Answer 2

The iron-nickel alloy melts due to hot temperatures. This statement best explains why Earth’s outer core is in liquid form

Where is the outer core?

The Earth's outer core is the second innermost layer, located between the inner core and the mantle. It contains mostly iron and nickel, which- due to lower pressure than existing at the inner core- are in the liquid form. The outer core, about 2,200 kilometers (1,367 miles) thick, is mostly composed of liquid iron and nickel  because of the high temperature. However, the intense pressure, which increases towards the inner core, dramatically changes the melting point of the nickel–iron, making it solid. The  iron and nickel alloy of the outer core is very hot, between 4,500° and 5,500° Celsius (8,132° and 9,932° Fahrenheit).

The outer core is a liquid alloy of mainly iron and nickel. The reason why the core is metal is that the heavy metals sank to the center while the Earth was cooling. The mantle which lies above the core is made of molten rock

correct option is a) The iron-nickel alloy melts due to hot temperatures.

How high can a 40 N force move a load, when 395 J of work is done? (Show work)

Answers

Distance = Work / Force
Distance= 395J/ 40N
Distance= 9.875 meters

A 40 N force would move a load 9.875 m high when 395 J of work is done on the load.

What is work done?

The total amount of energy transferred when a force is applied to move an object through some distance

The work done is the multiplication of applied force with displacement.

The SI  unit of work done by an object is Joules.

IJ is the work done when a force of 1 N displaces an object by 1 m .

Work Done = Force * Displacement

For the given problem Force =40N and work done = 395 J

By using the above formula

Work Done = Force * Displacement

395 j = 40 N × height

height =9.875 m

Thus a 40 N force supported by a work done of 395 J moves the load up to 9.875 m height

Calculate the speed with which you would have to throw a rock to put it into orbit around the asteroid 234 Ida near its surface, assuming 234 Ida is spherical. Ida’s mass is 4 × 1016 kg and its radius is 16 km.

Answers

Answer:

The speed with which a rock would have to be thrown to put it in 234 Ida's orbit, near its surface is approximately 12.917 m/s

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass of Ida, M = 4 × 10¹⁶ kg

The radius of 234 Ida, r = 16 km = 16,000 m

The speed, v, required to put a rock in 234 Ida's orbit near its surface is given by the orbital velocity equation as follows;

[tex]v = \sqrt{{\dfrac{G \times M}{r} } }[/tex]

Where;

G = The universal gravitational constant = 6.67408 × 10⁻¹¹ m³·kg⁻¹·s⁻²

Substituting the known values gives;

[tex]v = \sqrt{{\dfrac{6.67408 \times 10^{-11} \times 4 \times 10^{16}}{16,000} } } \approx 12.917[/tex]

Therefore, the speed required to put a rock in 234 Ida's orbit near its surface = v ≈ 12.917 m.

Answers

Answer:

3,544.375Joules

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its motion, It is expressed as;

Kinetic energy = 1/2mv²

m is the mass of the body

v is the velocity

For the ball carrier;

KE = 1/2(75)(6.5)²

KE = 3168.75/2

KE = 1584.375Joules

For the defender;

KE = 1/2(80)(7)²

KE = 3920/2

KE = 1960Joules

The kinetic energy of the ball carrier/defender system BEFORE the tackle = KE for the carrier + KE for the defender

kinetic energy of the ball carrier/defender system BEFORE the tackle= 1584.375+1960 = 3,544.375Joules

Cuatro niños jalan de manera separada un mismo carrito de baleros con un mismo desplazamiento, pero uno con un ángulo de 45°, otro con un ángulo de 35°, otro de 20° y el ultimo con un ángulo de 0°, medidos con respecto al eje horizontal. ¿Cuál de los cuatro realiza un mayor trabajo, si la fuerza que se aplica cada uno de ellos es la misma? Selecciona el ángulo:

Answers

Answer:

El niño que aplica una fuerza a un ángulo de 0º realiza el mayor trabajo.

Explanation:

Si consideramos que las fuerzas aplicadas en el carrito de baleros es constante tanto en magnitud como en dirección, el trabajo realizado por cada niño ([tex]W[/tex]), medido en joules, puede definirse mediante la siguiente expresión:

[tex]W =F\cdot x\cdot \cos \alpha[/tex] (1)

Donde:

[tex]F[/tex] - Magnitud de la fuerza aplicada por el niño, medida en newtons.

[tex]x[/tex] - Distancia desplazada por el carrito de baleros, medida en metros.

[tex]\alpha[/tex] - Dirección de la fuerza aplicada, medida en grados sexagesimales.

De (1) tenemos que la fuerza efectiva que empuja el carro es:

[tex]F_{e} = F\cdot \cos \alpha[/tex]

La fuerza aplicada por cada niño es despejada:

[tex]F = \frac{F_{e}}{\cos \alpha}[/tex]

A mayor ángulo, tenemos un menor valor del coseno y, por ende, mayor valor de la fuerza aplicada. Ahora, el mayor trabajo realizado se realiza con el menor ángulo posible y bajo esta consideración, el niño que aplica una fuerza a un ángulo de 0º realiza el mayor trabajo.

Friction of the mountain on the skier in the opposite direction

Explanation:

answered it on khan academy

Friction of the mountain on the skier in the opposite direction.

What is Newton's  third law?

A force is a push or a pull that acts upon an object as a results of its interaction with another object. Forces result from interactions.

Forces result from contact interactions (normal, frictional, tensional, and applied forces are examples of contact forces) and other forces are the result of action-at-a-distance interactions (gravitational, electrical, and magnetic forces).

There are two forces resulting from this interaction - a force on the chair and a force on your body. These two forces are called action and reaction forces and are the subject of Newton's third law of motion.

Therefore, Friction of the mountain on the skier in the opposite direction.

The formula for potential energy is:

                    G.P.E.=mgh

Weight (mass x gravity) determines the amount of potential energy.

Is there potential energy in the 5 forms of energy?

Yes, potential energy can be found in fossil fuels, within the foods you eat, and the batteries that you use.  

Conservation of Energy:

It is important to understand that each form of energy does not exist separately but undergoes change from one to another without a net loss in energy.  Consider this example:

As a projectile is launched into the air KE is at its maximum.  As the projectile gains altitude PE becomes greater than KE.  At the top of its arc, PE is at its maximum.  The whole cycle reverses itself on the way down.

As you can see, the loss in KE is a gain in PE.  Energy is not lost but conserved.

Law of conservation of energy.

   Energy cannot be created nor destroyed.  It can be transformed from one form to another, but the total amount of energy never changes.

Hello,

Let’s start off by saying potential energy stores a objects energy, and kinetic energy is a object in motion. You can use the mass of an object to find kinetic energy. As far as I know potential energy and kinetic energy combined is something that’s not moving but when it falls for example it can create kinetic energy. Hope this helps!

A 200-gram baseball traveling at 48 m/s is hit by a bat and rebounds in the opposite direction at 52 m/s. Find the average force of the bat on the ball if the time of contact is 2.0x10-3 s.

Answers

Answer:

400N

Explanation:

Given the following parameters

Mass m = 200g = 0.2kg

initial velocity u = 48m/s

Final velocity v = 52m/s

Time t = 2.0x10-3 s.

Impulse is expressed as I = Ft = m(v-u)

Ft = m(v-u)

F =  m(v-u)/t

Substitute the given values into the formula

F = 0.2(52-48)/0.002

F = 0.2(4)/0.002

F = 0.8/0.002

F = 400N

Hence the average force of the bat on the ball is 400N

The correct statement is:

A washing machine is being dragged with a starting force of 380.8 N to the South, but this is reduced by friction. If the mass of the washing machine is 37 kg  and the coefficient of friction is 0.54, what was the Net acceleration experienced by the washing machine?

The net force of the washing machine moving on the horizontal ground is equal to the external force minus the friction force, where the normal force from the ground on the washing machine is equal to its weight. The free body diagram of the washing machine is presented below. The equation of equilibrium associated with the acceleration of the washing machine is:

[tex]\Sigma F = P -\mu_{k}\cdot m \cdot g = m\cdot a[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]P[/tex] - External force exerted on the washing machine, measured in newtons.

[tex]\mu_{k}[/tex] - Kinetic coefficient of friction, dimensionless.

[tex]m[/tex] - Mass, measured in kilograms.

[tex]g[/tex] - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

[tex]a[/tex] - Net acceleration of the washing machine.

If we know that [tex]P = 380.8\,N[/tex], [tex]m = 37\,kg[/tex], [tex]g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex] and [tex]\mu_{k} = 0.54[/tex], then the net acceleration experienced by the washing machine is:

[tex]a = \frac{P}{m}-\mu_{k}\cdot g[/tex]

[tex]a = \frac{380.8\,N}{37\,kg}-(0.54)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)[/tex]

[tex]a = 4.996\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex]

A weightlifter takes 0.5s to raise a barbell with 2 free-weights from the ground to a height of 0.9m. If each free-weight has a mass of 30kg and the barbell has a mass of 20kg, calculate how much power the weightlifter produces when lifting the barbell?​

Answers

Answer:

P = 1412.82 [Watt]

Explanation:

First we must calculate the total mass that makes up the barbell and the two free weights at each end of the barbell.

[tex]m=30+30+20\\m= 80 [kg][/tex]

Weight is now defined as the product of mass by gravitational acceleration.

[tex]w=m*g[/tex]

where:

m = mass = 80 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

[tex]w=80*9.81\\w=784.8[N][/tex]

Now using the product of the weight by the distance traveled we can calculate the work.

[tex]W=w*d[/tex]

where:

W = work [J]

w = weight = 784.8 [N]

d = distance = 0.9 [m]

[tex]W=784.8*0.9\\W=706.41[J][/tex]

And power is defined as the relationship of work at a certain time. The potency is expressed by means of the following formula.

[tex]P=W/t\\P=706.41/0.5\\P=1412.82[W][/tex]
