Snowshoes enable a person to walk on deep snow because the snowshoesa. decrease the person’s weight on the snow.
b. increase the area over which the person’s weight is distributed.
c. increase the pressure on the snow.
d. increase the buoyancy of the person.

Answers

Answer:

Option B is correct.

Explanation:

Snowshoes has large area of crossection.

As a person wears the snowshoes, the weight of the person distributed over a large area and thus the pressure exerted by the surface due to the weight of the person is less.

The relation among pressure, force and area of crossection is given below.

Pressure = (Force)/(Area of crossection)

As area of crossection is large, pressure is small and thus the person walk on deep snow.

Explain how a rock with vesicular texture could form. Give two examples of rocks with this texture.

Answers

Answer:

Vesicular texture refers to volcanic rocks that contain holes called vesicles that were formed by gas bubbles in lava. This igneous rock is called scoria. The vesicles form from escaping gas bubbles in cooling lava.

A child wants to jump to climb a tree (reaction), he must push the ground to propel himself (action).

A man deflates a balloon; the force with which the air comes out causes the balloon to move from one side to the other.

Explanation:

-Hitting A Wall

-Rowing a boat

-Walking

Explanation:

1.If you hit a Wall with your hands or legs, you get hurt. Why?

Because of Newton's Third Law. You hit the wall with a force and that exact same amount of force is returned by the wall.

2. While Rowing a boat, when you want to move forward on a boat, you paddle by pushing the water backwards, causing you to move forward.

3.While Walking, You push the floor or the surface you are walking on with your toes, And the surface pushes your legs up, helping you to lift your legs up.

People working in nuclear plants wear special monitoring devices to track their exposure to radiation. Radioactive materials used in plants emit particles but they also emit high energy waves that are potentially lethal to human life. These waves are ______ waves

Answers

Answer:

Gamma rays

Explanation:

Gamma rays are usually defined as a type of electromagnetic radiations, that are characterized by the presence of shorter wavelength and higher energy. These are the common radiations that are released from the radioactive substances, where an unstable nucleus of an atom releases an excess amount of energy by undergoing continuous electromagnetic processes.

These are harmful to humans and other organisms, as they are comprised of very high energy and they can easily penetrate through the bodies of humans and other organisms.

These gamma particles are emitted in the power plants, where the people working in it wear a special type of device that helps them in monitoring the exposure to radiation.

It could also be gamma rays i don't really know

When object A collides with object B and bounces back, its final momentum is ____ its initial momentum.a. greater than
c. in the same direction as
b. less than
d. in the opposite direction of

Answers

When object A collides with object B and bounces back, its final momentum is in the opposite direction of its initial momentum. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the last option or option "d". This type of collision is elastic in nature as the ball bounces back and so the momentum has to be in the opposite direction of the initial momentum. 

Answer : (D) " in the opposite direction of "

Explanation :

It is given that when object A collides with object B and bounces back. This shows that the collision is elastic. There are two conditions for elastic collision :

(1) The momentum remains conserved

(2) Kinetic energy is conserved.

We know that momentum is defined as the product of mass and velocity. After bouncing back, the direction of velocity gets changed. So, the final momentum is in the opposite direction of its initial momentum.

So, the correct option is (D).

Bob weighs 80 pounds. He ran up the steps which rose 14 feet. Fred weighs 110 pounds. He ran up the same steps as Bob. If both boys reached the top of the 14-foot stairs at the same time, which boy had the greatest horsepower?

Answers

Bob gained (80lbs x 14ft) = 1120 ft-lbs of energy.

Fred gained (110lbs x 14ft) = 1540 ft-lbs of energy

Since they both took the same amount of time, Fred's power (rate
of doing work) was greater than Bob's power (rate of doing work).

Answer:

Bob gained (80lbs x 14ft) = 1120 ft-lbs of energy.

Fred gained (110lbs x 14ft) = 1540 ft-lbs of energy

Since they both took the same amount of time, Fred's power (rate

of doing work) was greater than Bob's power (rate of doing work).
