Which of the following would constitute evidence against turcotte's model?
a) the success of gradualist models explaining the surface of mars
b) an even more detailed map of the surface of venus
c) an even longer river of lava on io, a moon of jupiter
d) a few active volcanoes on ishtar terra, a continent on venus
e) a volcano on earth releasing a massive burst of thermal energy all at once

Along, straight wire with 3.0 a current flowing through it produces magnetic field strength 1.0 t at its surface. if the wire has a radius r, where within the wire is the field strength equal to 36.0% of the field strength at the surface of the wire? assume that the current density is uniform throughout the wire

Air is held within a frictionless piston-cylinder container, which is oriented vertically. the mass of the piston is 0.45 kg and the cross-sectional area is 0.0030 m2. initially (state 1) the pressure of the gas is sufficient to support the weight of the piston as well as the force exerted by the atmospheric pressure ( 101.32 kpa). the volume occupied by the air within the cylinder in state 1 is 1.00 liter. one end of a spring (with spring constant k = 1000 n/m) is attached to the top of the piston, while the other end of the spring is attached to a stage that can move vertically. initially the spring is undeflected and therefore exerts no force. then the stage is then moved quasistatically downward a distance of 10.0 cm, at which point the system reaches state 2. the piston-cylinder is not insulated; rather it remains in diathermal contact with the surroundings, which are at a constant temperature of 300 k. what is the change of pressure within the container?

Carbon is allowed to diffuse through a steel plate 15 mm thick. the concentrations of carbon at the two faces are 0.65 and 0.30 kg c/m^3 fe, which are maintained constant. if the preexponential and activation energy are 6.2 x 10-7 m2 /s and 80,000 j/mol, respectively, compute the temperature at which the diffusion flux is 1.43 x 10^-9 kg/m^2 -s.
