I believe the answer is D.

Some people might believe the answer is B, but that is wrong because intraplate earthquakes can occur (even though they are rarer).

Also, only on a few occasions can a rock be deformed by force, but it is possible.

D because even some earthquakes can occur inside plate tectonics

Returning once again to our table top example of a horizontal mass on a low-friction surface with m = 0.254 kg and k = 10.0 N/m

Julli [10]

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 0.254 kg

Spring constant [tex[\omega_{0}= 10.0\ N/m[/tex]

Force = 0.5 N

y = 0.628

We need to calculate the A and d

Using formula of A and d

$A=\dfrac{\dfrac{F_{0}}{m}}{\sqrt{(\omega_{0}^2-\omega^{2})^2+y^2\omega^2}}$ .....(I)

$tan d=\dfrac{y\omega}{(\omega^2-\omega^2)}$ ....(II)

Put the value of $\omega=0.628\ rad/s$ in equation (I) and (II)

$A=\dfrac{\dfrac{0.5}{0.254}}{\sqrt{(10.0^2-0.628)^2+0.628^2\times0.628^2}}$

$A=0.0198$

From equation (II)

$tan d=\dfrac{0.628\times0.628}{((10.0^2-0.628)^2)}$

$d=0.0023$

Put the value of $\omega=3.14\ rad/s$ in equation (I) and (II)

$A=\dfrac{\dfrac{0.5}{0.254}}{\sqrt{(10.0^2-3.14)^2+0.628^2\times3.14^2}}$

$A=0.0203$

From equation (II)

$tan d=\dfrac{0.628\times3.14}{((10.0^2-3.14)^2)}$

$d=0.0120$

Put the value of $\omega=6.28\ rad/s$ in equation (I) and (II)

$A=\dfrac{\dfrac{0.5}{0.254}}{\sqrt{(10.0^2-6.28)^2+0.628^2\times6.28^2}}$

$A=0.0209$

From equation (II)

$tan d=\dfrac{0.628\times6.28}{((10.0^2-6.28)^2)}$

$d=0.0257$

Put the value of $\omega=9.42\ rad/s$ in equation (I) and (II)

$A=\dfrac{\dfrac{0.5}{0.254}}{\sqrt{(10.0^2-9.42)^2+0.628^2\times9.42^2}}$

$A=0.0217$

From equation (II)

$tan d=\dfrac{0.628\times9.42}{((10.0^2-9.42)^2)}$

$d=0.0413$

Hence, This is the required solution.

Un ciclista en una cuesta hacia abajo, marcha a una velocidad de 45km/h aplica los frenos y al cabo de 5s su velocidad se ha red

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

Los 0.0416km

esto se debe a que transponemos la fórmula acelerada y obtenemos Distancia = velocidad × tiempo

también recuerda transponer los segundos a horas viendo que la velocidad es por hora

También tenga en cuenta que no hablo español, así que esto fue extremadamente difícil

What does Newton's third law describe?

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

Newton's third law is: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Explanation:

The statement means that in every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects. The size of the forces on the first object equals the size of the force on the second object.

Determine the acceleration that result when a 12-N net force is applied to a 3-kg object and then to a 6-kg object

user100 [1]

For 3 kg mass: <em>F = $\lpha ma,a$ = $\frac{F}{m}$ = $\frac{12N}{3kg}$ = 4 $\lpha m$ / $s^{2}$ </em>

For 6 kg mass: <em>F = $\lpha ma,a$ = $\frac{F}{m}$ = $\frac{12N}{6kg}$ = 2 $\lpha m$ / $s^{2}$ </em>

Hope this helped, have a great day!~
