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.

Answers

Answer:

The radius of the slave piston​ = 14.10 cm

Explanation:

The formula to apply here is that for pressure where ;

Pressure = Force / Area

F₁ /A₁ =F₂/A₂    where ; F₁=200 N  , A₁= 25 cm² , F₂ =5000 N ,A₂ =?

Apply values in the equation as ;

200/ 25 = 5000/ A₂

A₂ = 625 cm²

Formula for area is ;

A = πr²  

625 = π * r²

625/π = r²

√625/π =r

14.10 cm = r

What is a main difference between a mixture and a pure substance?
illl give you 100 points!!!

A mixture is only a liquid, but a pure substance can be in any state.
A mixture looks the same throughout, but a pure substance does not.
A mixture can vary in composition, but a pure substance has a set composition.
A mixture can be made up of a single compound, but a pure substance cannot.

Answers

Answer:

C

Explanation:

A-false, mixtures can be solids too.

B-false, pure substances will have a constant appearance

C-true, a mixture has two or more composition, but the pure substance has a constant composition

D-false, mixtures have more than 1 compounds as I said before

A mixture can vary in composition, but a pure substance has a set composition. Thus, a pure substance is homogeneous always.

What is a mixture?

A mixture is the combination of two or more individual components which are mixed physically or chemically. Mixtures can be homogenous or heterogenous.

A pure substance is a fixed composition containing its own particles only. For example, water, fruits, pure metals etc.Thus, pure substances are always homogeneous.  In the case of mixtures, the composition is not definite.

Homogeneous mixtures appears to be one phase whereas, a heterogenous mixture shows phase separation. The components of a mixture can be separated physically.

Answers

Answer:

Explained below.

Explanation:

Conductors can be defined as materials that permit electricity to flow through them easily.

Now, metals have a molecular structure that makes them good conductors because electrons in the atoms of these conductors tend to move freely from one atom to the other. So a majority of metals make good conductors because these metals tend to hold their electrons loosely. In short, it can help engineers make powerful batteries because then it means that they are capable of giving much more electrical energy since nowadays, advanced batteries make use of ion charges for the batteries.

Answers

Answer:

radius of a circle is measured by an instrument, so it is the independent variable

Explanation:

The independent variable corresponds to the magnitude controlled by the experimenter and in general can be measured by an instrument.

The dependent variable is the variable used to perform the calculations, obtained from a mathematical transformation of the independent variable.

The radius of a circle is measured by an instrument, so it is the independent variable and the area is calculated by

         A = π r²

Therefore the area corresponds to the dependent variable

LuLu mixes a solution of vinegar for a homemade salad dressing she is making. She makes 300 mL of vinegar by mixing 135 mL acetic vinegar with water. What is the percent by volume of the solute?

Answers

Answer:

percentage by volume of the solute = 45%

Explanation:

The percentage by volume of the solute in a solution is the percentage of the volume of the solute as against the overall volume of the solution.

In this example,

volume of solution = 300mL

volume of solute = 135mL

% volume of solute = (volume of solute ÷ volume of solution) × 100

= (135 ÷ 300) × 100

= 0.45 × 100 = 45%

∴ percentage by volume of the solute = 45%

A man speeding at 40m/s decides to outrun the cops and starts to
accelerate at a rate of 2.5m/s2 for 12 seconds. What is the criminal's new
speed?

Answers

Answer:

70 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed, u = 40 m/s

Acceleration = 2.5 m/s²

Time, t = 12 s

We need to find criminal's new  speed. Let it is v. Using equation of motion to find it as follows :

v = u +at

Substitute all the values

v = 40 + 2.5(12)

v = 70 m/s

So, the new speed is 70 m/s.

- During a certain period, the angular position of a rotating object is given by: = − + , where  is in radian and t is in seconds. Determine the angular position, angular speed, and angular acceleration of the rotating object at = Sec.

Answers

The question is not complete. The complete question is :

During a certain period of time, the angular position of a rotating object is given by [tex]$\theta =2t^2 +10t+5$[/tex], where θ is in radians and t is in seconds.  Determine the angular position, angular speed, and angular acceleration of the door (a) at t = 0.00 seconds, (b) at t = 3.00 seconds.

Solution :

Given :

Displacement or angular position of the object, [tex]$\theta =2t^2 +10t+5$[/tex]

∴ Angular speed is   [tex]$\omega = \frac{d \theta}{dt}$[/tex]

                                 ω = 10 + 4t

And angular acceleration is [tex]$\alpha = \frac{d \omega}{dt}$[/tex]

                                              α = 4

a). At time, t = 0.00 seconds :

   Angular displacement is [tex]$\theta =2t^2 +10t+5$[/tex]

                                            [tex]$\theta =2(0)^2 +10(0)+5$[/tex]

                                               = 5 rad

  Angular speed is  ω = 10 + 4t

                                 ω = 10 + 4(0)

                                     = 10 rad/s

Angular acceleration is α = 4 [tex]$rad/s^2$[/tex]

b). At time, t = 3.00 seconds :

   Angular displacement is [tex]$\theta =2t^2 +10t+5$[/tex]

                                            [tex]$\theta =2(3)^2 +10(3)+5$[/tex]

                                               = 53 rad

  Angular speed is  ω = 10 + 4t

                                 ω = 10 + 4(3)

                                     = 22 rad/s

Angular acceleration is α = 4 [tex]$rad/s^2$[/tex]
