In 1915 the german geologist and meteorologist alfred wegener first proposed the theory of continental drift, which states that parts of the earth's crust slowly drift atop a liquid core. the fossil record supports and gives credibility to the theories of continental drift and plate tectonics.
why was the continental drift theory rejected at the time of its proposal?
a) it did not explain the mechanism causing the movement of continents.
b) it did not explain the mechanism behind the discovery of continents.
c) it did not explain the mechanism behind the existence of continents.
d) it did not explain the mechanism causing the formation of continents.

Asmall object with mass 0.200 kg swings back and forth on the lower end of a light rope that is 3.00 m long. the upper end of the rope is attached to the ceiling. as the object swings through its lowest position, where the rope is vertical, the speed of the object is 5.80 m/s. at this point in the motion, what is the tension in the rope? (use g = 9.80 m/s2.)

Two resistors r1 and r2 may be connected either in series or parallel across an ideal battery with emf ε. we desire the rate of energy dissipation of the parallel combination to be 8.75 times that of the series combination. if r1 = 105 ω, what are the (a) smaller and (b) larger of the two values of r2 that result in that dissipation rate?

The scalar triple product computes the magnitude m of the moment of a force vector f about a specified line. it is m = (r × f) · n, where r is the position vector from the line to the point of application of the force and n is a unit vector in the direction of the line. use matlab to compute the magnitude m for the case where f = [12, −5, 4] n, r = [−3, 5, 2] m, and n = [6, 5, −7].
