The movement of tectonic plates can cause earthquakes. Some can be major and some can be minor. Both can affect non-earthquake proof buildings though

If the net force acting on an object is 0 N the forces are
3241004551 [841]

If the net force acting on an object is zero, then there <em>may be</em> no forces at all acting on it.  If there ARE any, then they're <em>balanced</em>.

The radius of curvature of a highway exit is r = 93.5 m. The surface of the exit road is horizontal, not banked. (See figure.)
trapecia [35]

Static friction keeps the car from skidding off the road and points toward the center of the curve. By Newton's second law, the car experiences

• net vertical force

F [normal] - F [weight] = 0

• net horizontal force

F [friction] = ma = mv²/r

where v is the tangential speed of the car.

It follows that

F [normal] = F [weight] = mg

and when static friction is maximized at the car's maximum speed,

F [friction] = µ F[normal] = 0.402 mg

Solve for v :

0.402 mg = mv²/r   ⇒   v = √(0.402 g (93.5 m)) ≈ 19.2 m/s

A screw incorporates which other simple machine?
Radda [10]

Answer:

Inclined plane.

Explanation:

Geometrically, a screw is a narrow inclined plane that is wrapped around a cylinder. Like the other simple machines a screw can amplify force; a small rotational force (torque) on the shaft can exert a large axial force on a load.

A screw is a cylinder with a head (solid top) at one end and a pointed tip (like a nail) at the other end.

The mechanical advantage of the screw depends on the space between the threads and the length (and thickness) of the screw. The closer the threads are, the greater the mechanical advantage. It is easier to drive a screw into an object if the thread spacing is smaller.

Name the missing force... Normal <br>   Spring <br>   Tension <br>   Air Resistance
Kay [80]

the missing force is spring force.

The object is hanging from the spring and the spring is stretched by some distance from its equilibrium position.  due to this stretch in the spring , a spring force starts acting on the object trying to regain its equilibrium position.

the spring force is given as

F = kx

where F = spring force ,k = spring constant , x = stretch in the spring.

the spring force balances the weight of the object in down direction and hence keeps the block from falling down.
