<h2>Answer: Nazca plate</h2>

Explanation:

The Nazca plate is an oceanic tectonic plate that is found in the Pacific Ocean off the west coast of South America, specifically in front of the north and central coast of Chile and the entire coastline of Peru, Ecuador and Colombia. This plate is in constant motion, which causes it to sink under the South American (phenomenon known as subduction).

It is mainly because of this subduction process that this region has a lot of seismic activity. Another important aspect is that thanks to these movements, the Andes mountain range and the Peruvian-Chilean fossa originated.

After the driver first notices the obstacle, the car moves uniformly for a time interval t1−t0=t before the brakes are applied.
loris [4]

Answer:

V(t1-t0)

Explanation:

Moving 'uniformly' means constant velocity (speed). the formula for constant speed motion is V = \frac{distance}{time} =( change in position/ change in time)

where,

                  V is speed

given in the statement :

change in time = t =  t1-t0

let the constant speed be ' V '

disance = X = X1-X0

applying the above mentioned formula: V = \frac{X}{t}

V = X/t

X = Vt

the distance X1-X0 = Vt =V(t1-t0)
