Answer: A volcanic island arc like Hawaii.

Explanation: The Hawaiian island is the most safest place for the people to live in comparison to the other given options.

The plate tectonic movement generates energy due to collision, resulting in sudden release of energy, and seismic waves are produced that propagates and causes earthquake.

Due to the constant collision between the plates, different places at different time experiences earthquake. Near a fault region, earthquakes are very severe, and also near the mid oceanic ridge it is not possible for a person to live. The subduction zones are the region where a denser plate subducts beneath the other, and its impossible for life to exist there.

Thus the most safest place out of all the option is the volcanic islands where numerous people resides. for example, the Hawaiian and Stromboli.

Which term describes the number of joules used per second by a circuit?
jasenka [17]

Answer:

B) Power

Explanation:

The power is defined by the following equation:

P = W / t

where:

W = work = Force * Distance = [Newton] * [meter]

t = time = seconds

The units for work are give en Newton per second, which is equal to Joules

And for power the unit used commonly is Watts, therefore:

Watts = (Joule/second)
