Answer:

Mid-Ocean Ridges

Explanation:

The mid-ocean ridges is an underwater mountain system formed by diverging oceanic plates.

  • This mid - ocean ridge is one of the prominent land mass on the earth surface.
  • At a diverging center, two tectonic plates are pulling apart from one another.
  • This creates a space which allows for magma to rise up.
  • The magma then crystallize to form an extensive ridge network known as the mid - oceanic ridge.
  • The continental expression of the ridge can only be found in Iceland

What is the refractive index of air if light travels through it at 3.0 108 m/s?
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

n = c/v = (3.00 x 108 m/s)/(2.76 x 108 m/s) = 1.09. This does not equal any of the indices of refraction listed in the table.

A 5 meter long ladder leans against a wall. The bottom of the ladder slides away from the wall at the constant rate of 1 3 m/s.
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:9.75 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Length of ladder (L)=5 m

Foot the ladder is moving away with speed of \frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=13 m/s

From diagram

x^2+y^2=L^2------1

at x=3

y^2=25-9=16

y=4 m

Now differentiating equation 1 w.r.t time

2x\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}+2y\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}=0

x\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=-y\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}

3\times 13=-4\times \frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}

\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}=-\frac{3\times 13}{4}=-9.75 m/s

negative indicates distance is decreasing with time

A rope is shaken and produces 2 waves each second. Calculate the time period of the rope waves.
motikmotik

Answer:

0.5 s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Number of circle (n) = 2

Time (t) = 1 s

Period =?

Period of a wave is simply defined as the time taken to make one complete oscillation. Mathematically, it can be expressed as:

T = t / n

Whereb

T => is the period

t => is the space time

n => is the number of circle or oscillation.

With the above formula, we can obtain the period of the wave as follow:

Number of circle (n) = 2

Time (t) = 1 s

Period =?

T = t / n

T = 1 / 2

T = 0.5 s

Thus, the period of the wave is 0.5 s
