Answer: It would destroy the Earth's surface.
I remember reading this questions in What If? by Randall Munroe. Great book, I suggest you check it out. Anyway, the answer. The Earth is revolving as well as spinning on its axis at the same time. This basically means that thee atmosphere is also spinning at the same speed. But due to the frame of reference, we don't notice anything. If the Earth suddenly stops spinning, then the atmosphere, going according to the first law of motion will still be spinning at the same speed. This would produce supersonic winds at such a scale that it will be compared to an atomic explosion. Anything not in a nuclear bunker will probably be ripped apart by the force of the wind.
Answer:To establish the age of a rock or a fossil, researchers use some type of clock to determine the date it was formed. Geologists commonly use radiometric dating methods, based on the natural radioactive decay of certain elements such as potassium and carbon, as reliable clocks to date ancient events.
Explanation:
Answer:
The current through a branch is also called the branch current. The current supplied by the battery in a parallel circuit splits at one or more branch points. All of the current entering a branch point must exit again. This rule is known as Kirchhoff's current law
Explanation:
The distance from the sun to Neptune is about the same as the distance from Neptune to the next closest star, Proxima Centauri
Explanation:
a. The force acting down is gravity, on Earth gravity is 10 m/s^2. When the skydiver jump, the acceleration will start out as -10 m/s^2, but it will eventually equals the air resistance , which is called terminal velocity.
