Question:
How do mountain glaciers and continental glaciers differ in terms of dimensions, thickness and patterns of movement?
Answer:
<span>
Continental glaciers are thicker, much more expansive sheets. Mountain glaciers flow downhill as a result of gravity acting on the mass of ice. Continental glaciers move in response to pressure from the weight of material in their thick midsections.

The work done to pull the sister back on the swing is equal to the increase in potential energy of the sister:
(1)
where m is the sister's mass, g is the gravitational acceleration and
is the increase in altitude of the sister with respect to its initial position.
By calling
the angle of the chain with respect to the vertical, the increase in altitude is given by
(2)
where L is the length of the chain.
Putting (2) inside (1), we find
from which we can find the mass of the sister:
Answer:
The one you have selected is correct. :)
Explanation:
Explanation:
Given Data
Total mass=93.5 kg
Rock mass=0.310 kg
Initially wagon speed=0.540 m/s
rock speed=16.5 m/s
To Find
The speed of the wagon
Solution
As the wagon rolls, momentum is given as
P=mv
where
m is mass
v is speed
put the values
P=93.5kg × 0.540 m/s
P =50.49 kg×m/s
Now we have to find the momentum of rock
momentum of rock = mv
momentum of rock = (0.310kg)×(16.5 m/s)
momentum of rock =5.115 kg×m/s
From the conservation of momentum we can find the wagons momentum So
wagon momentum=50.49 -5.115 = 45.375 kg×m/s
Speed of wagon = wagon momentum/(total mass-rock mass)
Speed of wagon=45.375/(93.5-0.310)
Speed of wagon= 0.487 m/s
Throwing rock backward,
momentum of wagon = 50.49+5.115 = 55.605 kg×m/s
Speed of wagon = wagon momentum/(total mass-rock mass)
speed of wagon = 55.605 kg×m/s/(93.5kg-0.310kg)
speed of wagon= 0.5967 m/s
