Answer:

It's D. The geothermal energy from Earth's core loses most of its heat before reaching the outer layer. The plates on the outer layer have been proven to be moving due to evidence such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and tsunamis.

A 0.50 kg toy is attached to the end of a 1.0 m very light string. The toy is whirled in a horizontal circular path on a frictio

xenn [34]

Answer:

The maximum speed will be 26.475 m/sec

Explanation:

We have given mass of the toy m = 0.50 kg

radius of the light string r = 1 m

Tension on the string T = 350 N

We have to find the maximum speed without breaking the string

For without breaking the string tension must be equal to the centripetal force

So $T=\frac{mv^2}{r}$

So $350=\frac{0.5\times v^2}{1}$

$v^2=700$

v = 26.475 m /sec

So the maximum speed will be 26.475 m/sec

Compute the work performed when 32 pounds is lifted 10 feet.

Murljashka [212]

W = force * displacement
W = 32 pounds * 10 feet
Now you need to convert it to newton and meters
W = 142 N * 3.048 m = 434 J
(I approximated the conversions- I hope it helps)

Alternating Current In Europe, the voltage of the alternating current coming through an electrical outlet can be modeled by the

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

$\frac{50}{\pi }$ Hz

Explanation:

In alternating current (AC) circuits, voltage (V) oscillates in a sine wave pattern and has a general equation as a function of time (t) as follows;

V(t) = V sin (ωt + Ф) -----------------(i)

Where;

V = amplitude value of the voltage

ω = angular frequency = 2 π f [f = cyclic frequency or simply, frequency]

Ф = phase difference between voltage and current.

Now,

From the question,

V(t) = 230 sin (100t) ---------------(ii)

By comparing equations (i) and (ii) the following holds;

V = 230

ω = 100

Ф = 0

But;

ω = 2 π f = 100

2 π f = 100 [divide both sides by 2]

π f = 50

f = $\frac{50}{\pi }$ Hz

Therefore, the frequency of the voltage is $\frac{50}{\pi }$ Hz

An ideal gas is compressed in a well-insulated chamber using a well-insulated piston. This process is

Lisa [10]

Answer:

The options are

A) isochoric.

B) isothermal.

C) adiabatic.

D) isobaric.

The answer is C. Adiabatic

Adiabatic process involves zero loss or gain of heat in a system. This is usually depicted as Q= 0.

An ideal gas being compressed in a well-insulated chamber using a well-insulated piston involves the use of adiabatic process. The insulated chamber and piston helps to prevent heat loss or gain of heat. This is because insulators are poor conductors of heat and electricity.
