Answer:

The Ring of Fire

Explanation:

The ring of fire is also called the Circum-Pacific Belt, it is a path along the pacific ocean consisting of active volcanoes and frequent earthquakes.

It has a length of approximately 40,000 kilometers. It lies on the edge of tectonic plates where the in-earth vibrations and geothermal energies are prone to erupt out.

Ring of fire inhibits about 75% o the earth's volcanoes and 95% of earthquakes occur in this region.

What is the relationship between air pressure and air temperature?
LenKa [72]
The relationship between the two is that air temperature changes the air pressure. For example, as the air warms up the molecules in the air become more active and they use up more individual space even though there is the same<span> number of molecules. This causes an </span>increase<span> in the air pressure.</span>

Can i get help for the parts for the two questions? MATHPHYSSSS
Anestetic [448]

Explanation:

003 (part 1 of 2)

Pressure is force divided by area.

P = F / A

P = (117 kg × 9.8 m/s²) / (2 × (0.05 m)²)

P = 229,320 Pa

003 (part 2 of 2)

There are approximately 6895 Pa in 1 psi.

P = 229,320 Pa × (1 psi / 6895 Pa)

P = 33.3 psi

004 (part 1 of 2)

Since the collisions are elastic, the angle of reflection is the same as the angle of incidence (it bounces off at the same angle).

Impulse = change in momentum

F Δt = m Δv

F (36 s) = (300 × 0.003 kg) (5.2 sin 57° m/s − (-5.2 sin 57° m/s))

F = 0.218 N

004 (part 2 of 2)

Pressure is force over area.

P = F / A

P = 0.218 N / 0.712 m²

P = 0.306 N/m²

Light always travels in a straight line
Licemer1 [7]

 Light travels in straight lines. Once a light has been produced, it will keep moving in a straight line until it hits something else. Shadows are evidence of light traveling in straight lines. An object blocks light so that it can’t reach the surface where we see the shadow.
