What is the equilibrium line of a glacier?

1 answer:

8 0

The equilibrium line separates the ablation zone and the accumulation zone; it is the altitude where the amount of new snow gained by accumulation is equal to the amount of ice lost through ablation. The upper part of a glacier, where accumulation exceeds ablation, is called the accumulation zone.

A box rests on the back of a truck. The coefficient of friction between the box and the surface is 0.32. (3 marks) a. When the t

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

Part a)

here friction force will accelerate the box in forward direction

Part b)

a = 3.14 m/s/s

Explanation:

Part a)

When truck accelerates forward direction then the box placed on the truck will also move with the truck in same direction

Here if they both moves together with same acceleration then the force on the box is due to friction force between the box and the surface of the truck

So here friction force will accelerate the box in forward direction

Part b)

The maximum value of friction force on the box is known as limiting friction

it is given by the formula

$F = \mu mg$

so we have

$F = ma = \mu mg$

now the acceleration is given as

$a = \mu g$

$a = (0.32)(9.8) = 3.14 m/s^2$

Compare the characteristics of 4d orbitals and 3d orbitals and compared the following sentences. Check all that apply

charle [14.2K]

Answer :

(b) 4d orbitals would be larger in size than 3d orbitals

(e) 4d orbitals would have more nodes than 3d orbitals

Explanation :

As we move away from one orbital to another, the distance between nucleus and orbital increases. So, 4d orbitals would be far to the nucleus than 3d orbitals.

Hence, 4d orbitals would be larger in size than 3d orbitals.

Number of nodes is any orbital is n - 1 where, n is principal quantum number.

So, number of orbital in 4d is 3.

And number of orbital in 3d is 2.

So, options (b) and (e) are correct.
