Answer:

The answer is C

Explanation:

<h2>The outer core is about 1,400 miles thick, and it's made mostly of a combination (called an alloy) of <u><em>iron</em></u> and nickel, along with small amounts of other dense elements like gold, platinum, and uranium.</h2>

What happens to the convection fluid as it heats up? How might this relate to masses of heated air?
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

The convection process plays an important role in the liquid. Due to the increasing heat supply or high amount of temperature, the fluid gets heated up, as a result of which it becomes warm, less dense and eventually rises up forming convection cells.

In the interior of the earth, the hot molten rocks get heated up due to the heat supplied by the core of the earth. This makes the magma warm and less dense and rises upward forming convection currents in the mantle.

This convection process is similar to the convection cells that form in the atmosphere, where the hot, less dense air rises up in the atmosphere forming a low-pressure zone. This uprising air forms convection cells, in which the warm air rises and as it rises high in the atmosphere, the temperature becomes low, making the air cold and it eventually sinks.

How can you prove the mechanical nature of sound by a simple experiment
Kruka [31]

Answer:

That is, mechanical waves cannot travel through a vacuum. This feature of mechanical waves is often demonstrated in a Physics class. A ringing bell is placed in a jar and air inside the jar is evacuated. Once air is removed from the jar, the sound of the ringing bell can no longer be heard.

Two blocks of masses m and 3m are placed on a frictionless, horizontal surface. A light spring is attached to the more massive b
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) Conservation of momentum is followed

m₁ v₁  = m₂ v₂

3m x 2 = m  v

v = 6 m/s

Total kinetic energy

= 1/2 x .35 x 6 ² + 1/2 x 1.05 x 2 ²

= 8.4 J

This energy must be stored as elastic energy in the spring which was released as kinetic energy on burning the cord.

Yes , the conservation of momentum will be followed  in the bursting apart process. Only internal forces have been involved in the process. Two equal and opposite internal forces are created by spring which creates motion and generates kinetic energy.
