Aside from Earth-quakes and volcanoes, a scientist noticed how all of the continents fit almost PERFECTLY together. And he used that as evidence to prove the theory of continental drift.

I hope this helps! :)

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

72.54 degree west of south

Explanation:

flow = 3.9 m/s north

speed = 11 m/s

to find out

point due west from the current position

solution

we know here water is flowing north and ship must go south at an equal rate so that the velocities cancel and the ship just goes west

so it become like triangle with 3.3 point down and the hypotenuse is 11

so by triangle

hypotenuse ×cos(angle) = adjacent side

11 ×cos(angle) = 3.3

cos(angle) = 0.3

angle = 72.54 degree west of south

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

The force must increase

Explanation:

According to newton's second law "force is the product of mass and acceleration".

Force = mass x acceleration

Now, the mass of the sports car is lesser compared to that of the truck. Therefore, to take both automobiles to the same speed, enough force must be applied by the engine of the truck.

There must be an increase in the force in order to make both automobiles attain the same speed.
