Answer:

Crust sitting on top of molten rock of the mantle

Explanation:

Earth's crust is the geological name for what we usually call the <em>surface</em> of the planet, and it is immediately above the molten rock of the mantle, the next layer of the planet.

The crust happens to be fragmented in large pieces or tectonic plates, that can be seen as "drifting" on the mantle's molten rock, also known as magma.

In some areas tectonic plates are drifting away, allowing magma to reach the surface (volcanoes for example), or the seabed (forming mid-oceans crests).

In other areas tectonic plates are crashing each other, causing earthquakes, tidal waves, mountain formation and other relevant geological events.

How far did a frog jump if he travels at a rate of 2.1 m/s for 10 seconds?
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

21 m

Explanation:

The motion of the frog is a uniform motion (constant speed), therefore we can find the distance travelled by using

d=vt

where

d is the distance covered

v is the speed

t is the time

The frog in this problem has a speed of

v = 2.1 m/s

and therefore, after t = 10 s, the distance it covered is

d=(2.1)(10)=21 m

E<br> 3.6 What force is needed to give a mass of<br> 20 kg an acceleration of 5 m/s??
luda_lava [24]

Explanation:

  • Mass(m)= 20kg
  • Acceleration (a)= 5m/s²
  • Force(F)= ?

We know that,

  • F=ma
  • F=20×5
  • F=100N

Hence, the needed force is 100N.

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

B. 14.4 N

Rotational speed (Angular Velocity) = 2

The Radius of the circle = 1.2 m

Velocity = Angular velocity × radius = 2×1.2 = 2.4 m/s

Centripetal force= mv²/r = 3 × 2.4×2.4/1.2 = 3 × 2.4 × 2

= 14.4 N

Ann [662]

Answer:

   θ = 4.78º

with respect to the vertical or 4.78 to the east - north

Explanation:

This is a velocity compound exercise since it is a vector quantity.

The plane takes a direction, the air blows to the west and the result must be to the north, let's use the Pythagorean theorem to find the speed

                  v_fly² = v_nort² + v_air²

                  v_nort² = v_fly² + - v_air²

Let's use trigonometry to find the direction of the plane

        sin θ = v_air / v_fly

        θ = sin⁻¹ (v_air / v_fly)

         

let's calculate

        θ = sin⁻¹ (10/120)

         θ = 4.78º

with respect to the vertical or 4.78 to the north-east
