Transform boundaries are classified under which type of fault?

Physics
1 answer:
cluponka [151]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Strike-slip fault

Explanation:

Transform boundaries play the role of connecting the other plate boundary segments.

When the plates are rubbed against each other, they result in enormous amount of stresses which leads to the breaking of the part of a rock causing earthquakes. Places of occurrence of these breaks are termed as faults.

Strike slip faults results from compression which takes place horizontally, but but in this the rock displacement  releases energy and takes place in a horizontal direction which is parallel to the force of compression.

The x component of vector is -27.3 m and the y component is +43.6 m. (a) What is the magnitude of ? (b) What is the angle betwee
lara [203]

Answer:51.44 units

Explanation:

Given

x component of vector is -27.3\hat{i}

y component of vector is 43.6\hat{j}

so position vector is

r=-27.3\hat{i}+43.6\hat{j}

Magnitude of vector is

|r|=\sqrt{27.3^2+43.6^2}

|r|=\sqrt{2646.25}

|r|=51.44 units

Direction

tan\theta =\frac{43.6}{-27.3}=-1.597

vector is in 2nd quadrant thus

180-\theta =57.94

\theta =122.06^{\circ}

A bowling ball is rolling in a straight line toward the pins at a speed of 2.2 m/s. Its momentum is 4.75 kg*m/s. What is the
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer: m= 2.16 kg

Explanation: Momentum is expressed in the following formula:

p = mv

Derive to find m:

m = p / v

= 4.75 kg.m/s / 2.2 m/s

= 2.16 kg

Cancel out m/s and the remaining unit is in kg.

Now imagine a person dragging a 50 kg box along the ground with a rope, as
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

The coefficient of static friction between the box and floor is, μ = 0.061

Explanation:

Given data,

The mass of the box, m = 50 kg

The force exerted by the person, F = 50 N

The time period of motion, t = 10 s

The frictional force acting on the box, f = 30 N

The normal force on the box, η = mg

                                                     = 50 x 9.8

                                                     = 490 N

The coefficient of friction,

                            μ = f/ η

                               = 30 / 490

                               = 0.061

Hence, the coefficient of static friction between the box and floor is, μ = 0.061
