How do fossils provide evidence of continental drift?

Physics
1 answer:
Alex777 [14]3 years ago
8 0
C explanation: There are many examples of fossils found on separate continents and nowhere else, suggesting the continents were once joined. If Continental Drift had not occurred, the alternative explanations would be: They swam to the other continent/s in breeding pairs to establish a second population. ...

Each time the heart beats,what does it do to the blood
Tom [10]
Your blood runs through your blood stream, every vein in your body. without that heartbeat the blood would not make it to the required places it needs to run to and you will lose oxygen and parts of your body and organs will shut down.

Jane, looking for tarzan, is running at top speed (6.8 m/s) and grabs a vine hanging vertically from a tall tree in the jungle.
erica [24]
Jane's mechanical energy at any time is
E=U+K
where U=mgh is the potential energy, while K= \frac{1}{2} mv^2 is the kinetic energy.

Initially, Jane is on the ground, so the altitude is h=0 and the potential energy is zero: U=0. She's running with speed v, so she has kinetic energy only:
E=K= \frac{1}{2} mv^2
Then she grabs the vine, and when she reaches the maximum height h, her speed is zero: v=0, and so the kinetic energy becomes zero: K=0. So now her mechanical energy is just potential energy:
E=U=mgh

But E must be conserved, so the initial kinetic energy must be equal to the final potential energy:
\frac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh
from which we can find h, the maximum height Jane can reach:
h= \frac{v^2}{2g}= \frac{(6.8 m/s)^2}{2\cdot 9.81 m/s^2}=2.36 m

A superhero swings a magic hammer over her head in a horizontal plane. The end of the hammer moves around a circular path of rad
Korolek [52]

Answer:

9.21954 m/s

54 m/s²

Angle is zero

Explanation:

r = Radius of arm = 1.5 m

\omega = Angular velocity = 6 rad/s

The horizontal component of speed is given by

v_h=\omega r\\\Rightarrow v_h=6\times 1.5\\\Rightarrow v_h=9\ m/s

The vertical component of speed is given by

v_v=2\ m/s

The resultant of the two components will give us the velocity of hammer with respect to the ground

v=\sqrt{v_h^2+v_v^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{9^2+2^2}\\\Rightarrow v=9.21954\ m/s

The velocity of hammer relative to the ground is 9.21954 m/s

Acceleration in the vertical component is zero

Net acceleration is given by

a_n=a_h=\omega^2r\\\Rightarrow a_n=6^2\times 1.5\\\Rightarrow a_n=54\ m/s^2

Net acceleration is 54 m/s²

As the acceleration is towards the center the angle is zero.

What is the difference between “exercise” and “physical activity”?
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
Physical activity is movement that is carried out by the skeletal muscles that requires energy. In other words, any movement one does is actually physical activity. Exercise, however, is planned, structured, repetitive and intentional movement intended to improve or maintain physical fitness.
