If san andreas fault slips 2.5 cm each year how far would it separate in 100 years

Physics
1 answer:
nadya68 [22]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

250cm or 2.5m

Explanation:

using direct variation

the length is = l

the time (year) = t

let k be the constant

so he have:

l=kt

2.5=k× 1

k= 2.5

Now in the next statement the 100 is given but not the length so

l=kt

~ l=k× 100 years

But k = 2.5

so :

l= 2.5×100

l= 250 cm

Hence it will be 250cm or 2.5m at which they will get separated

Fittoniya [83]
I don't think that 4m has anything to do with the problem. anyway. here. A___________________B_______C where A is the point that the train was released. B is where the wheel started to stick C is where it stopped From A to B, v=2.5m/s, it takes 2s to go A to B so t=2 AB= v*t = 2.5 * 2 = 5m The train comes to a stop 7.7 m from the point at which it was released so AC=7.7m then BC= AC-AB = 7.7-5 = 2.7m now consider BC v^2=u^2+2as where u is initial speed, in this case is 2.5m/s v is final speed, train stop at C so final speed=0, so v=0 a is acceleration s is displacement, which is BC=2.7m substitute all the number into equation, we have 0^2 = 2.5^2 + 2*a*2.7 0 = 6.25 + 5.4a a = -6.25/5.4 = -1.157 so acceleration is -1.157m/(s^2)

Two forces of 50 N and 30N respectively, are acting on an object. Find the net force (in N) on the object if
xxTIMURxx [149]

A) the forces are acting in the same direction.. B) Together, forces are acting in opposite directions

Answer:

A) 80 N

B) 20 N

Explanation:

A) If the forces acting are in the same direction, then the net force will be a sum of both so many faces..

Thus;

ΣF = 50 + 30

ΣF = 80 N

B) If the forces are acting in the in opposite directions with the larger force pointing in the positive y-axis then, the net force is;

ΣF = 50 - 30

ΣF = 20 N
