Explanation:
Mercury moves the fastest.
So first things first its c. because when two plates collide it causes a earthquake so u can rule those out and of course no not volcano so that's it u only have c left as your answer choice.

The normal stress follows the formula written below:
σ = F/A
There are two types of stress, axial and tangential. Since we are only given with the dimension of the radius (and not the length), the possible stress is axial. So, the area is,
A = πr² = π(0.75 in)² = 1.767 in²
So,
σ = F/A = 500 lb/1.767 in² = <em>282.94 psi</em>
