Answer: Mid-ocean ridges are geologically important because they occur along the kind of plate boundary where new ocean floor is created as the plates spread apart. Thus the mid-ocean ridge is also known as a "spreading center" or a "divergent plate boundary." The plates spread apart at rates of 1 cm to 20 cm per year.
Answer:103 pounds
Explanation:
Given
width of window 
height of window 
standard atmospheric pressure 
Also 
Thus Net Force on the window will be the algebraic sum of Force due to outside and inside Pressure .



Answer:
Work done, W = 0.0219 J
Explanation:
Given that,
Force constant of the spring, k = 290 N/m
Compression in the spring, x = 12.3 mm = 0.0123 m
We need to find the work done to compress a spring. The work done in this way is given by :


W = 0.0219 J
So, the work done by the spring is 0.0219 joules. Hence, this is the required solution.
