What discoveries support the idea of continental drift?

Physics

Nastasia [14]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: With the discovery of plate tectonics and the mapping of the earth into about 12 plates, plus the understanding that plates' movement caused earthquakes, Alfred Wegener's idea of " continental drift" looked less ludicrous than his contemporaries had thought.

Explanation: Hope this works :)! If not, I am sorry :(. If it does, Your Welcome! :)

A student discovers that sound waves travel 1,687.5 meters in 5 seconds through air at a temperature of 10°C. Based on this info
vitfil [10]

Answer:

The speed of sound, in m/s, through air at this temperature is 343.5 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

distance traveled by sound, d = 1,687.5 meters

time taken for the sound to travel, t = 5 seconds

air temperature, θ = 10°C

Speed of sound = distance traveled by sound / time taken for the sound to travel

Speed of sound = d / t

                           = 1687.5 m / 5 s

                           = 337.5 m/s

Speed of sound at the given temperature is calculated as;

c = 337.5 + 0.6θ

c = 337.5 + 0.6 x 10

c = 337.5 + 6

c = 343.5 m/s

Therefore, the speed of sound, in m/s, through air at this temperature is 343.5 m/s

Through what vertical height is a 50 N object moved if 250 J of work is done lifting it against the gravitational field of Earth
zimovet [89]

5m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Weight of object = 50N

Work done in lifting object = 250J

Unknown:

Vertical height = ?

Solution:

The work done on an object is the force applied to lift a body in a specific direction.

   Work done = force x distance

  Weight is a force in the presence of gravity;

  Work done = weight x height of lifting

Height of lifting = \frac{work done }{weight}

 Height of lifting = \frac{250}{50} = 5m

The vertical height through which the object was lifted is 5m
