Answer:

Plate boundaries are the edges where two plates meet. Most geologic activities, including volcanoes, earthquakes, and mountain building, take place at plate boundaries

A stone is thrown vertically into the air at an initial velocity of 96 ft/s. On Mars, the height s (in feet) of the stone above

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

240 ft

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity = 96 ft/s

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration = 12 m/s² on Mars 32 ft/s² on Earth negative due to upward direction

Mars

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=96\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times -12\times t^2\\\Rightarrow s=96t-6t^2\ ft$

Earth

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=96\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times -32\times t^2\\\Rightarrow s=96t-16t^2\ ft$

Differentiating the first equation with respect to time we get

$\frac{ds}{dt}=96-12t$

Equating with zero

$0=96-12t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{96}{12}=8\ s$

Differentiating the second equation with respect to time we get

$\frac{ds}{dt}=96-32t$

Equating with zero

$0=96-32t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{96}{32}=3\ s$

Applying the time taken to the above equations, we get

$s=96t-6t^2\ ft\\\Rightarrow s=96\times 8-6\times 8^2\\\Rightarrow s=384$

$s=96t-16t^2\\\Rightarrow s=96\times 3-16\times 3^2\\\Rightarrow s=144$

Difference in height = 384-144 = 240 ft

The stone will travel 240 ft higher on Mars

Nonrenewable resources are natural resources that are limited in supply and cannot be replaced as quickly as they are used up.

zysi [14]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Nonrenewable resources ARE limited in supply. They don't get replaced at the speed they get made. For example: we pump crude oil from the ground at a rate that makes it impossible for crude oil to be replaced. Crude oil takes millions of years to produce

A large refrigerator (mass 80kg) sits at rest inside a house. The homeowner wants to move the refrigerator across the room, so s

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

400 N

Explanation:

By the law of friction,

$F=\mu R$

$F$ is the maximum frictional force, $\mu$ is the coefficient of friction and $R$ is the reaction on the refrigerator. On a horizontal surface, the reaction is equal to the weight of the refrigerator.

$R=mg$

$F=\mu mg$

While not moving, the fricition on the refrigerator is static friction. So, $\mu=0.65$

$F=0.65 \times80\times9.8=509.6 \text{ N}$

This is the maximum frictional force and is more than the applied horizontal force of 400 N. Frictional force cannot be more than the applied force, else it would actually pull the refrigerator backwards (a strange thing, if it were to happen). It is equal to the extent of the applied force because the applied force is not enough to overcome the maximum.

Hence the frictional force is 400 N.

PS: Note that we do not use the coefficient of kinetic friction because applied force could not overcome the static friction.
