Explanation:

Trees, because of their height, are natural lightning rods. Electricity seeks the path of least resistance, and the moisture inside a tree is a much better conductor than air. This means a tree provides the preferred path for lightning to reach the ground.

Where does groundwater come from?

jek_recluse [69]

Groundwater is the water found underground in the cracks and spaces in soil, sand and rock. It is stored in and moves slowly through geologic formations of soil, sand and rocks called aquifers.

One difference between a hypothesis and a theory is that a hypothesis

artcher [175]

A hypothesis is a tentative statement which is made to try to explain a known phenomenon but whose truth value is still uncertain, whether it is true or no depends on further research. On the other hand, a theory is made up of hypothesis which have been proven to be true so far, a theory should be able to explain future phenomena successfully

You pull a solid nickel ball with a density of 8.91 g/cm3 and a radius of 1.40 cm upward through a fluid at a constant speed of

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

$P = 1.090\,N$

Explanation:

The constant speed means that ball is not experimenting acceleration. This elements is modelled by using the following equation of equilibrium:

$\Sigma F = P - W + F_{D}$

$\Sigma F = P - \rho \cdot V \cdot g + c\cdot v = 0$

Now, the exerted force is:

$P = \rho \cdot V \cdot g - c\cdot v$

The volume of a sphere is:

$V = \frac{4\cdot \pi}{3}\cdot R^{3}$

$V = \frac{4\cdot \pi}{3}\cdot (0.014\,m)^{3}$

$V = 1.149\times 10^{-5}\,m^{3}$

Lastly, the force is calculated:

$P = (8910\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} )\cdot (1.149\cdot 10^{-5}\,m^{3})\cdot (9.81\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )+(0.950\,\frac{kg}{s})\cdot (0.09\,\frac{m}{s} )$

$P = 1.090\,N$

A truck covered 2/7 of a journey at an average speed of 40

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

The amount of time for the whole journey is 8 hours.

Explanation:

A truck covered 2/7 of a journey at an average speed of 40 mph. Representing 1 the total of the trip traveled, then the rest of the distance traveled is calculated as: $1-\frac{2}{7} =\frac{5}{7}$

So if the truck covered the remaining 200 miles at $\frac{2}{7}$ , this means that $\frac{5}{7}$ of the trip represents the 200 miles. So, to calculate the total distance traveled by the truck, you apply the following rule of three: if $\frac{5}{7}$ of the route represents 200 miles, the integer 1 (which represents the total of the route), how many miles are they?

$miles=\frac{1*200miles}{\frac{5}{7} } =\frac{7}{5} *200 miles$

miles= 280

So the total distance traveled is 280 miles. Since speed is the relationship between the space traveled by an object and the time used for it ( $speed=\frac{distance}{time}$ ), then if the average of the entire trip was 35 mph and the distance traveled 280 miles, the time is calculated as:

$time=\frac{distance}{speed}=\frac{280 miles}{35 mph}$

time= 8 h

 The amount of time for the whole journey is 8 hours.
