I think the correct answer would be B. The process of elastic rebound is being shown by the student. It is a theory that is used to explain earthquakes. It focuses on how energy is being spread in times of earthquakes. As the rocks on the fault experiences shift and force, these rocks would be accumulating energy causing it to deform reaching the internal strength and eventually exceeding it. At that moment, a rapid motion would happen along the fault, which releases the energy, then the rocks would go back to its original shape or the undeformed state. This theory is the first theory that sufficiently was able to explain earthquakes.

Help with this I can’t come up with anything
TEA [102]

Answer:

His third law states that for every action (force) in nature there is an equal and opposite reaction. In other words, if object A exerts a force on object B, then object B also exerts an equal and opposite force on object A. ... In reaction, a thrusting force is produced in the opposite direction.

When did ernest rutherford make his discovery
oee [108]

Answer:

1911

Explanation:

"In 1911, he was the first to discover that atoms have a small charged nucleus surrounded by largely empty space, and are circled by tiny electrons, which became known as the Rutherford model (or planetary model) of the atom."

As a roller coaster car crosses the top of a 50-m-diameter loop-the-loop, its apparent weight is the same as its true weight.
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:22.36 m/s

Explanation:

Given

the diameter of loop d=50 m

the radius of loop r=25 m

At the top position, we can write,

weight and Normal reaction combination will provide the centripetal force i.e.

R+W=\frac{mv^2}{r}

R=W\quad \quad [\text{apparent weight =Actual weight}]

2W=2mg=\frac{mv^2}{r}

v=\sqrt{2gr}

v=\sqrt{2\times 10\times 25}

v=22.36\ m/s
