From convection of magma under the earths crust makes the plates slowly move and as they move over time they build up potential energy from the different plates grinding against each other and after so long the plates will lose there grip on each other and release the potential energy they've been building up for so long as kinetic energy causing what you know as an earthquake hope this helps please give brainliest

serious [3.7K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

a) t = 3.81 s

b) vf =  37.4 m/s

Explanation:

Data

height = 71.3 m = 234 feet

t = 0 m/s

vf = ?

vo = 0 m/s

Formula

h = vot + 1/2gt²

vf = vo + gt

Process

a)

               h = vot + 1/2gt²

             71.3 = 0t + 1/2(9.81)t²

             2(71.3) = 9,81t²

              t² = 2(71.3)/9.81

              t² = 14.53

              t = 3.81 s

b)

      vf = 0 + (9.81)(3.81)

      vf = 37.4 m/s

n deep space, sphere A of mass 47 kg is located at the origin of an x axis and sphere B of mass 110 kg is located on the axis at
Volgvan

Answer:

a)-1.014x 10^{-7J

b)3.296 x  10^{-7J

Explanation:

For Sphere A:

mass 'Ma'= 47kg

xa= 0

For sphere B:

mass 'Mb'= 110kg

xb=3.4m

a)the gravitational potential energy is given by

U_{i = -GMaMb/ d

U_{i= - 6.67 x 10^{-11} x 47 x 110/ 3.4 => -1.014x 10^{-7J

b) at d= 0.8m (3.4-2.6) and U_{i=-1.014x 10^{-7J

The sum of potential and kinetic energies must be conserved as the energy is conserved.

K_{i + U_{i= K_{f + U_{f

As sphere starts from rest and sphere A is fixed at its place, therefore K_{i is zero

U_{i= K_{f + U_{f

The final potential energy is

U_{f= - GMaMb/d

Solving for 'K_{f '

K_{f = U_{i + GMaMb/d => -1.014x 10^{-7 + 6.67 x 10^{-11} x 47 x 110/ 0.8

K_{f = 3.296 x  10^{-7J

What explains the dramatically different magnitudes of accelerations that result when a mosquito collides head on with a moving
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Mass of the vehicle and small bug.

Explanation:

  • By Newton's third law, force on bug and vehicle will be same when they collide with each other irrespective of their masses.
  • But according to Newton's second law, force is mass times acceleration. Since the force on each mass is same, the smaller mass will accelerate more and the heavier mass will accelerate less for the same force.
  • Therefore the acceleration of bug will be very greater than vehicle as the mass of the bug is very small as compared to vehicle.
