Answer:

An reversal in the magnetic fields of the north and south pole. This would be the most logical option for me...correct me if I'm wrong.

Explanation:

New seafloor is formed when magma is forced upward toward the surface at a mid-ocean.

shows a conical pendulum, in which the bob (the small object at the lower end of the cord) moves in a horizontal circle at const

Contact [7]

Answer:

a) $T=0.40 N$

b) $T=1.9 s$

Explanation:

Let's find the radius of the circumference first. We know that bob follows a circular path of circumference 0.94 m, it means that the perimeter is 0.94 m.

The perimeter of a circunference is:

$P=2\pi r=0.94$

$r=\frac{0.94}{2\pi}=0.15 m$

Now, we need to find the angle of the pendulum from vertical.

$tan(\alpha)=\frac{r}{L}=\frac{0.15}{0.90}=0.17$

$\alpha=9.44 ^{\circ}$

Let's apply Newton's second law to find the tension.

$\sum F=ma_{c}=m\omega^{2}r$

We use centripetal acceleration here, because we have a circular motion.

The vertical equation of motion will be:

$Tcos(\alpha)=mg$ (1)

The horizontal equation of motion will be:

$Tsin(\alpha)=m\omega^{2}r$ (2)

a) We can find T usinf the equation (1):

$T=\frac {mg}{cos(\alpha)}=\frac{0.04*9.81}{cos(9.44)}=0.40 N$

We can find the angular velocity (ω) from the equation (2):

$\omega=\sqrt{\frac{Tsin(\alpha)}{mr}}=3.31 rad/s$

b) We know that the period is T=2π/ω, therefore:

$T=\frac{2\pi}{\omega}=\frac{2\pi}{3.31}=1.9 s$

I hope it helps you!

A 60.0 kg girl stands up on a stationary floating raft and decides to go into shore. She dives off the 180 kg floating raft with

lord [1]

Momentum, p = m.v
m of the girl = 60.0 kg
m of the boat = 180 kg
v of the girl = 4.0 m/s

A) Momentum of the girl as she is diving:
p = m.v = 60.0 kg * 4.0 m/s = 24.0 N/s

B) momentum of the raft = - momentum of the girl = -24.0 N/s

C) speed of the raft

p = m.v ; v = p/m = 24.0N/s / 180 kg = -0.13 m/s [i.e. in the opposite direction of the girl's velocity]
