If the Earth's core cools down, then one of the first things that would happen is that plate tectonic activity would slow down. Over time, the Earth would then dry up into this ball of dry soil because the heat of the Earth's core drives water up to the surface. Since the crust would be void of majority of liquid, it would shrink by an unknown amount.

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

The explorer should travel to reach base camp to 5.02 Km at 4.28° south of due west.

Explanation:

Using trigonometric function like Sen(Ф), Cos(Ф) and Tan(Ф) we can get distance and direction that the explorer should travel to reach base camp. When we discompound the vector X = 7.8*Cos(50) = 5.01 Km y y = 7.8 * Sen (50) - 5.6 = 5.975 - 5.6 (Km) = 0.375 (Km) so that Tan (\alpha ) = \frac{0.375}{5.01} = 4.28; \alpha = Arctang (\frac{0.375}{5.01}) = 4.28 (degree) to get how far we use Pythagorean theorem so R^{2} = x^{2}+y^{2} so that R=\sqrt{0.375^{2}+5.01^{2} } =5.02 (Km)

You can use any coordinate system you like in order to solve a projectile motion problem. To demonstrate the truth of this state
posledela

Answer:

a)  y₂ = 49.1 m ,    t = 1.02 s , b)   y = 49.1 m , t= 1.02 s

Explanation:

a) We will solve this problem with the missile launch kinematic equations, to find the maximum height, at this point the vertical speed is zero

            v_{y}² = v_{oy}² - 2 g (y –yo)

The origin of the coordinate system is on the floor and the ball is thrown from a height

           y-yo = v_{oy}² /2 g
            y- 0 = 10.0²/2 9.8
            y - 0 = 5.10 m
            
The height from the ground is the height that rises from the reference system plus the depth of the ground from the reference system
             y₂ = 5.1 + 44
             y₂ = 49.1 m
Let's use the other equation to find the time
              [tex]v_{y} = v_{oy} - g t

              t = v_{oy} / g

              t = 10 / 9.8

              t = 1.02 s

b) the maximum height

            y- 44.0 = v_{y}² / 2 g

            y - 44.0 = 5.1

            y = 5.1 +44.0

            y = 49.1 m

The time is the same because it does not depend on the initial height

              t = 1.02 s

What is the force on a 1000kg elevator that is falling freely at 9.8 m/sec^2
Advocard [28]
From Newton's second law, we know F = ma, where a is the acceleration and m is the mass in kg.

F = 1000kg * 9.8m/s = 9800N

F = 9800 N

Hope this helps!
