What type of tectonic plate boundary exists along the edge of the North American plate near the coast of Northern California, Or

egon, and Washington?
A reverse fault, like the Cascadia subduction zone off the coast of Oregon and Northern California (north of Mendocino California), has relatively deep earthquakes—like the 1964 Alaska earthquake and the 2004 Sumatra earthquake that caused the Boxing Day Tsunami.
True
False
Megathrust earthquakes can be strongest in magnitude—stronger than a San Andreas earthquake like 1906

Use the concept of fields to describe how forces can act from a distance.
Leni [432]
The strength of a field force changes with distance from the sourceof the field-stronger closer to the source, weaker farther away from the source. The source can be either a mass, a charged particle, or a magnetic pole.

B. The role of the moon is greater than that of the sun in the occurrence of tides. ???​
ahrayia [7]

Our sun is 27 million times larger than our moon. Based on its mass, the sun's gravitational attraction to the Earth is more than 177 times greater than that of the moon to the Earth. If tidal forces were based solely on comparative masses, the sun should have a tide-generating force that is 27 million times greater than that of the moon. However, the sun is 390 times further from the Earth than is the moon. Thus, its tide-generating force is reduced by 3903, or about 59 million times less than the moon. Because of these conditions, the sun’s tide-generating force is about half that of the moon.

Two hockey pucks with mass 0.1 kg slide across the ice and collide. Before the collision, puck 1 is going 13 m/s to the east and
ohaa [14]

Answer:

13 m/s east

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the law of conservation of momentum, which states that the total momentum before the collision is equal to the total momentum after the collision:

p_i = p_f \\m u_1 + m u_2 = m v_1 + m v_2

where

m = 0.1 kg is the mass of each puck

u1 = +13 m/s is the initial velocity of puck 1

u2 = -18 m/s is the initial velocity of puck 2 (here I assume the west direction to be the negative direction, so I put a negative sign)

v1 = -18 m/s is the final velocity of puck 1

v2 = ? is the final velocity of puck 2

Simplifying m from the formula and substituting the data, we can find the final velocity of puck 2, v2:

v_2 = u_1 + u_2 - v_1 = +13 m/s + (-18 m/s) - (-18 m/s) = +13 m/s

And the positive sign means that puck 2 is moving east.

A microwave oven operates at 2.4 GHz with an intensity inside the oven of 2300 W/m2 . Part A What is the amplitude of the oscill
Tasya [4]

Answer:

The amplitude of the oscillating electric field is 1316.96 N/C

Explanation:

Given;

frequency of the wave, f = 2.4 Hz

intensity of the wave, I = 2300 W/m²

Amplitude of oscillating magnetic field is given by;

B_o = \sqrt{\frac{2\mu_o I}{c} }

where;

μ₀ is permeability of free space = 4π x 10⁻⁷ m/A

I is intensity of wave

c is speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

B_o = \sqrt{\frac{2*4\pi *10^{-7}*2300}{3*10^8} } \\\\B_o = 4.3899 *10^{-6} \ T

The amplitude of the oscillating electric field is given by;

E₀ = cB₀

E₀ = 3 x 10⁸ x 4.3899 x 10⁻⁶

E₀ = 1316.96 N/C

Therefore, the amplitude of the oscillating electric field is 1316.96 N/C
