What will happen if the density of an object placed in a liquid if the density of the liquid is greater than that of the object?
If the density of the liquid is greater than that of the object, the object will sink. This is because the liquid is denser and exerts a greater buoyant force on the object, causing it to sink until it reaches an equilibrium point where the buoyant force equals the gravitational force.
Why does density pressure and temperature increase as you move towards the center of the earth?
well first the closer you get to earth the closer you get to the mantle which is made of molten rock (magma). And as you go down air pressure from above increase as well which is why it feels like being compressed or inside canned meat. As well as going deeper, in theory, the gravity also increases as well therefore pulling us down even more
How does density depend on the amount of material?
Because density is an intensive property, it does not depend on the amount of material. Density is a ratio between mass and volume, D=M/V. That specific ratio is constant for any material. For example, the smallest sample of aluminum and the largest sample of aluminum have a density of 2.70 g/cm^3 at room temperature. Density does change with temperature because temperature affects volume. The density of all samples of aluminum at its melting point is 2.375 g/cm^3.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium
Is tungsten used in spaceships?
Yes, tungsten is used in spaceships. The hardness and density of tungsten as well as its high melting point make it a good material for rocket nozzles.
A point of highest density in a longitudinal wave?
It's called a compression, and the point of lowest density is called a rarefraction. This logic also applies to transverse waves.
Where is the density of the mantle material greater at point A or point B?
at point A
Where is the density material greater at point b or point c?
the density will be greater at point B because my mommy says
Where is the density material greater at point a or b?
It depends on the material and the location of points a and b.
Where is the temperture of the mantle material greater at point B or point C?
The temperature increases the deeper you go. For earth, the hottest area of the mantle is just before you hit the core. Here it's around 4,000 °C (7,230 °F).
Where is the temperature of the mantle greater point a or point b?
The temperature of the mantle is greater at Point B than Point A. The temperature of the mantle is determined by its depth which is greater at Point B than Point A. The deeper the mantle the hotter and more pressurized it is and so the temperature at Point B will be greater than at Point A.Temperature can also be affected by other factors such as the composition of the mantle and the presence of radioactive elements. In this case since both points are in the same area and have similar composition the temperature will be determined by the depth.To summarize the temperature of the mantle is greater at Point B than Point A because it is deeper and thus more pressurized and hot.
What is a mantle in the earth?
The Earths mantle is the viscous layer between the core and the crust. It is hot because of heat from the core, and part-liquid because it is composed of material with a moderate melting point. This mantle is the source of the volcanic material. Silica is a major component.
When magma forms within the mantle it is most often a result of?
Either the loss of confining pressure causing the melting point of the material to drop below the in-situ temperature or due to the presence of volatiles which enter the mantle where subduction occurs and also lower the melting point of the material.
What causes to the temperature and the density of the material between point b and c?
the heat makes the density less or more dence depending were it is in the earths layers
Is the temperature of the stiffer mantle above or below its mantle point?
is the temperature if the stiffer mantle above or below its melting point
What happens to the temperature and the density of the material between point b and c?
The answer depends on where points b and c are!
What will happen if the density of an object placed in a liquid if the density of the liquid is greater than that of the object?
If the density of the liquid is greater than that of the object, the object will sink. This is because the liquid is denser and exerts a greater buoyant force on the object, causing it to sink until it reaches an equilibrium point where the buoyant force equals the gravitational force.
What makes igneous rocks?
Ultimately a combination of an increase in temperature or a loss of pressure cause the partial melting of mantle material (usually by decompression), or the partial melting of mantle material near a subducting slab due to the release of volatiles into the surrounding material, lowering it's melting temperature to a point where it becomes liquid. This lower density material will then be of higher buoyancy and migrate upwards toward Earth's surface where it will either form an igneous rock intrusion (where the molten magma cools and solidifies under the surface), or an extrusive igneous rock where the lava erupts onto Earth's surface and solidifies.
