Transform boundaries are classified under which type of fault?

Physics
1 answer:
cluponka [151]2 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.

A uniform electric field is created by two parallel plates separated by a distance of 0.04 m. What is the magnitude of the elect
FromTheMoon [43]

Complete question:

A uniform electric field is created by two parallel plates separated by a

distance of 0.04 m. What is the magnitude of the electric field established

between the plates if the potential of the first plate is +40V and the second

one is -40V?

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric field established between the plates is 2,000 V/m

Explanation:

Given;

distance between two parallel plates, d = 0.04 m

potential between first and second plate, = +40V and -40V respectively

The magnitude of the electric field established between the plates is calculated as;

E = ΔV / d

where;

ΔV is change in potential between two parallel plates;

d is the distance between the plates

ΔV = V₁ -V₂

ΔV = 40 - (-40)

ΔV = 40 + 40

ΔV = 80 V

E = ΔV / d

E = 80 / 0.04

E = 2,000 V/m

Therefore, the magnitude of the electric field established between the plates is 2,000 V/m

What is the magnitude of force required to accelerate a car of mass 1.7 * 10 ^ 3 kg by 4.75 m/s
Gnesinka [82]

What is the magnitude of force required to accelerate a car of mass 1.7 × 10³ kg by 4.75 m/s²

Answer:

F = 8.075 N

Explanation:

Formula for force is;

F = ma

Where;

m is mass

a is acceleration

F = 1.7 × 10³ × 4.75

F = 8.075 N

Which statements describe velocity and acceleration? Check all that apply.
Tom [10]

Velocity is defined by rate of change in the position

which we can also write as

v = \frac{ds}{dt}

while acceleration is defined as rate of change in velocity

a = \frac{dv}{dt}

so acceleration and velocity both are rate of change in position and rate of change in velocity with respect to time respectively

out of all above statement the correct answer must be

<u>Acceleration equals change in velocity divided by time. </u>

Write a hypothesis about how the number of half-lives affects the number of radioactive atoms. Use the "if . . . then . . . beca
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Answer:

Explanation:

The half life is the time taken for half of a radioactive substance to disintegrate.

The shorter the half life, the larger the decay constant and the faster the decay process.

For a very large half life, it would take a very long time for the radioactive nuclide to decay to half.

With each half life reached, a new set of daughter cell is formed. Atoms that have short half life would decay rapidly. Every radionuclide has its own characteristic half-life.

If the number of half-lives increases, then the number of radioactive atoms decreases, because approximately half of the atoms' nuclei decay with each half-life. With this observation, we can hypothesise and conduct experiment to support the assertion that as the number of half-lives increases then the number of radioactive atoms decreases.

The terminal velocity of a person falling in air depends upon the weight and the area of the person facing the fluid. Find the t
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

v=115 m/s

or

v=414 km/h

Explanation:

Given data

A_{area}=0.140m^{2}\\  p_{air}=1.21 kg/m^{3}\\  m_{mass}=80kg

To find

Terminal velocity (in meters per second and kilometers per hour)

Solution

At terminal speed the weight equal the drag force

mg=1/2*C*p_{air}*v^{2}*A_{area}\\   v=\sqrt{\frac{2*m*g}{C**p_{air}*A_{area}} }\\ Where C=0.7\\v=\sqrt{\frac{2*9.8*80}{1.21*0.14*0.7} }\\ v=115m/s

For speed in km/h(kilometers per hour)

To convert m/s to km/h you need to multiply the speed value by 3.6

v=(115*3.6)km/h\\v=414km/h
