<h2>Answer:</h2>

There would be 2 layers: lithosphere and asthenosphere

Explanation:

They contradict each other because the lithosphere consists of the crust as well as the portion of the upper mantle, which acts as a brittle, rigid solid. the asthenosphere is a partially molten upper mantle material that acts plastically and can flow.

<h3>Or you can think of it as:</h3>

The lithosphere is the brittle crust and uppermost mantle. The asthenosphere is a solid but it can flow, like toothpaste. The lithosphere rests on the asthenosphere.

Two students stand poised to leap off a high dive structure into the swimming pool below. Student B is twice as massive as stude
iogann1982 [59]

Answer: option (D)

Explanation:

The potential energy of each of the students is given below as

P.E(student A) = mgh, where m = mass of student A, g is acceleration due to gravity and h = height of the high dive structure.

The mass of student B is twice as much as that of A, hence his mass is 2m and his potential energy is given below as

P.E ( student B) =2mgh = 2(mgh)

Recall that the relationship between potential energy and work done is that

Work done = - (change in potential)

For student A, work done = - mgh

For student B, work done = - 2mgh

From the equations above it can be seen that student B will do twice the work in getting to the high dive structure than student A hence validating option D.

A 13 kg rock is sitting on a cliff. If the rock has 3,500 joules of potential energy, what is the height of the cliff in meters?
Bezzdna [24]

<u>Answer:</u>

The height of the cliff in meters = 27.44

<u>Explanation:</u>

 The potential energy of a body is given by the expression, PE = mgh, where m is the mass of the body, g is the acceleration due to gravity value and h is the height of the body.

 Here we have mass of rock = 13 kg

                          Potential energy = 3500 J

                          Acceleration due to gravity  = 9.81m/s^2

                          Substituting   3500 = 13 * 9.81 * h

                                                       h = 27.44 meter

      The height of the cliff in meters = 27.44
