Which is the correct definition for sea floor spreading

Answers

Answer 1
In sea-floor spreading, the sea floor spreads apart along both sides of a mid-ocean ridge as new crust is added.


In result, the ocean floors move like conveyor belts, carrying the continents along with them

describe the steps that occurs in the process of fission

Answers

Answer:

--In the first step, a uranium-235 atom absorbs a neutron, and splits into two new atoms (fission fragments), releasing three new neutrons and a large amount of binding energy. -- In the second step, one of those neutrons is absorbed by an atom of uranium-238, and does not continue the reaction.

OR

Nuclear fission begins when a neutron hits the nucleus of an atom. The nucleus splits in two and releases thermal energy and releases more neutrons. The neutrons hits the nuclei of more atoms, splitting them and releasing more energy and neutrons.

Two rocks of masses 5 kg and 10 kg a dropped from rest from a height of 20 m above ground. Ignore all friction and air resistance. Just before
they hit the ground, which statement is true about the rocks?
(A) The value for the acceleration of the 5 kg rock is the same as the value for the 10 kg rock, but their velocity values are different.
(B) The values for the acceleration and velocity of the 5 kg rock are greater than the values for the 10 kg rock.
(C) The values for the acceleration and velocity of the 5 kg rock are less than the values for the 10 kg rock.
(D) The values for the acceleration and velocity of the 5 kg rock are the same as the values for the 10 kg rock.

Answers

Answer:

D

Explanation:

F=ma

F of 5 kg rock = 49N

F of 10 kg rock = 98 N

Divide by respective masses to get acceleration, and of course you will get 9.8 m/s^2 for both.

Now, use potential energy equals kinetic energy. mgh=(1/2)mv^2 mass cancels out of the equation, since it's on both sides, so we can stop right there. We have algebraically determined that mass does not affect acceleration or velocity!

Answers

Answer:

1. The elastic potential energy is 0.0176 Joules

2. The kinetic energy of the pinball the instant it leaves the spring is 0.0176 Joules

3. The speed of the pinball the instant it leaves the spring is approximately 2.42212 m/s

4. The height of the part where the pinball is located on the machine above the ground is approximately 0.213 meters

Explanation:

The spring constant of the pinball machine's plunger, k = 22 N/m

The amount by which the pinball machine's plunger is compressed, x = 0.04 m

The mass of the pinball ball, m = 0.006 kg

1. The elastic potential energy, P.E. = 1/2·k·x²

By substitution, we get;

P.E. = 1/2 × 22 N/m × (0.04 m)² = 0.0176 J

The elastic potential energy, P.E. = 0.0176 J

2. At the instant the pinball leaves the spring, the plunger and therefore the force of the plunger no longer acts on the pinball

Since there are no external forces acting on the pinball to increase the speed of the pinball after it leaves the spring, the velocity reached is its maximum velocity, and therefore, the kinetic energy, K.E. is the maximum kinetic energy which by the conservation of energy, is equal to the initial potential energy

Therefore;

K.E. = P.E. = 0.0176 J

The kinetic energy of the pinball the instant it leaves the spring, K.E.= 0.0176 J

3. The kinetic energy, K.E., is given by the following formula;

K.E. = 1/2·m·v²

Where;

v = The speed or velocity of the object having kinetic energy K.E.

Therefore, from K.E. = 0.0176 J, and by plugging in the values of the variables, we have;

K.E. = 0.0176 J = 1/2 × 0.006 kg × v²

v² = 0.0176 J/(1/2 × 0.006 kg) = 88/15 m²/s²

v = √(88/15 m²/s²) ≈ (2·√330)/15 m/s ≈ 2.42212 m/s

The speed of the pinball the instant it leaves the spring, v ≈ 2.42212 m/s

4. The height of the pinball is given by the following kinematic equation of motion;

[tex]v_h[/tex]² = u² - 2·g·h

Where;

[tex]v_h[/tex] = The velocity of the pinball at the given height = 1.3 m/s

u = v ≈ 2.42212 m/s (The initial velocity of the pinball as it the spring)

g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.8 m/s²

h = The height of the pinball above the ground

We get;

[tex]v_h[/tex]² = 1.3² = 2.42212² - 2 × 9.8 × h

∴  h = (2.42212² - 1.3²)/(2 × 9.8) ≈ 0.213

The height of the part where the pinball is located on the machine above the ground, h ≈ 0.213 m

A sodium vapor lamp omit waves with the frequency of 5.26x10^14 Hz. What is the wavelength of light?

Answer:

[tex]\lambda=5.70\times 10^{-7}\ m[/tex]

Explanation:

The frequency of a sodium vapor lamp, [tex]f=5.26\times 10^{14}\ Hz[/tex]

We need to find the wavelength of light. The relation between wavelength, frequency and speed of light is given by :

[tex]c=f\lambda\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{5.26\times 10^{14}}\\\\\lambda=5.70\times 10^{-7}\ m[/tex]

So, the wavelength of light is equal to [tex]5.70\times 10^{-7}\ m[/tex].

As a cold air mass advances on a warm air mass, what usually comes before it?​

Answers

Answer: A cold front occurs when a cold air mass advances into a region occupied by a warm air mass. If the boundary between the cold and warm air masses doesn't move, it is called a stationary front.

Explanation: Two types of occluded front exist: the warm-type and the cold-type. They’re distinguished by the relative temperatures of the air mass ahead of the occlusion – in other words, the air mass ahead of the original warm front – and the air mass behind the cold front. If the air behind the cold front is colder than the air ahead of the occlusion, it shoves beneath that air (because it’s denser) to form a cold-type occluded front. If the air behind the cold front is warmer than the air ahead, it rides over it to form a warm-type occluded front – which appears to be the more common case. In either situation, the lighter warm air representing the air mass originally between the warm and cold fronts sits above the boundary between the two cooler air masses.

What do the arrows in this photograph represent?

C. A pair of unbalanced forces at work
D. Friction and air resistance

Answers

Answer: B An action-reaction force pair

Explanation: Took the exam

The arrows in this photograph represent: An action-reaction force pair. Hence, option (B) is correct.

What is  action-reaction force pair?

When two bodies interact, they exert an equal and opposite force on one another in accordance with Newton's third law of motion. Action-reaction forces are made up of these forces.

"When one body exerts a force on the other body, the first body experiences a force that is equal in magnitude in the opposite direction of the force which is exerted," according to Newton's third law of motion.

According to the above assertion, there are always two forces operating on the objects involved in an interaction. The forces are of identical magnitude, but the direction of the force acting on the first object is different from the direction acting on the second.

What is the speed of a 180 g ball if its kinetic energy is 100 J?

Answers

Answer:

Velocity, V = 33.33 m/s

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 180grams to kilograms = 180/1000 = 0.18 kg

Kinetic energy = 100J

To find the speed;

Kinetic energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its motion.

Mathematically, kinetic energy is given by the formula;

[tex] K.E = \frac{1}{2}MV^{2}[/tex]

Where;

K.E represents kinetic energy measured in Joules.

M represents mass measured in kilograms.

V represents velocity measured in metres per seconds square.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

100 = ½*0.18*V²

Cross-multiplying, we have;

200 = 0.18*V²

V² = 200/0.18

V² = 1111.11

Taking the square root of both sides, we have;

Velocity, V = 33.33 m/s


A car travels at 12 m/s. The car then accelerates at 3 m/s2 until it reaches a speed of 18m/s.

Calculate the distance the car travels.
A
2 m
B
6 m
С
30 m
D
60 m

Answers

Answer:

С. 30 m

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity, U = 12m/s

Final velocity, V = 18m/s

Acceleration, a = 3m/s²

To find the distance, we would use the third equation of motion;

V ² = U² + 2aS

Substituting into the equation, we have

18² = 12² + 2*3*S

324 = 144 + 6S

6S = 324 - 144

6S = 180

S = 180/6

Distance, S = 30 meters.
