A) GPS monitoring of plate speeds and movements.

Explanation:

The most recent evidence supporting the theory of plate tectonics would be GPS monitoring of plate speeds and movements.

A GPS is a Global Positioning System made up of series of components.

  • Plate tectonics theory is the movement of the earth's lithosphere relative to one another.
  • The recent advances uses a GPS system to monitor real-time movement of the plates.
  • The GPS system is made up of a system of satellite in space that communicates real-times locations to sensors on the earth surface.
  • From the sensors, observatory stations can know and duly observe how plates are moving.

Is a fault or igneous intrusion that cuts across rock layers younger or older than the rocks it disrupts?
Ksju [112]
It is younger because there had to be rock layers already present for that to be possible.

An object moving due to gravity can be described by the motion equation y=y0+v0t−12gt2, where t is time, y is the height at tha
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

t=6.4534 s

Explanation:

This is an exercise where you need to use the concepts of <em>free fall objects</em>

Our <u>knowable variables</u> are initial high, initial velocity and the acceleration due to gravity:

y_{0}=75m

v_{oy} =20m/s

g=9.8 m/s^{2}

At the end of the motion, the <u><em>rock hits the ground</em></u> making the final high y=0m

y=y_{o}+v_{oy}*t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

If we <em>evaluate the equation</em>:

0=75m+(20m/s)t-\frac{1}{2}(9.8m/s^{2})t^{2}

This is a classic form of <u><em>Quadratic Formula</em></u>, we can solve it using:

t=\frac{-b ± \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}

a=-4.9\\b=20\\c=75

t=\frac{-(20) + \sqrt{(20)^{2}-4(-4.9)(75) } }{2(-4.9)}=-2.37s

t=\frac{-(20) - \sqrt{(20)^{2}-4(-4.9)(75) } }{2(-4.9)}=6.4534s

Since the <u><em>time can not be negative</em></u>, the <em>reasonable answer</em> is

t=6.4534s

Hello guys! Can you please help me with physics. I translated it in English. Can yall help me please how much you can!!
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

1. 60m

4. its speed is 20m/s . gravity is 10m/s . 20 ÷ 10 = 2 seconds after these 2 sec are over the velocity will be zero thus it would have fallen.

Explanation:

Am sorry these is what i could answer but i will try to research and get answers for the rest of the questions, hope this helps
