Explanation:

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δy = (0 m/s) (7.0 s) + ½ (-9.8 m/s²)(7.0s)²

= -34.3

Which answer explains why plate B is moving underneath plate A
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

A.

Explanation:

Earth is composed of different layers and one layer moves over another due to differences in the densities.

According to the physics of density, a substance having less density floats over a higher density substance. The oceanic crust has more density than the continental crust that is why continental crust float over oceanic crust.

So in the given example, plate B is moving below the plate A, it means plate B is more dense than plate A because plate B is composed of oceanic crust . <u>For example : continents float over the asthenosphere (a layer below the lithosphere).</u>

Hence, the correct answer is "A ".

Why is pluto not a planet?
mihalych1998 [28]
Pluto revolves around a star instead of our SUN. So, it's an "Exo-planet" rather than a Planet. It has declared in 2006 by the scientists.

Hope this helps!

estion: Why is it important to use vector quantities and not just scalar quantities to describe the motion of an object? Vector
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Vector quantities are important in the study of motion. Some examples of vector quantities include force, velocity, acceleration, displacement, and momentum. The difference between a scalar and vector is that a vector quantity has a direction and a magnitude, while a scalar has only a magnitude. Vector, in physics, a quantity that has both magnitude and direction. It is typically represented by an arrow whose direction is the same as that of the quantity and whose length is proportional to the quantity's magnitude. A quantity which does not depend on direction is called a scalar quantity. Vector quantities have two characteristics, a magnitude and a direction. The resulting motion of the aircraft in terms of displacement, velocity, and acceleration are also vector quantities. A vector quantity is different to a scalar quantity because a quantity that has magnitude but no particular direction is described as scalar. A quantity that has magnitude and acts in a particular direction is described as vector.

arsen [322]

Explanation:

Geocentric model said that the Earth is at the center of the universe and everything revolves around it. It was considered to be stationary. Galileo proved this model incorrect with the help of his astronomical observations. Some of the key observation that he used to support the heliocentric model were:

1. He proposed the theory that the tides on the Earth occur because of its motion.

2. He observed the phases of the Venus which meant that the Venus revolved around the Sun and not the Earth.

3. He observed other planets and thus noted that they also move around the Sun and not Earth.

4. He discovered the Moons of other planets.

Suppose 3 mol of neon (an ideal monatomic gas) at STP are compressed slowly and isothermally to 0.19 the original volume. The ga
Radda [10]

Answer:

a. 273 K b. 90.1 K c. 5.26 atm d. 0.33 atm

Explanation:

For isothermal expansion PV = constant

So, P₁V₁ = P₂V₂ where P₁ = initial pressure of gas = 1 atm (standard pressure), V₁ = initial volume of gas, P₂ = final pressure of gas and V₂ = final volume of gas,

So, P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P₂ = P₁V₁/V₂

Since V₂/V₁ = 0.19,

P₂ = P₁V₁/V₂

P₂ = 1 atm (1/0.19)  

P₂ = 5.26 atm

For an adiabatic expansion, PVⁿ = constant where n = ratio of molar heat capacities = 5/3 for monoatomic gas

So, P₂V₂ⁿ = P₃V₃ⁿ where P₂ = initial pressure of gas = 5.26 atm, V₂ = initial volume of gas, P₃ = final pressure of gas and V₃ = final volume of gas,

So, P₂V₂ⁿ = P₃V₃ⁿ

P₃ = P₂V₂ⁿ/V₃ⁿ

P₃ = P₂(V₂/V₃)ⁿ

Since V₃ = V₁ ,V₂/V₃ = V₂/V₁ = 0.19

1/0.19,

P₃ = P₂(V₂/V₃)ⁿ

P₃ = 5.26 atm (0.19)⁽⁵/³⁾

P₃ = 5.26 atm × 0.0628

P₃ = 0.33 atm

Using the ideal gas equation

P₃V₃/T₃ = P₄V₄/T₄ where P₃ = pressure after adiabatic expansion = 0.33 atm , V₃ = volume after adiabatic expansion, T₃ = temperature after adiabatic expansion  P₄ = initial pressure of gas = P₁ = 1 atm , V₄ = initial volume of gas = V₁ and T₄ = initial temperature of gas = T₁ = 273 K (standard temperature)

P₃V₃/T₃ = P₄V₄/T₄

T₃ = P₃V₃T₄/P₄V₄    

T₃ = (P₃/P₄)(V₃/V₄)T₂

Since V₃ = V₄ = V₁ and P₄ = P₁

V₃/V₄ = 1 and P₃/P₄ = P₃/P₁

T₃ = (P₃/P₁)(V₃/V₄)T₂

T₃ = (0.33 atm/1 atm)(1)273 K  

T₃ = 90.1 K

So,

a. The highest temperature attained by the gas is T₁ = 273 K

b. The lowest temperature attained by the gas = T₃ = 90.1 K

c. The highest pressure attained by the gas is P₂ = 5.26 atm

d. The lowest pressure attained by the gas is P₃ = 0.33 atm
