Answer:

Explanation:

As per the concept of plate tectonics, The continents are like rock plates moving on the magma underneath it and magnetism is a part of it.

As we know Earth spin on its axis, this interaction of Earth's spin and magnetic material inside the Earth creates a magnetic field from North to South pole.

When hot material inside the Earth cool, it solidify and the magnetic material form crystals which align themselves along the Earth's magnetic field.

Hence by this way Earth's magnetic pole reversal provide evidence for plate tectonics.

how much does a bookshelf weigh if the movers are pushing it at a speed of 10 m/s^2 by applying 100 N force

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

10 kg

Explanation:

Assuming a frictionless surface, then force F=ma where F is the applied force, m is the mass and a is acceleration. Making m the subject of the formula then $m=\frac {F}{a}$

Substituting 100 N for the applied force F and 10 m/s^2 for acceleration a then the value of m will be $m=\frac {100}{10}=10\ kgs$

Therefore, in terms of kilograms, the bookshelf weighs 10 Kg

Aleks [24]

Answer:

B. Any object that has motion has potential energy, wow any object not in motion light with the potential to do work and kinetic.

Explanation:

Potential Energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position relative to others, stresses within itself, electric charge, and other factors. Kinetic Energy is energy which a body possesses by virtue of being in motion.
