What evidence did wegener have to support his theory of plate tectonics?

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Wegener first thought of this idea by noticing that the different large landmasses of the Earth almost fit together like a jigsaw puzzle. The continental shelf of the Americas fits closely to Africa and Europe, and other continents showed the same trend. Wegner also analyzed both sides of the Atlantic Ocean for rock type, geological structures and fossils and noticed that there was a significant similarity between matching sides of the continents, especially in fossil plants.

Explain any two areas affected by migration

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

<h2>Migration is affected by various factors like age, sex, marital status, education, occupation, employment etc. Age and sex are main demographic factors that affect the migration. Men, generally, migrate to other places quite often though there are more women who migrate to husbands' places after marriage.</h2>

What is the volume of an object that has a density of 65g/cm3 and a mass of 130g.

lora16 [44]

Density ρ is mass m per unit volume v, or

ρ = m / v

Solving for v gives

v = m / ρ

So the given object has a volume of

v = (130 g) / (65 g/cm³) = 2 cm³

Assume the motions and currents mentioned are along the x axis and fields are in the y direction. (a) does an electric field exe

matrenka [14]

(a) does an electric field exert a force on a stationary charged object?
Yes. The force exerted by an electric field of intensity E on an object with charge q is
 $F=qE$
As we can see, it doesn't depend on the speed of the object, so this force acts also when the object is stationary.

(b) does a magnetic field do so?
No. In fact, the magnetic force exerted by a magnetic field of intensity B on an object with charge q and speed v is
 $F=qvB \sin \theta$
where $\theta$ is the angle between the direction of v and B.
As we can see, the value of the force F depends on the value of the speed v: if the object is stationary, then v=0, and so the force is zero as well.

(c) does an electric field exert a force on a moving charged object?
Yes, The intensity of the electric force is still
 $F=qE$
as stated in point (a), and since it does not depend on the speed of the charge, the electric force is still present.

(d) does a magnetic field do so?
Yes. As we said in point b, the magnetic force is
$F=qvB \sin \theta$
And now the object is moving with a certain speed v, so the magnetic force F this time is different from zero.

(e) does an electric field exert a force on a straight current-carrying wire?
Yes. A current in a wire consists of many charges traveling through the wire, and since the electric field always exerts a force on a charge, then the electric field exerts a force on the charges traveling through the wire.

(f) does a magnetic field do so?
Yes. The current in the wire consists of charges that are moving with a certain speed v, and we said that a magnetic field always exerts a force on a moving charge, so the magnetic field is exerting a magnetic force on the charges that are traveling through the wire.

(g) does an electric field exert a force on a beam of moving electrons?
Yes. Electrons have an electric charge, and we said that the force exerted by an electric field is
 $F=qE$
So, an electric field always exerts a force on an electric charge, therefore on an electron beam as well.

(h) does a magnetic field do so?
Yes, because the electrons in the beam are moving with a certain speed v, so the magnetic force
 $F=qvB \sin \theta$
is different from zero because v is different from zero.
