What is the general relationship between earthquake epicenters and volcano positions along the Pacific coast of Mexico and Centr

al America? What sort of plate boundary does this relationship indicate?

Geographically throughout this area of Mexico, Central America Caribbean is located the Cocos plate. This area is scientifically known as the Central American subduction zone.

In order for a volcano to form, there is usually a clash between the technical plates that generates the elevation of the ground and the connection with ducts that release the magma from the earth. If this entire area is a subduction area, it will also be a land stress release area where volcano lines will be formed, that is, it is a convergent plate boundary area

A 0.250 kgkg toy is undergoing SHM on the end of a horizontal spring with force constant 300 N/mN/m. When the toy is 0.0120 mm f

Answer:

(a) The total energy of the object at any point in its motion is 0.0416 J

(b) The amplitude of the motion is 0.0167 m

(c) The maximum speed attained by the object during its motion is 0.577 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the toy, m = 0.25 kg

force constant of the spring, k = 300 N/m

displacement of the toy, x = 0.012 m

speed of the toy, v = 0.4 m/s

(a) The total energy of the object at any point in its motion

E = ¹/₂mv² + ¹/₂kx²

E = ¹/₂ (0.25)(0.4)² + ¹/₂ (300)(0.012)²

E = 0.0416 J

(b) the amplitude of the motion

E = ¹/₂KA²

A = \sqrt{\frac{2E}{K} } \\\\A = \sqrt{\frac{2*0.0416}{300} } \\\\A = 0.0167 \ m

(c) the maximum speed attained by the object during its motion

E = \frac{1}{2} mv_{max}^2\\\\v_{max} = \sqrt{\frac{2E}{m} } \\\\v_{max} = \sqrt{\frac{2*0.0416}{0.25} } \\\\v_{max} = 0.577 \ m/s

A car traveling 90km/hr is 100 m behind a truck traveling 50km/hr. How long will it take the car to reach the truck?
AlexFokin [52]

The faster car behind is catching up/closing the gap/gaining on
the slow truck in front at the rate of (90 - 50) = 40 km/hr.

At that rate, it takes (100 m) / (40,000 m/hr) = 1/400 of an hour
to reach the truck.

(1/400 hour) x (3,600 seconds/hour) = 3600/400 = <em>9 seconds</em>, exactly

Explain how the sun's position in the sky affects the length of shadows
Serggg [28]

A shadow forms on the side of an object that faces away from the sun. The length of shadows changes as Earth rotates. In the morning, the sun is low in the eastern sky and shadows are long. As time passes in the morning, the sun seems to move higher in the sky.
