The answer is C. Acceleration is nonzero, but it’s velocity is zero
Before comparing and contrasting these layers of Earth, we first define what lithosphere and asthenosphere are.
Lithosphere primarily consists of the outermost layers of the Earth, which are the crust and the uppermost portion of the mantle. Simply, the ground you stepped on is part of earth's lithosphere. On the other hand, asthenosphere comprises of hot and partially molten rock just located at the upper portion of the mantle but just below the lithosphere. Both have similarities and differences, which are as follows:
SIMILARITIES:
- Both are the passageways of earthquakes P-waves (Primary waves) just before it reaches the earth's surface.
- Both are made of the same material (Silicon oxide rocks, which are rich in iron and magnesium)
DIFFERENCES:
- Rocks in lithosphere can bend (it deforms, resulting in fault formations), however, rocks in the asthenosphere, not only bend but also flow (plastic in nature).
- Lithosphere has relatively low temperatures compared to asthenosphere.
- Due to its depth, pressure against rocks in asthenosphere is comparatively higher compared to lithosphere.
Answer:
Cart B has a smaller mass
Explanation:
I may be wrong but if mass is decreased then acceleration increases, and if velocity increases then acceleration increases so my logic is that if mass decreases then velocity increases.
Float. This is because water has a density of 1 g/ml, so anything less than this will float.
If two different substances, with the same mass (1 gram) absorb the same amount of energy "the temperature of the substance with the lower specific heat will increase more than the one with a higher specific heat".
Option B
<u>Explanation:</u>
The thermodynamic function that specifies the amount of heat needed by one degree of temperature for a single unit of mass of a material to be elevated is understood as "Specific heat". Depending on the extent to which they absorb heat, various levels of specific heat values are seen for the materials.
The heat transferred relies on three factors: temperature change, weight of the device, material change and stage of the material. The average temperature of the molecules increases as the material heats up, so when they collide they are more likely to contribute enough energy to cause rotation and vibration to happen as the energy moves to a higher state.
