Nuclear energy is created during a fission or fusion, and is typically used to generate electricity. Nuclear power plants use the fission or fusion reaction to create the nuclear energy, which generates heat. This heat the power plants use to transform the heat energy into electricity. Fission is where large nuclei are split into smaller nuclei. Fusion is where the small nuclei are put together to create large nuclei. These two reactions create nuclear energy.
The lithosphere a combination of the crust and the uppermost brittle layer of the mantle is divided into tectonic plates, including the seven major tectonic plates.
Earthquakes and volcanoes occur along the edges of the plates. ... When plates move apart, they produce new ocean floor as magma from the mantle rises up through volcanoes and deposits new rock along the plate boundaries. In some areas plates slide alongside each other, neither creating nor destroying land.
If the sin 30° = 0.5, then the cos 60° = 0.5
