Answer:

Volcanoes and ridges

Explanation: As the bottom plate is heated up by the Earth's hot mantle, a material called magma forms. It rises. Over time magma erupts through the plates. Many such volcanoes are found on "the Pacific Ring of Fire."

An exoplanet with one half of Earth's mass and 50% of Earth's radius is discovered.

Georgia [21]

Answer:

The space cadet that weighs 800 N on Earth will weigh 1,600 N on the exoplanet

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass of the exoplanet = 1/2×The mass of the Earth, M = 1/2 × M

The radius of the exoplanet = 50% of the radius of the Earth = 1/2 × The Earth's radius, R = 50/100 × R = 1/2 × R

The weight of the cadet on Earth = 800 N

$The \ weight, W =G\dfrac{M \times m}{R^{2}} = 800 \ N$

Therefore, for the weight of the cadet on the exoplanet, W₁, we have;

$W_1 =G\dfrac{\dfrac{M}{2} \times m}{ \left ( \dfrac{R}{2} \right ) ^{2}} = G\dfrac{\dfrac{M}{2} \times m \times 4}{ R ^{2}} = 2 \times G \times \dfrac{M \times m}{R^{2}} = 2 \times 800 \, N = 1,600 \, N$

The weight of a space cadet on the exoplanet, that weighs 800 N on Earth = 1,600 N.

What is the kinetic energy in Joules of a 1,500kg car traveling at 75mph?What is the kinetic energy in Joules of a 1,500kg car t

Sergio039 [100]

Answer: 2812500 joules

Explanation:

Mass of car = 1500kg

Velocity of car = 75mph

Kinetic energy = ?

Recall that kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a moving object, and it depends on its mass M and velocity, V

Thus, Kinetic energy = 1/2 x mv^2

= 1/2 x 1000kg x (75mph)^2

= 0.5 x 1000kg x (75mph)^2

= 500 x 5625

= 2812500 joules

Thus, the car travels with a kinetic energy of 2812500 joules

A sound wave was determined to have a frequency of 0.3 Hz, speed of 150 cm/s, and amplitude of 2 cm. Find its wavelength.

fredd [130]

Answer:

5 m

Explanation:

From the question,

v = λf....................... Equation 1

Where v = speed of the sound wave, λ = wavelength of the sound wave, f = frequency of the sound wave.

make λ the subject of the equation

λ = v/f..................... Equation 2

Given: v = 150 cm/s = 1.5 m/s, f = 0.3 hz.

Substitute these values into equation 2

λ = 1.5/0.3

λ = 5 m.

Consider a father pushing a child on a playground merry-go-round. The system has a moment of inertia of 84.4 kg.m^2. The father

Sophie [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that:

the initial angular velocity $\omega_o = 0$

angular acceleration $\alpha$ = 4.44 rad/s²

Using the formula:

$\omega = \omega_o+ \alpha t$

Making t the subject of the formula:

$t= \dfrac{\omega- \omega_o}{ \alpha }$

where;

$\omega = 1.53 \ rad/s^2$

∴

$t= \dfrac{1.53-0}{4.44 }$

t = 0.345 s

Using the formula:

$\omega ^2 = \omega _o^2 + 2 \alpha \theta$

here;

$\theta$ = angular displacement

∴

$\theta = \dfrac{\omega^2 - \omega_o^2}{2 \alpha }$

$\theta = \dfrac{(1.53)^2 -0^2}{2 (4.44) }$

$\theta =0.264 \ rad$

Recall that:

2π rad = 1 revolution

Then;

0.264 rad = (x) revolution

$x = \dfrac{0.264 \times 1}{2 \pi}$

x = 0.042 revolutions

Here; force = 270 N

radius = 1.20 m

The torque = F * r

$\tau = 270 \times 1.20 \\ \\ \tau = 324 \ Nm$

However;

From the moment of inertia;

$Torque( \tau) = I \alpha \\ \\ Since( I \alpha) = 324 \ Nm. \\ \\ Then; \\ \\ \alpha= \dfrac{324}{I}$

given that;

I = 84.4 kg.m²

$\alpha= \dfrac{324}{84.4} \\ \\ \alpha=3.84 \ rad/s^2$

For re-tardation; $\alpha=-3.84 \ rad/s^2$

Using the equation

$t= \dfrac{\omega- \omega_o}{ \alpha }$

$t= \dfrac{0-1.53}{ -3.84 }$

$t= \dfrac{1.53}{ 3.84 }$

t = 0.398s

The required time it takes= 0.398s
