Answer:
D, the lithosphere. (CRUST AND UPPER MANTLE)
Explanation:
A tectonic plate (also called lithospheric plate) is a massive, irregularly shaped slab of solid rock, generally composed of both continental and oceanic lithosphere. Plate size can vary greatly, from a few hundred to thousands of kilometers across; the Pacific and Antarctic Plates are among the largest. Plate thickness also varies greatly, ranging from less than 15 km for young oceanic lithosphere to about 200 km or more for ancient continental lithosphere (for example, the interior parts of North and South America).

The easiest way to build a unit for energy is to remember that
'work' is energy, and
Work = (force) x (distance).
So energy is (unit of force) x (unit of distance)
[Energy] = (Newton) (meter) .
'Newton' itself is a combination of base units, so
energy is really
(kilogram-meter/sec²) (meter)
= kilogram-meter² / sec² .
That unit is so complicated that it's been given a special,
shorter name:
Joule .
It doesn't matter what kind of energy you're talking about.
Kinetic, potential, nuclear, electromagnetic, food, chemical,
muscle, wind, solar, steam ... they all boil down to Joules.
And if you generate, use, transfer, or consume 1 Joule of
energy every second, then we say that the 'power' is '1 watt'.
The forces that make a passenger speed up, slow down, or
turn a curve are the same forces that have the same effect
on the driver and anybody else in the car.
-- Speeding up . . .
the back of the seat
friction between the car seat and the seat of your pants
-- Slowing down . . .
the seat belt
friction between the car seat and the seat of your pants
-- Turning away from a straight line . . .
the seat belt
friction between the car seat and the seat of your pants
the door, or whatever or whomever you're leaning against
Answer:
When you exert a force on a baseball, there exists an equal and opposite force on the ball therefore, the ball will accelerate in opposite direction.
Explanation:
When you hit a ball with baseball bat, the bat exerts a great force on the ball which causes the ball to accelerate in the opposite direction. It is to be noted that the mass of bat is much greater than mass of ball but the acceleration of ball is also greater than the acceleration of the bat so both bat and ball almost exert same magnitude of force but in opposite direction and as a result both bat and ball accelerate in opposite direction, the deciding factor is of course the relative force applied by the batter and the bowler.
Weight = (mass) x (gravity)
Weight = (7.0 kg) x (gravity)
On Earth, where (gravity) is roughly 10 N/kg . . .
Weight = (7.0 kg) x (roughly 10 N/kg)
Weight = roughly 70 Newtons
That's <em>B </em>on Earth.
It would be some other number on other bodies.
