Answer:

Option (B)

Explanation:

The new materials are created along the mid-oceanic ridge in a divergent plate boundary.

In a divergent plate motion, the two plates move in the opposite direction. As a result of which the magma rises and comes out to the surface, that immediately cools and forms basaltic rocks and lavas. This adds new materials to the ocean floor along the mid-oceanic ridge. The rocks near the mid-oceanic ridge are the youngest and the rocks that are away from the mid-oceanic ridge are the oldest. This type of plate boundary is also known as the constructive plate boundary.

Hence, the correct answer is option (B).

Alika [10]

Specific heat formula is Q=M*C*ΔT
Q is amount of energy (4786 J)
M is mass (89.0 g)
C is specific heat (unknown, answer will be in J/gºC)
ΔT is the change in temp (89.5-23.0=66.5ºC)
Let's plug it in.
4786=89.0(C)(66.5)
4786=5918.5(C)

C=.8086508406 J/gºC
with sig figs...
C=.809 J/gºC

Which of the following groups contain three elements with stable electron configurations? A. calcium, krypton, argon B. argon, n

patriot [66]

Answer: B. argon, neon, xeno

Explanation:

All these elements listed here are part of the group 18 of the periodic table, which is the last group on the right. All these elements are also called 'noble gases'. Their main property is that they have their last energy shell completely filled with electrons: so they do not easily give/receive electrons to make bonds with other elements. For this reason, these elements have the most stable electron configuration, and they do not react with other elements.

A spaceship travels toward the Earth at a speed of 0.97c. The occupants of the ship are standing with their torsos parallel to t

Ket [755]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply length contraction einstein's relativistic formula to calculate the length observed by observer on the earth . For the observer , increased length will be observed for an observer on the earth

$L=\frac{.5}{\sqrt{1-(\frac{.97c}{c})^2 } }$

$L=\frac{.5}{.24}$

L= 2.05

The length will appear to be 2.05 m . and width will appear to be .5 m to the observer on the spaceship. . It is so because it is length which is moving parallel to the direction of travel. Width will remain unchanged.

Arturiano [62]

- Drawing a free body diagram will help you visualize the different forces acting on an object.

- Find ∑Fy and ∑Fx and solve for unknowns; force due to kinetic friction (fk) and normal force (Fn).

- After solving for unknowns, plug values into equation for kinetic friction, fk = μk • Fn, and solve for μk

Coefficient of kinetic/sliding friction = .3464
