Upper mantle

The theory of the plate tectonics uses the convection cells in the upper mantle layer as the foundation for the movement of the continents.
To put it simple the process is explained like the convection cells create a lot of pressure, that pressure, supported by the high temperatures and magma, influence the crust above, and manage to crack it on certain places. As the crust cracks, it becomes a separate entity, and under the enormous force from bellow it slowly moves into a particular direction, and that is actually the movement of the tectonic plates.

A 69 kg zebra is traveling 7 m/s east. What is the zebra’s momentum? kg-m/s

Hitman42 [59]

Linear momentum is the product of mass and velocity. In this case, it is simply:
$69\times 7 = 483 kg\cdot m/s$

You pull with a force of 295 N on a rope that is attached to a block of mass 22 kg, and the block slides across the floor at a c

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

Fnet = 0

Explanation:

Since the block slides across the floor at constant speed, this means that it's not accelerated.
According Newton's 2nd Law, if the acceleration is zero, the net force on the sliding mass must be zero.
This means that there must be a friction force opposing to the horizontal component of the applied force, equal in magnitude to it:

$F_{appx} = F_{app} * cos \theta = 295 N * cos 35 = 242 N (1)$

In the vertical direction, the block is not accelerated either, so the sum of the normal force and the vertical component of the applied force, must be equal in magnitude to the force of gravity on the block:

$F_{appy} = F_{app} * cos \theta = 295 N * sin 35 = 169 N (2)$

⇒ 169 N + Fn = Fg = 216 N (3)

This means that there must be a normal force equal to the difference between Fappy and Fg, as follows:
Fn = 216 N - 169 N = 47 N (4)

What is the term for hardening or curing the sealant or composite material by exposing the material to a curing light?

natka813 [3]

Answer:

Photopolymerization is the term for hardening or curing the sealant or composite material by exposing the material to a curing light

Explanation:

It the process through which a photopolymer reacts to the radiations in presence of the Ultra-violet light. Photopolymers refers to those materials and liquid or the plastic resins that are hardened in presence of light source such as the lasers or the lamps. When these materials are irradiated, they undergo chemical reactions and they are hardened and become solid, and hence the process called photopolymerization. Photopolymerization is majorly used in the coating and printing industries and in also in dentistry to fill the top of teeth and prevent the cavities

You have covered a grounded metal surface with a layer of photoconductor. Working in the dark, you sprinkle negative charge onto

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

A. the left half becomes neutral while the right half remains negatively charged

Explanation:

This is because wherever light strikes the photoconductor, it transforms from an insulator into a conductor. The charge will then migrate through it and leaves its surface. By exposing the left half of the photoconductor to light, you allow its local charge to leave and it becomes neutral.
