1. How does the structure of a hard-boiled egg compare to the crust, mantle, and core structure of Earth? What do the egg's laye

rs represent? What might the cracks represent?
2. How do Earth's layers compare in composition and properties with the egg's layers?

3. Can an egg be used as a satisfactory model for Earth's lithosphere (plates) and asthenosphere, plus the rest of the mantle, and the core? How? (Hint: Look very carefully under the shell could the membrane there represent the asthenosphere?)

4. Overall, is the cracked egg a useful model for Earth? Why or why not?

5. Unlike the eggshell sections, Earth's plates move relative to one another. A plate may move away from another plate, or it may move toward it. Earthquakes often result from interactions between plates. Predict what other consequences might result from plate motion.


6. Of the several possible non-egg models of Earth, which do you feel is most appropriate? Why?

7. Of the several possible nonegg models of Earth, which do you feel is least appropriate? Why?

Answer: for 1 and 2 The inside of the earth is layered something like an egg. Both have a thin, brittle shell. The crust of the earth is broken into pieces, like the cracked shell of a hard boiled egg. The mantle of the earth is like the egg white, and the core of the earth lies in the center, like the egg yolk.

for 3 the shell could also be used because you can crack

for 5 a few things that can happen in the result of plate motion there could be Mt formation or volcano formations.

Explanation:

I hope this helps :)

Intermolecular forces hold

I believe Intermolecular forces hold, <span>molecules, ions, and atoms? But I would see if that doesn't sound familiar check it with a site or something?</span>

The efficiency of a device such as a lamp can be calculated using this equation:
loris [4]

efficiency = (useful energy transferred ÷ energy supplied) × 100

It's easy to use this formula, but we have to know both the useful energy and the energy supplied.  The drawing doesn't tell us the useful energy, so we have to find a clever way to figure it out.  I see two ways to do it:

<u>Way #1:</u>

We all know about the law of conservation of energy.  So we know that the total energy coming out must be  250J, because that's how much energy is going in.  The wasted energy is 75J, so the rest of the 250J must be the useful energy . . . (250J - 75J) = 175J useful energy.

(useful energy) / (energy supplied) =  (175J) / (250J) = <em>70% efficiency</em>

================================

<u>Way #2: </u>

How much of the energy is wasted ? . . . 75J wasted

What percentage of the Input is that 75J ? . . . 75/250 = 30% wasted

30% of the input energy is wasted.  That leaves the other <em>70%</em> to be useful energy.

How to describe electric current as the flow of electrons
givi [52]
An electric current is a flow of electric charge. In electric circuits this charge is often carried by moving electrons in a wire. It can also be carried by ions in an electrolyte, or by both ions and electrons such as in an ionised gas (plasma).
