How do coal deposits found in the U.S. and Serbia help prove the theory of continental drift?

Physics

amid [387]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Wegner's hypothesis met with wide skepticism, but found support and development in ... theory because Wegener could not satisfactorily explain how the continents moved.

Explanation:

Some of his theory was proven wrong, but he was still correct about his hypothesis. The fossils were part of proof for the theory because some of the fossils were found on shore line. And, some of those animals couldn't swim. So, this is proof that some animals lived on the land. And over time the land drifted apart.

A soccer player applies a force of 48.4 N to a soccer ball while kicking it. If the ball has
AlekseyPX

Answer:

C. 110 m/s2

Explanation:

Force = Mass x Acceleration

Since we have the force and the mass, we can rearrange this equation to solve for acceleration by dividing both sides by mass:

Force/Mass = (Mass x Acceleration)/Mass

Acceleration = Force/Mass

Now we just have to plug in our values and calculate!

Acceleration = 48.4/0.44

Acceleration = 110m/s/s

It is option C. 110 m/s2

Hope this helped!

IRINA_888 [86]

Complete question :

NASA is concerned about the ability of a future lunar outpost to store the supplies necessary to support the astronauts the supply storage area of the lunar outpost where gravity is 1.63m/s/s can only support 1 x 10 over 5 N. What is the maximum WEIGHT of supplies, as measured on EARTH, NASA should plan on sending to the lunar outpost?

Answer:

601000 N

Explanation:

Given that :

Acceleration due to gravity at lunar outpost = 1.6m/s²

Supported Weight of supplies = 1 * 10^5 N

Acceleration due to gravity on the earth surface = 9.8m/s²

Maximum weight of supplies as measured on EARTH :

Ratio of earth gravity to lunar post gravity:

(Earth gravity / Lunar post gravity) ;

(9.8 / 1.63) = 6.01

Hence, maximum weight of supplies as measured on EARTH should be :

6.01 * (1 × 10^5)

6.01 × 10^5

= 601000 N

Does a light bulb with a greater wattage have a greater brightness
Tamiku [17]
Only within the same technology. / / / If both of the bulbs you're comparing are incandescent, or both fluorescent, or both CFL, or both LED, then the one that uses more power is brighter. But a CFL with the same brightness as an incandescent bulb uses less power, and an LED bulb with the same brightness as both of those uses less power than either of them.

A bowling ball that has a radius of 11.0 cm and a mass of 5.00 kg rolls without slipping on a level lane at 2.80 rad/s.
NemiM [27]

Answer:

\dfrac{K_t}{K_r}=\dfrac{5}{2}

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the bowling ball, m = 5 kg

Radius of the ball, r = 11 cm = 0.11 m

Angular velocity with which the ball rolls, \omega=2.8\ rad/s

To find,

The ratio of the translational kinetic energy to the rotational kinetic energy of the bowling ball.

Solution,

The translational kinetic energy of the ball is :

K_t=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

K_t=\dfrac{1}{2}m(r\omega)^2

K_t=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 5\times (0.11\times 2.8)^2

The rotational kinetic energy of the ball is :

K_r=\dfrac{1}{2}I \omega^2

K_r=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{2}{5}mr^2\times \omega^2

K_r=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{2}{5}\times 5\times (0.11)^2\times (2.8)^2

Ratio of translational to the rotational kinetic energy as :

\dfrac{K_t}{K_r}=\dfrac{5}{2}

So, the ratio of the translational kinetic energy to the rotational kinetic energy of the bowling ball is 5:2
