The layers that make up the upper mantle are the following.

The lithosphere and the asthenosphere.
The lithosphere and the asthenosphere are the layers that make up the upper mantle.
The rocky outer part of the Earth is called the lithosphere.
It is very rigid, solid, and it is not as hot as the other parts.
According to scientists, its thickness is about 90 to 100 kilometers from the surface of the earth.
The layer of the Earth that moves the lithospheric plates is called the asthenosphere.
Lithospheric plates are 60 miles long on average and are composed of continental crust.

We conclude that the lithosphere and the asthenosphere are the layers that make up the upper mantle. The new lithosphere is being created at oceanic ridges due to plate tectonics. Yes, planet Earth is getting larger constantly.

Answer:

steady state temperature =88.7deg C

t=time within 1 deg C of it steady state is 8.31s

Explanation:

A 1 m long wire of diameter 1mm is submerged in an oil bath of temperature 25-degC. The wire has an electrical resistance per unit length of 0.01 Ω/m. If a current of 100 A flows through the wire and the convection coefficient is 500W/m2K, what is the steady state temperature of the wire? From the time the current is applied, how long does it take for the wire to reach a temperature within 1-degC of the steady state value? The density of the wire is 8,000kg/m3, its heat capacity is 500 J/kgK and its thermal condu

from lump capavity method

$B_{i} =\frac{hr/2}{k}$

500*(2.5*10^-4)/20

0.006<0.1

we know also, to find steady state temperature

$\pi$ Dh(T-Tinf)= $I^{2} R_{e}$

make T the subject of the equation , we have

T=25+ $\frac{100^2*0.01}{\pi*0.001*500 }$

T=88.7 degC

rate of chnage in temperature

dT/dt= $\frac{I^2*Re}{rho*c*\pi*D^2/4 } -\frac{4h}{rho*c*D} (T-Tinf)$

at t=o and integrating both sides $\frac{T-Tinf-(I^2*Re/\pi*Dh) }{Ti-Tinf-(I^2*Re/\pi*Dh } =exp\frac{-4ht}{rho*c*D}$

we have

$\frac{87.7-25-63.7}{25-25-63.7} =exp\frac{4*500t}{8000*500*0.001}$

t=8.31s

steady state temperature =88.7deg C

t=time within 1 degC of it steady stae is 8.31s

A burglar attempts to drag a 108 kg metal safe across a polished wood floor Assume that the coefficient of static friction is 0.

V125BC [204]

Answer:

2.00 m/s²

Explanation:

Given

The Mass of the metal safe, M = 108kg

Pushing force applied by the burglar, F = 534 N

Co-efficient of kinetic friction, $\mu_k$ = 0.3

Now,

The force against the kinetic friction is given as:

$f = \mu_k N = u_k Mg$

Where,

N = Normal reaction

g= acceleration due to the gravity

Substituting the values in the above equation, we get

$f = 0.3\times108\times9.8$

$f = 317.52N$

Now, the net force on to the metal safe is

$F_{Net}= F-f$

Substituting the values in the equation we get

$F_{Net}= 534N-317.52N$

$F_{Net}= 216.48$

also,

$F_{Net}= M\times$ acceleration of the safe

Therefore, the acceleration of the metal safe will be

acceleration of the safe= $\frac{F_{Net}}{M}$

acceleration of the safe= $\frac{216.48}{108}$

acceleration of the safe= $2.00 m/s^2$

Hence, the acceleration of the metal safe will be 2.00 m/s²

What happens to the gravitational attraction between 2 objects

amm1812

Answer:

It decreases.

Explanation:

between the two interacting objects, more separation distance will result in weaker gravitational forces. So as two objects are separated from each other, the force of gravitational attraction between them also decreases

Write this large number in scientific notation. Determine the values of Vm) and (n) when the following mass of the Earth is writ

hichkok12 [17]

Answer : The answer is, 5.97, 24

Explanation :

Scientific notation : It is the representation of expressing the numbers that are too big or too small and are represented in the decimal form with one digit before the decimal point times 10 raise to the power.

For example :

5000 is written as $5.0\times 10^3$

889.9 is written as $8.899\times 10^{-2}$

In this examples, 5000 and 889.9 are written in the standard notation and $5.0\times 10^3$ and $8.899\times 10^{-2}$ are written in the scientific notation.

If the decimal is shifting to right side, the power of 10 is negative and if the decimal is shifting to left side, the power of 10 is positive.

As we are given the 5,970,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 in standard notation.

Now converting this into scientific notation, we get:

$\Rightarrow 5,970,000,000,000,000,000,000,000=5.97\times 10^{24}$

As, the decimal point is shifting to left side, thus the power of 10 is positive.

Hence, the answer is, $5.97\times 10^{24}$

Now the answer is comparing to $m.\times 10^n$

So, m = 5.97 and n = 24

Thus, the answer is, 5.97, 24
