What causes hot spot volcanoes to form?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A volcanic "hotspot" is an area in the mantle from which heat rises as a thermal plume from deep in the Earth. High heat and lower pressure at the base of the lithosphere (tectonic plate) facilitates melting of the rock. This melt, called magma, rises through cracks and erupts to form volcanoes.

A cyclist is riding his bike up a mountain trail. When he starts up the trail, he is going 8 m/s. As the trail gets steeper, he slows to 3 m/s in 1 minute. What is the cyclist's acceleration?Felipe drives his car at a velocity of 28 m/s. He applies the brake, which slows the vehicle down at a rate of 6.4 m/s2 and causes it to slow to a stop. How long does it take for the car to stop? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer:

a)   a = - 0.0833 m / s²,  b)   t = 4.4 s

Explanation:

a) this is a kinematics exercise where the acceleration is along the inclined plane

         v = v₀ - a t

         a = v₀ - v / t

         a = 3 - 8/60

         a = - 0.0833 m / s²

b) in this case the final velocity is zero

         v = v₀ - a t

         0 = v₀ - at

         t = v₀ / a

         t = 28 / 6.4

         t = 4.375 s

         t = 4.4 s

The block at Position A is released from the spring with 100 J of elastic potential energy. How
much kinetic energy does the block have at Position B? Explain how you know.

Answers

Answer:

v = 3.65 m / s

Explanation:

In this exercise we use the conservation of mechanical energy

starting point. Point A compressed spring

          Em₀ = 100 J

final point. Point B uncompressed spring

         Em_f = K = ½ m v²

energy is conserved

         Em₀ = Em₀_f

         100 = ½ m v²

         v = [tex]\sqrt{ \frac{2 \ 100 }{m} }[/tex]

         v = [tex]\sqrt {200/15}[/tex]

         

         v = 3.65 m / s

This is an interference exercise, for the contributory interference is described by the expression

           d sin θ = m λ

let's use trigonometry for the angle

           tan θ = y / L

how the angles are small

          tan θ = sin θ / cos tea = sin θ

 

we substitute

         sin θ = y / L

        d y / L = m λ

         y = m λ L / d

the light fulfills the relation of the waves

       c = λ f

       λ = c / f

       λ = 3 10⁸ /375

       λ = 8 10⁵ m

first order m = 1

let's calculate

        y = 1  8 10⁵  4030 10-9 / 950 10-9

        y = 33.93 10⁵ m

And now we can discover the lenght of the tire circumference. The lenght of a circumference is given by 2×radius×π, and let's consider π=3.14, and let's use the radius in meter (21 cm = 0.21 m):

b. Para 120 V → [tex]R_{2} = 4 \Omega[/tex]

c. Para 110 V → [tex]R_{2} = 2 \Omega[/tex]

Explanation:

a. La tensión se puede calcular mediante la ley de Ohm:

[tex]R_{2} = \frac{V}{I} - R_{1} = \frac{120 V}{5 A} - 20 \Omega = 4 \Omega[/tex]

     

c. La resistencia adicional para operar a 110 voltios es:

You accidentally slide a glass of iced tea off a table that is 0.75 m tall. How
long does it take the tea to hit the ground?
A. 0.54 s
B. 0.39 s
C. 0.23 s
D. 0.47 s

Answers

Answer:

0.39 seconds

Explanation:

Given:

Distance, S = 0.75 m

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m/s^2

Initial (vertical) velocity, u = 0 m/s

Final velocity,

S = ut + (1/2)gt^2

0.75 = 0(t) + (1/2)(9.81)t^2

t^2 = 0.75/(9.81/2) = 0.1529 s^2

t = sqrt(0.1529) s.

= 0.391 s.

The time it takes an object to fall a certain distance is 0.39 s. Therefore, option (B) is correct.

What is kinematioc equation?

To determine how long it takes for the glass of iced tea to hit the ground, we can use the kinematic equation that relates the distance, time, initial velocity, and acceleration of an object under free fall.

Assuming the glass is dropped from rest, its initial velocity is zero, and the acceleration due to gravity is[tex]-9.8 m/s^2[/tex] (negative because it is acting in the opposite direction to the motion).

Using the equation:

[tex]d = 1/2 * a * t^2[/tex]

where d is the distance, a is the acceleration due to gravity, and t is the time, we can solve for t:

[tex]0.75 m = 1/2 * (-9.8 m/s^2) * t^2[/tex]

Simplifying this equation gives:

[tex]t^2 = 0.75 m / (1/2 * 9.8 m/s^2) = 0.153[/tex]

Taking the square root of both sides gives:

[tex]t = sqrt(0.153) = 0.39 s[/tex]

Therefore, the correct option is B. It takes approximately 0.39 seconds for the glass of iced tea to hit the ground.

A rookie quarter back throws a football with an initial upward velocity component of 12.0 m/s and a horizontal velocity component of 20.0 m/s. Ignore resistance. How much time is required for the football to reach the highest point of the trajectory

Answers

Answer:

t = 1.22 s

Explanation:

Given that,

The initial upward velocity component of a football = 12 m/s

The horizontal velocity component is 20 m/s

We need to find the time required for the football to reach the highest point of the trajectory. Let the time is t.

Using first equation of motion to solve it such that,

[tex]v=u+at[/tex]

u is initial velocity

v is final velocity

a = -g

so,

[tex]t=\dfrac{u}{g}\\\\t=\dfrac{12}{9.8}\\\\t=1.22\ s[/tex]

So, the required time taken by the football to reach the highest point is 1.22 seconds.
