- What scientist is credited with developing the continental . . . - Socratic
The credit is mainly given to Alfred Wegener The credit for continental drift is mainly given to Alfred Wegener After noting that Africa and South America seemed to fit perfectly together, he read papers from other scientists to learn more about what he assumed could not be a coincidence In 1915, he formally wrote about his ideas in the book, "The Origin of Continents and Oceans " You can
- What is an oxymoron? + Example - Socratic
An oxymoron is a seemingly contradictory statement On the surface an oxymoron seems to be contradictory, for example, "Child is father of man" On first inspection how can a child be a father of man? Of course a child cannot but a child grows into an adult and may well become a father of a son Another example is "The King is dead, long live the King" Again this seems to be contradictory but
- A man is 1. 65 m tall and standing 28 m away from a tree . . . - Socratic
A man is 1 65 m tall and standing 28 m away from a tree found that the angle of elevation of the top of the tree was 32° How do you find the height of the tree?
- 2. A boy stands 10 m in front of a plane mirror . then be . . . - Socratic
Now,distance between the boy and his image is 7 +7 i e 14 meters So,the image moved to him by (20 −14) or 6 meters Alternatively, From the above discussion,clearly, v + u = x (let)= 2u So, x = 2u Or, dx dt = 2 du dt It means velocity of image should be twice than that of man's velocity,so if the man moves by 3m then the image will move to
- Question #05f5e - Socratic
The tension on cable is the sum of the man's and the elevator's weights Tension=G+ Gelevator When the elevator is accelerated downwards, there is an inertia force in the reverse direction This inertial force reduces the weight on the bathroom scale inertial force=691-499=299N Now ,let use the Newton's second law of motion F = m ⋅ a m:mass
- A man measures a room for a wallpaper border and find he . . . - Socratic
A man measures a room for a wallpaper border and find he needs lengths of 10 ft 6 3 8in , 14 ft 9 3 4 in , 6 ft 5 1 2 in , and 3 ft 2 7 8 in What total length of wallpaper border does he need to purchase?
- Determine true velocity? - Socratic
The man walks northwards with the same speed as the wind So there is a component of the wind velocity that comes from the south in a speed of 6 km h He feels a breeze from the west, so there is also a component from the west In the case of the cyclist, I think it helps to remember that speed is relative to something
- What is Lord of the Flies about? How is the title related . . . - Socratic
It is about man's inability to control his behaviour or emotions if left to his own devices Int he novel the behaviour of the boys, left on the island, degenerate until one of them is murdered William Golding the author was arguing that man if left to his own devices will quickly degenerate into such base and inhuman behavior Therefore a structure is needed where clear norms and values
