Which one of the following temperatures is equal to 5°C?
natali 33 [55]

Answer : The correct option is, (D) 278 K

Explanation :

We are given temperature 5^oC.

Now the conversion factor used for the temperature is,

K=^oC+273

where, K is kelvin and ^oC is Celsius.

Now put the value of temperature, we get

K=5^oC+273=278K

Therefore, the temperature 278 K is equal to the 5^oC

What is the kinetic energy of a 1.40 kg discus with a speed of 22.5 m/s?
Oksana_A [137]
Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed)²

                         = (1/2) (1.4 kg) (22.5 m/s)²

                         =    (0.7 kg)  (506.25 m²/s² )

                         =          354.375  kg-m²/s²  =  354.375 joules .

This is just the kinetic energy associated with a 1.4-kg glob of
mass sailing through space at 22.5 m/s.  In the case of a frisbee,
it's also spinning, and there's some additional kinetic energy stored
in the spin.

Which answer explains why plate B is moving underneath plate A
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

A.

Explanation:

Earth is composed of different layers and one layer moves over another due to differences in the densities.

According to the physics of density, a substance having less density floats over a higher density substance. The oceanic crust has more density than the continental crust that is why continental crust float over oceanic crust.

So in the given example, plate B is moving below the plate A, it means plate B is more dense than plate A because plate B is composed of oceanic crust . <u>For example : continents float over the asthenosphere (a layer below the lithosphere).</u>

Hence, the correct answer is "A ".
