Answer:

There are many examples of fossils found on separate continents and nowhere else, suggesting the continents were once joined. If Continental Drift had not occurred, the alternative explanations would be: ... They swam to the other continent/s in breeding pairs to establish a second population.

What can increase the gravitational potential energy of a object
love history [14]

Answer:

Increase in mass and height

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of an object can increase if the mass and height of object is increased.

Gravitational potential energy is the energy due to the position of a body.

It is expressed as:

  Gravitational potential energy = mass x acceleration due gravity x height

Increasing mass and height will cause an increase in gravitational potential energy.

A girl throws a ball of mass 0.80 kg against a wall. The ball strikes the wall horizontally with a speed of 25 m/s, and it bounc
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

F = 800N

the magnitude of the average force exerted on the wall by the ball is 800N

Explanation:

Applying the impulse-momentum equation;

Impulse = change in momentum

Ft = m∆v

F = (m∆v)/t

Where;

F = force

t = time

m = mass

∆v = v2 - v1 = change in velocity

Given;

m = 0.80 kg

t = 0.050 s

The ball strikes the wall horizontally with a speed of 25 m/s, and it bounces back with this same speed.

v2 = 25 m/s

v1 = -25 m/s

∆v = v2 - v1 = 25 - (-25) m/s = 25 +25 = 50 m/s

Substituting the values;

F = (m∆v)/t

F = (0.80×50)/0.05

F = 800N

the magnitude of the average force exerted on the wall by the ball is 800N

Which Of The Following Statements Are True?
aksik [14]

Answer:

A) The north pole of a bar magnet will attract the south pole of another bar magnet.

B) Earth's geographic north pole is actually a magnetic south pole.

E) The south poles of two bar magnets will repel each other.

Explanation:

<u>According to </u><u>classical physics</u>, a magnetic field always has two associated magnetic poles (north and south), the same happens with magnets. This means that if we break a magnet in half, we will have two magnets, where each new magnet will have a new south pole, and a new north pole.

This is because <u>for classical physics, naturally, magnetic monopoles can not exist. </u>

In this context,  Earth is similar to a magnetic bar with a north pole and a south pole. This means, the axis that crosses the Earth from pole to pole is like a big magnet.  

Now, by convention, on all magnets the north pole is where the magnetic lines of force leave the magnet and the south pole is where the magnetic lines of force enter the magnet.  

Then, for the case of the Earth, the north pole of the magnet is located towards the geographic south pole and the south pole of the magnet is near the geographic north pole.  

And it is for this reason, moreover, that the magnetic field lines enter the Earth through its magnetic south pole (which is the geographic north pole).

Suppose a light ray is changing direction when it changes from one transparent medium to another. Which of the following changes
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
The correct option is C i..e.
change the second medium to get a greater difference than before in the speed of light in the two mediums


Explanation: whenever light goes from one medium to another, kts frequency remains unchanged. It totally depends on tbe refractive index of the medium, which can change the speed of light.
If the refractive index of the entering medium is less than that of the medium from which light came,then the angle will be wider.
