6 0

Answer:

a) Gravity pulling the older and denser lithosphere downward.

Explanation:

Earth's crust is made of plates which float on mantle . Plates are of two types

1 ) oceanic plates which are older and heavier 2 ) continental plates which are lighter . Continents are situated on continental plates. Due to relative motion , oceanic plate, because of its  heavy weight,  goes under lighter continental plate . This is called subduction.

A farmer hitches her tractor to a sled loaded with firewood and pulls it a distance
Delvig [45]

(a) The work done by the force applied by the tractor is 79,968.47 J.

(b) The work done by the frictional force on the tractor is 55,977.93 J.

(c) The total work done by  all the forces is 23,990.54 J.

<h3>Work done by the applied force</h3>

The work done by the force applied by the tractor is calculated as follows;

W = Fd cosθ

W = (5000 x 20) x cos(36.9)

W = 79,968.47 J

<h3>Work done by frictional force</h3>

W = Ffd cosθ

W = (3500 x 20) x cos(36.9)

W = 55,977.93 J

<h3>Net work done by all the forces on the tractor</h3>

W(net) = work done by applied force  -  work done by friction force

W(net) = 79,968.47 J -  55,977.93 J

W(net) = 23,990.54 J

We know, Mechanical Energy = K.E. + P.E.
As ball is at ground, P.E. would be zero. But as it is in motion, it must have some K.E. and that is:

K.E. = 1/2 mv²
K.E. = 1/2 * 1 * 2²
K.E. = 4/2
K.E. = 2 J

In short, Your Answer would be Option B

Hope this helps!
