Describe the formation of the land, the atmosphere, and the oceans of earth

Physics

Firlakuza [10]3 years ago

Land: Tectonic plate movement under the Earth can create landforms by pushing up mountains and hills. Erosion by water and wind can wear down land and create landforms like valleys and canyons. ... Landforms can exist under water in the form of mountain ranges and basins under the sea.

Atmosphere: (4.6 billion years ago)
As Earth cooled, an atmosphere formed mainly from gases spewed from volcanoes. It included hydrogen sulfide, methane, and ten to 200 times as much carbon dioxide as today's atmosphere. After about half a billion years, Earth's surface cooled and solidified enough for water to collect on it.

Ocean: After the Earth's surface had cooled to a temperature below the boiling point of water, rain began to fall—and continued to fall for centuries. As the water drained into the great hollows in the Earth's surface, the primeval ocean came into existence. The forces of gravity prevented the water from leaving the planet.

When air resistance equals the weight of an object, the object has reached
MissTica

Answer:

When air resistance equals the weight of an object, the object has reached free fall.

Explanation:

  • When an object has only force acting on it as gravity then, it experiences free fall.
  • During free fall all the forces except gravity is balanced by one another.
  • In the question, object's weight is balanced by air resistance so it is in the state of free fall.
  • At the null point of free fall, object experiences weightlessness i.e. it feels like object is not attracted by any force.

65. A length of wire is bent into a closed loop and a magnet is plunged into it, inducing a voltage and, consequently, a current
natulia [17]

Answer:

Resistance of the second wire is twice the first wire.

Explanation:

Let us first see the formula of resistance;

R = pxL/A

Here L is the lenght of the wire, A the area and p is the resistivity of wire.

As we are given that the length of second wire is double than that of the first wire, hence the resistance of second wire would be double.

Since we have two loop in second case, inducing double voltage but as resistance is doubled so the current would remain same according to ohms law

I = V/R

A horizontal force of magnitude 30.2 N pushes a block of mass 3.50 kg across a floor where the coefficient of kinetic friction i
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

A) 89.39 J

B) 30.39J

C) 23.8 J

Explanation:

We are given;

F = 30.2N

m = 3.5 kg

μ_k = 0.646

d = 2.96m

ΔEth (Block) = 35.2J

A) Work done by the applied force on the block-floor system is given as;

W = F•d

Thus, W = 30.2 x 2.96 = 89.39 J

B) Total thermal energy dissipated by the whole system which includes the floor and the block is given as;

ΔEth = μ_k•mgd

Thus, ΔEth = 0.646 x 3.5 x 9.8 x 2.96 = 65.59J

Now, we are given the thermal energy of the block which is ΔEth (Block) = 35.2J.

Thus,

ΔEth = ΔEth (Block) + ΔEth (floor)

Thus,

ΔEth (floor) = ΔEth - ΔEth (Block)

ΔEth (floor) = 65.59J - 35.2J = 30.39J

C) The total work done is considered as the sum of the thermal energy dissipated as heat and the kinetic energy of the block. Thus;

W = K + ΔEth

Therefore;

K = W - ΔEth

K = 89.39 - 65.59 = 23.8J
