Answer: Earthquakes are usually caused when rock underground suddenly breaks along a fault. This sudden release of energy causes the seismic waves that make the ground shake. When the two blocks of rock or two plates are rubbing against each other, they stick a little. When the rocks break, the earthquake occurs.

Hello!
To solve this problem we need to know the velocity and position of the train as a fucntion of time and acceleration. Since the train started from rest, these are the formulas:
v = at
x = (1/2)a*t^2
From the first equation we can know the time as a division between the velocity and the acceleration:
t = (v/a)
Replacing this value in the second equation we get:
x = (1/2)*a*(v/a)^2 = v^2/(2*a)
Solving for a:
a = (1/2)*(v^2/x)
Now, we know that when x=5.6km =5600 m, the velocity of the train is v =42 m/s
Therefore:
a = (1/2)*(42^2/5600) m/s^2 = 0.1575 m/s^2
So, the answer is c, the acceleration of the train during the first 5.6 km is colse to 0.16m/S^2

Explanation:
1. A rock sitting at the edge of a cliff has potential energy. If the rock falls, the potential energy will be converted to kinetic energy.
2. Tree branches high up in a tree have potential energy because they can fall to the ground.
3. A stick of dynamite has chemical potential energy that would be released when the activation energy from the fuse comes into contact with the chemicals.
4. The food we eat has chemical potential energy because as our body digests it, it provides us with energy for basic metabolism.
5. A stretched spring in a pinball machine has elastic potential energy and can move the steel ball when released.
6. When a crane swings a wrecking ball up to a certain height, it gains more potential energy and has the ability to crash through buildings.
7. A set of double "A" batteries in a remote control car possess chemical potential energy which can supply electricity to run the car.
