Answer:
a = 6.4 [m/s²]
Explanation:
To solve this problem we must use Newton's second law, which tells us that the sum of forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration. In this way, we have the following equation.
∑F = m*a
where:
∑F = sum of forces (horizontal force = 40 [N] and friction force = 8 [N])
m = mass of the block = 5 [kg]
a = acceleration [m/s²]
Now replacing:
![40-8=5*a\\32 = 5*a\\a=6.4[m/s^{2} ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=40-8%3D5%2Aa%5C%5C32%20%3D%205%2Aa%5C%5Ca%3D6.4%5Bm%2Fs%5E%7B2%7D%20%5D)
Note: the sign of the friction force is negative since this force is acting against the movement of the block.

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.
