What latitudes are most likely to see glaciers??  
olga55 [171]

Answer : Option D) 90°N and 90°S

Explanation : The latitudes which are given in the options are the angle to be measured in the direction of north and south respectively taking equator as the central line.

When it is 90°N and 90°S it means it forms an right angle and faces towards north and south respectively with respect to the equator, so there are high chances of pointing towards the Arctic and Antarctic regions respectively; therefore giving greater probability of finding glaciers.

How does kinetic energy affect the stopping distance of a small vehicle compared to a large vehicle?
Vilka [71]
Well, I may not know the exact answer, but I can confirm because of mass. The more mass an object has, the less control you have on it, so it can't be stopped easily. Let's take a small rock and a boulder for example. When a small rock rolls on the ground, it can easily be stopped by your hand or foot. But when you have to deal with an enormous boulder, you can't easily stop it with one just person. You'll need more people. So the answer is because the smaller vehicle has a lesser mass than the larger vehicle. (if you are looking for the answer, just look at the end.

Describe the relationship between joules, meters, and newtons
Naily [24]
Newton is a unit of force. Joules is an amount of work which is equal to the force times distance, or newton meters. So the product of newtons and meters makes joules.

The tip of a nail exerts tremendous pressure when hit by a hammer because it exerts a large force over a small area. What force
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

Force, F = 2714.33 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Diameter of the circular tip, d = 1.2 mm = 0.0012 m

Radius, r = 0.0006 m

Pressure acting on the hammer, P=2.4\times 10^9\ N/m^2

Let F is the force exerted on a nail. It can be calculated using the definition of pressure exerted. Its formula is given by :

P=\dfrac{F}A}

F=P\times \pi r^2

F=2.4\times 10^9\ N/m^2 \times \pi (0.0006\ m)^2

F = 2714.33 N

So, the force exerted on a nail 2714.33 N. Hence, this is the required solution.
