Which answer explains why plate B is moving underneath plate A
A. Plate B is more dense than plate A because it is composed of oceanic crust
B. Plate A is more dense than plate B because it is composed of oceanic crust
C. plate B is more dense than plate A because it is composed of continental crust
D. Plate A is more dense than plate B because it is composed of continental crust
Answer:
A.
Explanation:
Earth is composed of different layers and one layer moves over another due to differences in the densities.
According to the physics of density, a substance having less density floats over a higher density substance. The oceanic crust has more density than the continental crust that is why continental crust float over oceanic crust.
So in the given example, plate B is moving below the plate A, it means plate B is more dense than plate A because plate B is composed of oceanic crust . For example : continents float over the asthenosphere (a layer below the lithosphere).
Hence, the correct answer is "A ".

How does an object become negatively charged
Explanation:
When insulating materials rub against each other, they may become electrically charged . Electrons , which are negatively charged, may be 'rubbed off' one material and on to the other. The material that gains electrons becomes negatively charged. The material that loses electrons is left with a positive charge.
When a ball is sitting still on top of a table, are the forces acting upon it balanced or unbalanced?
Answer:
Balanced
Explanation:
If a stationary object is staying still (in this case it's the ball) all of the forces acting upon it are balanced. If an object moving has balanced forces, it would move in the same direction at the same speed until a different outside force interrupts the equilibrium.
Hope this helps :)
This question involves the concepts of Newton's Second Law and Balanced Force.
The forces acting upon the ball are "Balanced".
Newton's Second LawAccording to Newton's Second Law whenever an unbalanced force is applied on an object, it produces an acceleration in the object in the direction of the force itself. This acceleration is directly proportional to the magnitude of the force and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.
Since, the ball is at rest and not moving. Hence, it has no acceleration and no unbalanced force is applied on it. The weight of the ball is balanced by the normal reaction provided by the table. Therefore, the forces acting on the ball are Balanced Forces.

5. A book is placed on a table. If the book exerts a force of 15 N'on the table,
how much force does the table exert on the book?
A. ON
C. 9.8 N
B. 3 N
D. 15 N
Answer:
D
Explanation:
The table is NOT in motion, so it will remain still. Newton's second law states that for every action, there's an equal and opposite reaction. Therefore, the table must push back the opposite direction(up) with the same force(15N)
In february a little town received snow on a daily basis. The first day they had 10 inches, 3 inches the second, 7 inches the 3rd, and 4 inches on the fourth day. What was the average snowfall?
Answer:
The average is 6
Explanation:
To find the average, you have to first add all the numbers. After you add all the numbers up, then you divide by how many numbers there are. This one had 4 numbers so you divide by 4
The average snowfall of the four days was 6 inches.
What is snow?
When atmospheric water vapor freeze into small ice crystals and falling in small white flakes or lying on the ground as a white layer, it is called snow.
In the question it is said that,
Amount of snow received by the town on first day = 10 inches.
Amount of snow received by the town on second day = 3 inches.
Amount of snow received by the town on third day = 7 inches.
Amount of snow received by the town on fourth day = 4 inches.
Total amount of snow received by the town on these four days = ( 10 + 3+ 7 + 4) inches.
=24 inches.
Hence, average amount of snow received by the town on these four days = total amount of snow received ÷ 4
= ( 24 ÷ 4) inches.
= 6 inches.
Hence, the average snow received by the little town was 6 inches on those days.

You are designing an apparatus to shoot a water balloon through a 3rd story window (25m above the ground)
Answer:
The balloon needs a vertical velocity of approximately 22.14 m/s to reach the window
Explanation:
The given parameters are;
The destination of the designed water balloon we shoot = The 3rd story window
The height of the 3rd story window which the water balloon should reach = 25 m
Therefore, we have, the equation of motion of the water balloon given as follows;
v² = u² - 2 × g × s
Where;
[tex]u_y[/tex] = The initial vertical velocity of the balloon
[tex]v_y[/tex] = The final vertical velocity of the balloon = 0 m/s
g = The acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s
s = The height the balloon is intended reach at the final velocity becomes 0 m/s = The height of the 3rd story window
∴ s = 25 m
Substituting the values, we have;
0² = [tex]u_y[/tex]² - 2 × 9.8 × 25
[tex]u_y[/tex]² = 2 × 9.8 × 25 = 490
[tex]u_y[/tex] = √490 = 7·√10
The initial vertical velocity of the balloon = [tex]u_y[/tex] = 7·√10 m/s
Therefore, the balloon needs a vertical velocity of 7·√10 m/s which is approximately 22.14 m/s to reach the window.

The heat loss from a boiler is to be held at a maximum of 900Btu/h ft2 of wall area. What thickness of asbestos (k= 0.10 Btu/h ft ℉) is required if the inner and outer surfaces of the insulation are to be 1600 and 500℉, respectively? Now if a 3-in.-thick layer of kaolin brick (k= 0.07 Btu/h ft ℉) is added to the outside of the asbestos, what heat flux will be result if the outside surface of the kaolin is 250℉? What will be the temperature at the interface between the asbestos and kaolin for this condition?
Answer:
a. 0.122 ft b. -70 Btu/h ft² c. 633.33 °F
Explanation:
a. Since the rate of heat loss dQ/dt = kAΔT/d where k = thermal conductivity, A = area, ΔT = temperature gradient and d = thickness of insulation.
Now [dQ/dt]/A = kΔT/d
Given that [dQ/dt]/A = rate of heat loss per unit area = -900Btu/h ft², k = 0.10 Btu/h ft ℉(for asbestos), ΔT = T₂ - T₁ = 500 °F - 1600 °F = -1100 °F. We need to find the thickness of asbestos, d. So,
d = kΔT/[dQ/dt]/A
d = 0.10 Btu/h ft ℉ × -1100 °F/-900Btu/h ft²
d = 0.122 ft
b. If the 3 in thick Kaolin is added to the outside of the asbestos, and the outside temperature of the asbestos is 250℉, the heat loss due to the Kaolin is thus
[dQ/dt]/A = k'ΔT'/d'
k' = 0.07 Btu/h ft ℉(for Kaolin), ΔT' = T₂ - T₁ = 250 °F - 500 °F = -250 °F and d' = 3 in = 3/12 ft = 0.25 ft
[dQ/dt]/A = 0.07 Btu/h ft ℉ × -250 °F/0.25 ft
[dQ/dt]/A = -70 Btu/h ft²
c. To find the temperature at the interface, the total heat flux equals the individual heat loss from the asbestos and kaolin. So
[dQ/dt]/A = k(T₂ - T₁)/d + k'(T₃ - T₂)/d' where [dQ/dt]/A = -900Btu/h ft², k = 0.10 Btu/h ft ℉(for asbestos), k' = 0.07 Btu/h ft ℉(for Kaolin), T₁ = 1600 °F, T₂ = unknown and T₃ = 250℉.
Substituting these values into the equation, we have
-900Btu/h ft² = 0.10 Btu/h ft ℉(T₂ - 1600 °F)/0.122 ft + 0.07 Btu/h ft ℉(250℉ - T₂)/0.25 ft
-900Btu/h ft² = 0.82 Btu/h ft ℉(T₂ - 1600 °F) + 0.28Btu/h ft ℉(250℉ - T₂)
-900 °F = 0.82(T₂ - 1600 °F) + 0.28(250℉ - T₂)
-900 °F = 0.82T₂ - 1312°F + 70 °F - 0.28T₂
collecting like terms, we have
-900 °F + 1312°F - 70 °F = 0.82T₂ - 0.28T₂
342 °F = 0.54T₂
Dividing both sides by 0.54, we have
T₂ = 342 °F/0.54
T₂ = 633.33 °F
The thickness of asbestos required is 0.122 ft.
The heat flux will be -70 Btu/h ft²
And the temperature of the interface is 633.33 °F.
(i) the rate of heat loss :
dQ/dt = kAΔT/d
where k = thermal conductivity, A = area, ΔT = temperature gradient, and
d = thickness of insulation.
[dQ/dt]/A = kΔT/d
Given that [dQ/dt]/A = rate of heat loss per unit area = -900Btu/h ft²,
k = 0.10 Btu/h ft ℉,
ΔT = 500 °F - 1600 °F = -1100 °F
We have to find the thickness of asbestos that is d.
d = kΔT/[dQ/dt]/A
d = 0.10 Btu/h ft ℉ × -1100 °F/-900Btu/h ft²
d = 0.122 ft is the thickness required.
(ii) a 3-in thick Kaolin is added to the outside of the asbestos
outside temperature of the asbestos is 250℉,
the heat loss due to the Kaolin is:
[dQ/dt]/A = k'ΔT'/d'
k' = 0.07 Btu/h ft ℉(for Kaolin), ΔT' = T₂ - T₁ = 250 °F - 500 °F = -250 °F and d' = 3 in = 3/12 ft = 0.25 ft
[dQ/dt]/A = 0.07 Btu/h ft ℉ × -250 °F/0.25 ft
[dQ/dt]/A = -70 Btu/h ft²
(iii) temperature at the interface
the total heat flux :
[dQ/dt]/A = k(T₂ - T₁)/d + k'(T₃ - T₂)/d'
where [dQ/dt]/A = -900 Btu/h ft²,
k = 0.10 Btu/h ft ℉ (for asbestos),
k' = 0.07 Btu/h ft ℉ (for Kaolin),
T₁ = 1600 °F and T₃ = 250℉.
-900 = 0.10(T₂ - 1600 °F)/0.122 + 0.07(250℉ - T₂)/0.25
-900 = 0.82(T₂ - 1600 °F) + 0.28(250℉ - T₂)
-900 °F = 0.82(T₂ - 1600 °F) + 0.28(250℉ - T₂)
-900 °F = 0.82T₂ - 1312°F + 70 °F - 0.28T₂
-900 °F + 1312°F - 70 °F = 0.82T₂ - 0.28T₂
342 °F = 0.54T₂
Dividing both sides by 0.54, we have
T₂ = 342 °F/0.54
T₂ = 633.33 °F
