Height of tallest wave possible

Answers

Answer 1
An earthquake followed by a landslide in 1958 in Alaska's Lituya Bay generated a wave 100 feet high, the tallest tsunami ever documented. When the wave ran ashore, it snapped trees 1,700 feet upslope. Five deaths were recorded, but property damage was minimal because there were few cities or towns nearby.

Train A leaves the station heading north at 80 mph. At the same time and from the same station, Train B heads south 65 mph. How far apart are the trains after 3 hours fo travel?

Answers

Answer:

The trains will be 435 miles apart

Explanation:

Distance covered by the two trains can be obtained by multiplying their speeds with the time frame under consideration - in this our case, it is  3hours.

For Train A

Distance covered = 80mph X 3 hours = 240miles

For train B

Distance covered = 65mph X 3 hours = 195 miles.

The total distance between the two trains after 3 hours will be

240 + 195 = 435 miles

Why is the Greenland ice sheet so important to understanding earths past climate?

Answers

Answer:

The ice sheet as a record of past climates

Scientists have, using those ice cores, obtained information on (proxies for) temperature, ocean volume, precipitation, chemistry and gas composition of the lower atmosphere, volcanic eruptions, solar variability, sea-surface productivity, desert extent and forest fires.

Answer:

The Greenland ice sheet is the last remaining ice sheet from the most recent ice age. Therefore, it can tell scientists about the climate conditions of that period.

A rubber ball moving at a speed of 5 m/s hit a flat wall and returned to the thrower at 5 m/s. Which statement
correctly describes the momentum of the rubber ball?
a. Its magnitude increased and its direction changed.
b. Its magnitude increased but its direction remained the same.
c. Its magnitude remained the same but its direction changed.
d. Its magnitude and its direction both remained the same.

Answers

Answer:

d. Its magnitude and its direction both remained the same.

Explanation:

Momentum can be defined as the multiplication (product) of the mass possessed by an object and its velocity. Momentum is considered to be a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.

Mathematically, momentum is given by the formula;

[tex] Momentum = mass * velocity [/tex]

The law of conservation of momentum states that the total linear momentum of any closed system would always remain constant with respect to time.

This ultimately implies that, the law of conservation of momentum states that if objects exert forces only on each other, their total momentum is conserved.

In this scenario, a rubber ball moving at a speed of 5 m/s hit a flat wall and returned to the thrower at 5 m/s. Thus, the statement which correctly describes the momentum of the rubber ball is that its magnitude and its direction both remained the same because its velocity didn't change while returning to the thrower.

The correct statement should be "Its magnitude remained the same but its direction changed". Option C is correct.

Given information:

A rubber ball moving at a speed of 5 m/s hit a flat wall and returned to the thrower at 5 m/s.

Now, the mass of the ball doesn't change and the magnitude of the velocity is also the same.

Momentum can be defined as the product of mass and velocity. It is a vector quantity because velocity is also a vector quantity, and it has magnitude and direction.

Now, the magnitude of momentum will be the same because mass and velocity don't change in magnitude.

The direction of velocity will be reversed. So, the direction of momentum will also be reversed.

Therefore, the correct statement should be "Its magnitude remained the same but its direction changed". Option C is correct.

For an object falling at the terminal velocity, list all the forces (magnitude and direction) acting it?

Answers

Answer:

Three stages of falling

There are three stages as an object falls through a fluid:

at the start, the object accelerates downwards due to the force of gravity

as the object's speed increases, frictional forces such as air resistance or drag increase

at terminal velocity, the weight of the object due to gravity is balanced by the frictional forces, and the resultant force is zero

In terms of activation energy, why does increasing the temperature of a reaction make it proceed more quickly? A. Increasing the temperature increases how many reactant molecules reach activation energy. B. Increasing the temperature reduces the activation energy C. Increasing the temperature increases the potential energy of the reactants D. Increasing the temperature makes the molecules move slower.​

Answers

Answer:

A. Increasing the temperature increases how many reactant molecules reach activation energy.

Explanation:

The correct statement is " Increasing the temperature increases how many reactant molecules reach activation energy"

What is activation energy?

"Activation energy is the minimum amount of energy that must be provided to molecules /atoms of the compounds/ elements to result in a chemical reaction."

When temperature increases the kinetic energy of the molecules increases hence more reactant molecules reach the activation energy.

So it can be concluded that by Increasing the temperature increases how many reactant molecules reach activation energy.

Explain the melting of a solid in terms of molecules and energy​

Answers

When you melt a solid the heat creates energy, when you heat up molecules they will move quicker and start to somewhat break apart into a liquid structure.

Heat generates energy when you melt a solid; as you heat up molecules, they move faster and begin to break apart into a liquid form.

What is the melting point?

The melting point is the point at which a substance transforms from a solid to a liquid.

The melting point of a liquid is the temperature at which it transforms from a solid to a liquid at atmospheric pressure. This is the point where the liquid and solid phases are in balance.

Heat generates energy when you melt a solid; as you heat up molecules, they move faster and begin to break apart into a liquid form.

The kinetic energy of the molecule is due to the movement of the molecule as the temperature of the system increases the melting point comes closer.

As the temperature increases the kinetic energy of the molecule increases.

Hence the energy, melting point, and temperature relatively affect each other.

Find the gravitational force between Venus (4.87 x 1024 kg) and
the sun (1.989 x 100 kg). Venus orbits at a distance of
1.082 x 10" m.

Answers

I agree 1.083 ....?jejebe you are

The gravitational force between Venus and the Sun, seperated at the distance of 1.082×10¹¹ m is 5.520×10²² N.

What is gravitational force?

Gravitational force is the attractive force between two bodies. It is applicable to all the bodies have masses and it is called as Universal law of gravitation.

Grarvitational force is the attractive force is directly proportional to the product of two masses and is inversely proportional to the square of distance between them.

F ∝ m₁ × m₂ / d², m₁ and m₂ is the mass of two bodies and is the distance between two bodies. The SI unit of mass is kg and SI unit of distance is m. The SI unit of force is newton.

From the gravitational force,

F = G (m₁×m₂ / d²)

G represents gravitational constant and is equal to 6.67× 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg².

From the given,

m₁ ( mass of venus ) = 4.87 x 10²⁴kg

m₂ ( mass of sun) = 1.989 x 10³⁰ kg

d² ( distance between sun and venus) = 1.082 x 10¹¹ m.

G = 6.67 ×10⁻¹¹ N.m² / kg²

F = G (m₁×m₂ / d²)

  = 6.67 ×10⁻¹¹ × 4.87 x 10²⁴× 1.989 x 10³⁰ / (1.082 x 10¹¹)²

 = 5.520 × 10²² N

The gravitational force between the venus and sun at the distance of  1.082 x 10¹¹ is 5.520× 10²² N.

The measurements are in meters

The “ambient” index of refraction is assumed to be n=1.00

The inverse of the object distance plus the dioptric power of the lens (convex—positive and concave—negative) equals the inverse of the image distance.
