The movement of the tectonic plates is caused by convection currents in Earth´s mantle.
Answer: A) convection currents in Earth´s mantle.
Answer: True
Explanation:
Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or the number of electrons that are present in an electrically neutral atom.
Atomic number = Number of protons = number of electrons = 2
Electronic configuration represents the total number of electrons that a neutral element contains. We add all the superscripts to know the number of electrons in an atom.
The electronic configuration will be 
As its duplet is already complete and it has noble gas configuration , it is stable with 2 valence electrons.

Explanation:
How long does the football need to rise?
4.70/3 = 2.35 s
What height will the football reach?
h = ½(9.81)2.35² = 27.1 m
With what speed does the punter need to kick the football?
vy = g•t = 9.81(2.35) = 23.1 m/s
vx = d/t = 56.0/4.70 = 11.9 m/s
v = √(vx²+vy²) = 26.0 m/s
At what angle (θ), with the horizontal, does the punter need to kick the football?
θ = arctan(vy/vx) = 62.7°
Answer:
0.54
Explanation:
Draw a free body diagram. There are 5 forces on the desk:
Weight force mg pulling down
Applied force 24 N pushing down
Normal force Fn pushing up
Applied force 130 N pushing right
Friction force Fnμ pushing left
Sum of the forces in the y direction:
∑F = ma
Fn − mg − 24 = 0
Fn = mg + 24
Fn = (22)(9.8) + 24
Fn = 240
Sum of the forces in the x direction:
∑F = ma
130 − Fnμ = 0
Fnμ = 130
μ = 130 / Fn
μ = 130 / 240
μ = 0.54
The speed of sound in fresh water is 1482m/s.
It says ocean floor, so we should a little bit more accurate, and use the fact that the speed of sound in salt water (that has no bubbles) is 1560m/s.
speed = distance / time
Therefore Distance = speed x time = 1560 x 3.3 = 5158m
The sonar wave is sent out by the boat, reflected off the seafloor, and then is received back at the boat on the surface. So the distance 5148m is the distance from the boat to the sea bottom and then back up to the boat again.
So the depth of the water is half this distance Depth of water = 5148/2=2574m
