Answer:

The Ring of Fire, also referred to as the Circum-Pacific Belt, is a path along the Pacific Ocean characterized by active volcanoes and frequent earthquakes. Its length is approximately 40,000 kilometers (24,900 miles). It traces boundaries between several tectonic plates—including the Pacific, Juan de Fuca, Cocos, Indian-Australian, Nazca, North American, and Philippine Plates.

Seventy-five percent of Earth’s volcanoes—more than 450 volcanoes—are located along the Ring of Fire. Ninety percent of Earth’s earthquakes occur along its path, including the planet’s most violent and dramatic seismic events.

lana [24]

Gasoline is predominantly octane, C8H18.  Something like soap would be a great homogenizer.  Soap is composed of a long hydrocarbon chain with a tiny, highly polar tip on one end.  Usually, the soap is the anion of a salt, NaX.  This allows the polar end of the soap to stick to water, while the nonpolar end sticks to the oil.

\frac{kg*m*m}{m^3*s*\mu}=1=\frac{kg}{m*s*\mu}

\mu=\frac{kg}{m*s}

A doorknob makes it easier for you to open doors because it is what type of simple machine?
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer: Wheel and Axle

Both of these work together to form a simple machine. You can't have one without the other.

If you try to turn just the axle itself, then you'll find it takes a lot of work. This is because the inertia of the axle wants to keep the object at rest. Also, you won't have a lot of torque due to the small radius compared to what a doorknob can offer.

Using a doorknob is like putting a (steering) wheel on an axle. This increases the radius and therefore increases the torque. You put in less work into the system and get more out of it.

True or false if an object displaces 50 ml of water the object's volume is 50mL
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The volume of water displaced by an object completely submerged is its actual volume. It implies that in the container the object create a space of size for itself which is the volume of the object. This approach is used in calculating the density of many irregular solids from their measured masses.
