Explanation:

The kinetic-molecular theory of gases can be stated as four postulates: A gas consists of molecules in constant random motion. Gas molecules influence each other only by collision; they exert no other forces on each other. All collisions between gas molecules are perfectly elastic; all kinetic energy is conserved.

Which type of mountain is created when rock layers are pushed up by forces inside the Earth?

skad [1K]

Correct answer choice is :

B) Upwarped

Explanation:

An upwarped mountain is a mountain consisting of a large area of the Earth's coat that has led smoothly upward without much visible deformation and normally including sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic rocks. Sedimentary rocks are set down in layers called beds or layers. A bed is described as a layer of rock that has a similar lithology and character. Beds form by the removal of layers of sand on top of each other.

Two charged objects separated by some distance attract each other. If the charges on both objects are doubled with no change in

Serggg [28]

Answer:

(a) The force between them quadruples

Explanation:

According to coulomb's law, initial force between the two charged objects is given as;

$F_1=\frac{Kq_1q_2}{r^2}$

where;

k is coulomb's constant

q₁ is the charge on the first object

q₂ is the charge on the second object

r is the distance between the two objects

When the charges on both objects are doubled, then;

q₁ = 2q₁

q₂ = 2q₂

Force between the two charged objects will become

$F_2 = \frac{K2q_12q_2}{r^2} = \frac{4Kq_1q_2}{r^2} = 4(\frac{Kq_1q_2}{r^2}) = 4F_1$

Therefore, the force between them quadruples

The opening to a cave is a tall, 30.0-cm-wide crack. A bat is preparing to leave the cave emits a 30.0 kHz ultrasonic chirp. How

Vlada [557]

Answer:

The value is $w = 7.54 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The length of the crack is $a = 0.3 \ m$

The frequency is $f = 30.0 \ kHz = 30 *10^{3} \ Hz$

The distance outside the cave that is being consider is $D = 100 \ m$

The speed of sound is $v_s = 340 \ m/s$

Generally the wavelength of the wave is mathematically represented as

$\lambda = \frac{v}f}$

=> $\lambda = \frac{340 }{30*10^{3}}$

=> $\lambda = 0.0113 \ m/s$

Generally for a single slit the path difference between the interference patterns of the sound wave and the center is mathematically represented as

$y = \frac{ n * \lambda * D}{a}$

=> $y = \frac{ 1 * 0.0113 * 100}{0.3}$

=> $y = 3.77 \ m$

Generally the width of the sound beam is mathematically represented as

$w = 2 * y$

=> $w = 2 * 3.77$

=> $w = 7.54 \ m$

Give reasons.<br>a) Sunlight does not fall on the ground where cloud forms shadow.

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Sunlight passing through a cloud is scattered in various directions. Some photons eventually find their way out the bottom of the cloud, some are reflected upwards, and some are absorbed, serving to warm the cloud. Since only a fraction of the light makes it to ground level, you have a shadow.
