What do you think a divergent (constructive) boundary is? How do plates interact with each other?

1 answer:

Divergent boundaries usually occur when two tectonic plates or more pull away from each-other causing the empty spaces to fill with magma or water. Tectonic plates interact with each-other in many different ways, they can move towards one another (converge), or move away from one another (diverge), or slide past one another (transform)... These movements occur during earthquakes.

A cylindrical rod 21.5 cm long with a mass of 1.20 kg and a radius of 1.50 cm has a ball of diameter of 6.90 cm and a mass of 2.

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer

given,

length of rod = 21.5 cm = 0.215 m

mass of rod (m) = 1.2 Kg

radius, r = 1.50

mass of ball, M = 2 Kg

radius of ball, r = 6.90/2 = 3.45 cm = 0.0345 m

considering the rod is thin

$I = \dfrac{1}{3}M_{rod}L^2 + [\dfrac{2}{5}M_{ball}R^2+M_{ball}(R+L)^2]$

$I = \dfrac{1}{3}\times 1.2 \times 0.215^2 + [\dfrac{2}{5}\times 2 \times 0.0345^2+2\times (0.0345 +0.215)^2]$

I = 0.144 kg.m²

rotational kinetic energy of the rod is equal to

$KE = M_{rod}g\dfrac{L}{2} + M_{ball}g(L+R)^2$

$KE = 1.2 \times 9.8 \times \dfrac{0.215}{2} + 2\times 9.8\times (0.215+0.0345)^2$

KE = 6.15 J

b) using conservation of energy

$K_f + U_f = K_i + U_i + \Delta E$

$\dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2+ 0=0 + 6.15+0$

$\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.144 \times \omega^2= 6.15$

ω = 9.25 rad/s

c) linear speed of the ball

v = r ω

v = (L+R )ω

v = (0.215+0.0345) x 9.25

v =2.31 m/s

d) using equation of motion

v² = u² + 2 g h

v² = 0 + 2 x 9.8 x 0.248

v = √4.86

v =2.20 m/s

speed attained by the swing is more than free fall

% greater = $\dfrac{2.31-2.20}{2.20}\times 100$

= 5 %

speed of swing is 5 % more than free fall

How much time is needed for a 15,000 w engine to do 1,800,000 j of work?

Hatshy [7]

We know that;
power=W/t
15000Watts=1800000J/t
t=1800000J/15000Watts
t=120s

A 12-kg turtle rests on the bed of a zookeeper's truck, which is traveling down a country road at 62.0 mi/h. The zookeeper spots

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

0.25683

Explanation:

t = Time taken by the truck to stop = 11 seconds

u = Initial velocity of the truck = 62 mi/h

v = Final velocity of the truck = 0

a = Acceleration of the truck

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Equation of motion

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v-u}{t}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{0-\frac{62}{2.237}}{11}\\\Rightarrow a=-2.5196\ m/s^2$

$\mu mg=ma\\\Rightarrow \mu=\frac{ma}{mg}\\\Rightarrow \mu=\frac{a}{g}\\\Rightarrow \mu=\frac{2.5196}{9.81}\\\Rightarrow \mu=0.25683$

The minimum coefficient of static friction between the turtle and the truck bed surface needed to prevent the turtle from sliding is 0.25683
