One way they are the same is, they both disrupt the biosphere weather breaking or any other thing. Two ways they are different is earth quakes usually happen because a plate has moved or is moving. A tsunami has to do with water being drawn back creating a big tidal wave. Another difference is, an earthquake happens very sudden, you can't predict when they are coming. A tsunami you can predict because of the weather that has been happening lately in that area. 

Sorry for the long answer, but hope this helped. :)

One way they are similar is because an earthquake causes a tsunami so they are connected. two ways they are not is because ones dealing with water and ones dealing with land, and an earthquake is very sudden while a tsunami, you know its coming and you have time to move.

A force that acts on rock to change its shape or volume is called
sineoko [7]

Answer:

The answer would be stress

Explanation:

A force that acts on rock to change its shape or volume is stress. Stress adds energy to the rock. The energy is stored in the rock until it changes shape or breaks. Three different kinds of stress can occur in the crust—tension, compression, and shearing.

A piece of unknown metal weighs 348g. When the metal piece absorbs 6.64kj of heat , its temperature increases from 24.4C to 43.6
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

This metal could be the aluminium with a specific heat of H = 993 \frac{J}{kgC}

Explanation:

A pie of unknown metal presents a mass (M) of 348 g. This metal is heated using energy (E) of 6.64 kJ and the temperature increases from T1 =24.4 to T2 =43.6°C. We can calculate the specific heat (H) of this metal as follows

H = \frac{E}{M*(T2-T1)}

We can replace previously presented data in this equation. After simplifying and converting to adequated units, we found that

H = \frac{6640 J}{0.348 Kg*(43.6-24.4) C} =\frac{6640 J}{6.686 KgC}

Finally, the specific heat of this metal is

H = 993 \frac{J}{kgC}

The aluminium could be the metal, its specific heat is similar to that found in this problem.

Finally,  we can conclude that this metal could be the aluminium with a specific heat of H = 993 \frac{J}{kgC}

During an endothermic phase change, what happens to the potential energy and the kinetic energy?
antiseptic1488 [7]

During endothermic phase change, the potential energy of the system always increases while the kinetic energy of the system remains constant. The potential energy of the reaction increases because energy is been added to the system from the external environment.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • Those are three distinct methods for demonstrating a specific energy condition of an object. They don't affect one another.
  • "Potential Energy" is a relative term showing a release of possible energy to the environment. If we accept its pattern as the overall energy state of a compound, at that point, an endothermic phase change would infer an increase in "potential" as energy is being added to the compound by the system.
  • A phase change will display an increase in the kinetic energy at whatever point the compound is transforming from a high density to a low dense phase. The kinetic energy will decrease at whatever point the compound is transforming from a less dense to high dense phase.
