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

Physics
1 answer:
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.

Derive a relation between time period anf frequency of a wave
Elza [17]

Answer:

The relation between frequency and time period is given by:

f = 1/T

Explanation:

In a wave motion, the particle move about the mean position with the passage of time. The particles rise to reach the highest point which is crest, and similarly falls to reach the lowest point which is trough. The cycle keeps on repeating.

The time period of the wave can be defined as the time taken to complete one such cycle. Time period is given by:

T = 2π/ω

Frequency can be defined as the number of cycles completed in unit time, which can be taken as the inverse of time period. frequency is given by

f = ω/2π

or

f = 1/T

A stationary police car emits a sound of frequency 1240 HzHz that bounces off of a car on the highway and returns with a frequen
lara [203]

Answer:

frequency =  1475.45 Hz

Explanation:

given data

frequency f1 = 1215 Hz,

frequency f2 = 1265 Hz

police car moving vp = 25.0 m/s

solution

speed of sound u = 343 m / s

speed of the other car = v

when the police car is stationary

the frequency the other car receives is

f2 =  f1  ×  \dfrac{u+v}{u}      ................1

and

the frequency the police car receives is

 f2 =  f1  ×  \dfrac{u}{u-v}      ..................2

now from equation 1 and 2

\frac{f2}{f1} = \dfrac{u+v}{u-v}

 \frac{1275}{1240} = \frac{u+v}{u-v}

v =\frac{1275-1240}{1275+1240}\times 343  

v = 4.77 m/s

and

frequency the other car receives is  

f2 = f1 ×   \dfrac{u+v}{u-vp}       ......................3

and

the frequency the police car receives is

f2 = f1 ×  \dfrac{u+vp}{u - v}       .......................4

now we get

f2 = f1 ×  \dfrac{(u+v)(u + vp)}{(u-v)(u-vp)}      

f2 =    1240\times \frac{(343+4.77)(343+25)}{(343-4.77)(343-25)}        

f2 =  1475.45 Hz

If we compare the force of gravity too strong nuclear force we would conclude that
Yuri [45]
The force of gravity is much weaker than the strong nuclear force. But the strong nuclear force only acts over short distances, such as within the nuclues. The gravitational force can act over infinite distance.
