Describe the properties of oceanic crust

Physics
1 answer:
PSYCHO15rus [73]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Not including a sedimentary cover of variable thickness and composition, the oceanic crust consists of three layers: (1) a relatively thin uppermost volcanic layer of basaltic lavas known as mid-ocean ridge basalts (MORB) erupted on the seafloor; (2) a thicker layer of more coarsely crystalline, intrusive basaltic

Deep in the interiors of the giant planets, water is still a liquid even though the temperatures are tens of thousands of degree
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

High pressure inside the giant planet

Explanation:

As we move in the interior of the giant planet, the pressure and temperature in the interior of the planet increases. Since, the giant planets have hardly any solid surface and thus they are mostly constituted of atmosphere.

Also, the gravitational forces keep even the lightest of the matter bound in it contributing to the large mass of the planet.

If we look at the order of the magnitude of the temperature of these giant planets than nothing should be able to stay in liquid form but as the depth of the planet increases with the increase in temperature, pressure also increases which keeps the particle of the matter in compressed form.

Thus even at such high order of magnitude water is still found in liquid state in the interior of the planet.

How do I find the approximate velocity of "the object", on the graph at 5 seconds?
MakcuM [25]

First, foremost, and most critically, you must look at the graph, and critically
examine its behavior from just before until just after the 5-seconds point.

Without that ability ... since the graph is nowhere to be found ... I am hardly
in a position to assist you in the process.

A block of mass 27.00 kg sits on a horizontal surface with, coefficient of kinetic
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

The force is  F  = 172 \ N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  mass of the block is  m_b  = 27.0 \ kg

     The  coefficient of  static friction is  \mu_s  =  0.65

     The coefficient of kinetic friction is  \mu_k  =  0.50

The  normal force acting on the block is  

      N  =  m *  g

substituting values

     N  =   27 *  9.8

     N  =   294.6  \  N

Given that the force we are to find is the force required to get the block to start moving then the force acting against this force is the static frictional force which is mathematically evaluated as

        F_f  =  \mu_s  *  N

substituting values

        F_f  =   0.65 *  264.6

        F_f  =   172 \ N

Now for this  block to move the force require is  equal to F_f i.e

       F= F_f

=>    F  = 172 \ N
