Answer: 500 s
Explanation:
Speed
is defined as a relation between the distance
and time
:

Where:
is the speed of light in vacuum
is the distance between the Earth and Sun
is the time it takes to the light to travel the distance
Isolating
:


Finally:

<span>Given:
3,500 kilometers
Find:</span>
Years for two continents to collide = ?
<span>Solution:
We know that </span>typical motions of one plate relative to another
are 1 centimeter per year.
So first, we convert 3,500 km to cm.<span>
</span><span>
</span>
The solution would be like this for this specific problem:
1 km = 100,000 cm
3,500 km x 100,000 = 350,000,000 cm
Since we know that 1 cm = 1 year, then that means
350,000,000 cm is equivalent to 350,000,000 years.
Therefore, it would take 350 million years for two continents
that are 3500 kilometers apart to collide.
<span>
To add, </span>a phenomenon of the plate tectonics of Earth that occurs at
convergent boundaries is called the continental collision.
Answer:
42244138.951 m
Explanation:
G = Gravitational constant = 6.667 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²
r = Radius of orbit from center of earth
M = Mass of Earth = 5.98 × 10²⁴ kg
m = Mass of Satellite
The satellite revolves around the Earth at a constant speed
Speed = Distance / Time
The distance is the perimeter of the orbit

The Centripetal force of the satellite is balanced by the universal gravitational force

The radius as measured from the center of the Earth) of the orbit of a geosynchronous satellite that circles the earth is 42244138.951 m
Answer:
a)
The direction will be negative direction.
b)
The direction will be positive direction.
Explanation:
Given that
q1 = +7.7 µC is at x1 = +3.1 cm
q2 = -19 µC is at x2 = +8.9 cm
We know that electric filed due to a charge given as



Now by putting the va;ues
a)




The net electric field


The direction will be negative direction.
As we know that electric filed line emerge from positive charge and concentrated at negative charge.
b)
Now
distance for charge 1 will become =5.5 - 3.1 = 2.4 cm
distance for charge 2 will become =8.9-5.5 = 3.4 cm




The net electric field


The direction will be positive direction.
