Answer:

Tectonic plate interactions are of three different basic types: Divergent boundaries are areas where plates move away from each other, forming either mid-oceanic ridges or rift valleys. These are also known as constructive boundaries. Convergent boundaries are areas where plates move toward each other and collide.

Explanation:

Meaning the answer to your question is depending on what type of tectonic plate interaction is occurring will depend on how the plates interact.

Which image illustrates why dark clothing helps to keep you warm on a cool, sunny day?

xeze [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

I suppose it has to do with the way the diagram is drawn. The heat does not reflect which makes both A and B incorrect.

C would have nothing to do with either reflection or refraction.

That only leaves D which is the answer.

When you push a 2.00 kg book resting on a tabletop it takes 4.60 N to start the book sliding. What is the coefficient of static

natali 33 [55]

The coefficient of static friction is 0.234.

Answer:

Explanation:

Frictional force is equal to the product of coefficient of friction and normal force acting on any object.

So here the mass of the object is given as 2 kg, so the normal force will be acting under the influence of acceleration due to gravity.

Normal force = mass * acceleration due to gravity

Normal force = 2 * 9.8 = 19.6 N.

And the frictional force is given as 4.6 N, then

$Coefficient of static friction = Frictional force/Normal force$

Coefficient of static friction = 4.6 N / 19.6 N = 0.234

So the coefficient of static friction is 0.234.
