Why was Wegener’s theory of continental drift almost completely discarded?
A. It didn’t explain how continents fit together.
B. It didn’t explain how mountains formed.
C. It wasn’t supported by fossil evidence.
D. It didn’t have a mechanism for how drift occurred.

Which of the following is evidence that the continents were once part of a supercontinent called Pangaea?
A. Island Arcs
B. Deep ocean trenches
C. Glacier scrapings
D. Mid-ocean ridges

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1: The speculation that continents might have 'drifted' was first put forward by Abraham Ortelius in 1596. The concept was independently and more fully developed by Alfred Wegener in 1912, but his hypothesis was rejected by many for lack of any motive mechanism. 2: The most obvious evidence for continental drift is that the continents appear to fit together like pieces of a puzzle. But scientists were skeptical , and Wegener needed additional evidence to support his hypothesis. Glaciers covered large areas that are now parts of these continents.

Answer 2

Answer:

1. D

2. C

Explanation:

1. Although now accepted, the theory of continental drift was rejected for many years, with evidence in its favor considered insufficient. One problem was that a plausible driving force was missing. A second problem was that Wegener's estimate of the speed of continental motion, 250 cm/year, was implausibly high.

2.The most obvious evidence for continental drift is that the continents appear to fit together like pieces of a puzzle. But scientists were skeptical , and Wegener needed additional evidence to support his hypothesis. Glaciers covered large areas that are now parts of these continents.

a train is climbing a gradual hill. the weight of the train creates a downhill force of 150,000 newtons. friction creates an additional force of 25,000 newtons acting in the same direction (downhill). how much force does the train's engine need to create so the train is going uphill at a constant speed?

Answers

Answer:

25000 is the answer

Explanation:

The answer is 25000 hope this helps you

25,000N is the total force, the train's engine need to create so the train is going uphill at a constant speed.

What is force?

A force in physics is an effect that changes the velocity of a mass-moving object, causing it to accelerate from rest, for example. It is a vector quantity since it can be a push or perhaps a pull and always has magnitude and direction. It is denoted by the letter F and is measured in newtons (N), the SI unit of force (formerly P).

The net force exerted on an object approximately equal to the rate where its momentum varies over time, according to the original formulation of Newton's second law.

The force by the train weight Fw= 150,000N

The force creates by the friction Ff=25,000N

total force =Fw + Ff

                = 150,000N+25,000N

                = 25,000N

Therefore, 25,000N is the total force.

A sample of oxygen is collected in a 175 mL container over water at 15°C, and the barometer reads 752.0 torr.
What volume would the dry gas occupy at 770.0 torr and 15°C? (Water vapor pressure at 15°C is 12.8 torr.)

Answers

The volume of dry gas = 168 L

Further explanation

Given

175 ml container at 15°C

P total = 752 torr

water vapour = 12.8 torr

Required

The volume of dry gas

Solution

Dalton's law of partial pressure :

P tot = P₁ + P₂ + P₃ ....  

P total = P O2 + P water

P O2 = 752 - 12.8

P O2 = 739.2 torr

Boyle's Law  

At a fixed temperature, the gas volume is inversely proportional to the pressure applied  

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

739.2 175 = 770 .V₂

V₂ = 168 L

B. H2 + Cl2 → 2HCI
C. Fe + MgO + Mg + FeO
D. 2Na + Cl2 → 2NaCl

Answers

Answer:

A and c

Explanation:

In A the product is added to the reactant, so the real reaction is (2H2O = 2H2+O2).

In B hydrogen and clorine are combined to give hydrochloric acid and 2 is used to balance the reaction in the product, so it's a combination reaction .

In C the case is similar to A , so the real reaction is (Fe+MgO = Mg + FeO ) this is displacement reaction where a more reactive element takes place of a less reactive element .

In D sodium reacting with Chlorine to give sodium chloride ,so we conclude that it's a combination reaction .
