then its apparent depth d' = 6cm

so the refractive index nB = real depth / apparent depth

                                       = d/6cm = 0.166d

if the container filled with liquid C then its apparent depth d' = 5cm

so the refractive index nC = real depth / apparent depth

                                       = d/5cm = 0.2d

Since the refractive index is inversely proportional to the apparent depth

then the refractive indices are nC > nB > nA

Determine the specific heat of a certain metal if a 450 gram sample of it loses 34 500 Joules of heat as its temperature starts
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

c = 0.4356 J/gK

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 450 grams

Initial temperature, T1 = 150°C

Final temperature, T2 = 53°C

Quantity of heat = 34500 Joules

To find the specific heat capacity of the metal;

Heat capacity is given by the formula;

Q = mcdt

Where;

Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.

m represents the mass of an object.

c represents the specific heat capacity of water.

dt represents the change in temperature.

dt = T2 - T1

dt = 53 - 150

dt = -97°C

Converting the temperature in Celsius to Kelvin, we have;

dt = 273 + (-97) = 176 Kelvin

Making c the subject of formula, we have;

c = \frac {Q}{mdt}

Substituting into the equation, we have;

c = \frac {34500}{450*176}

c = \frac {34500}{79200}

c = 0.4356 J/gK

A student pushed a box 32.0 m across a smooth, horizontal floor using a constant force of 124 N. If the force was applied for 8.
Brilliant_brown [7]

The power developed is 500 W ( to the nearest Watt)

Power(P) is the rate at which work is done. Work done (W) is the product of the force applied on the object and the displacement (s) made by the point of application of the force.

P = \frac{W}{t}

W= F*s

Therefore,

P=\frac{F*s}{t}

Substitute the given values of force , displacement and time

F = 124 N,s = 32.0 m,t = 8.0 s

P =\frac{W*s}{t} =\frac{124N*22.0s}{8.0s} =496 W

Thus the Power can be rounded off to the nearest value of 500 W

When you eat a candy bar, your body oxidizes glucose to get energy. where does this energy come from? kinetic energy of the gluc
babymother [125]
The correct answer is
<span>"chemical bonds within the glucose molecules "

The chemical bonds of the glucose molecules contain chemical energy, and when these bonds are broken by the processes acting inside the body, the energy of the bonds is released and it can be used by the body.
