Explain in detail what happens to the Earths surface after an earthquake due to the force of tension

Physics

After the two plates Collide the amount of tension is what makes the two plates slip. When two plates slip the Earths surface begins to move because of the slipping of the plates thats when we feel an earth quake. After the earth quake is finshed the tension between the two plates happen again so the Earths surface may be cracked as a result of the immense slipping. But the tension will happen again and devolpe slowly over time. Intill it happens again almost like a cycle

When does carbon dioxide absorb the most heat energy? uring freezing during deposition during sublimation during condensation?
ololo11 [35]
The answer for the given question above would be the third option. Carbon dioxide absorbs the most heat energy during SUBLIMATION. By definition, sublimation is <span>the transition of a substance from the solid to the gas phase without passing through the intermediate liquid phase. Hope this answers your question.</span>

A train starts at rest in a station and accelerates at a constant 0.987 m/s2 for 182 seconds. Then the train decelerates at a co
algol [13]

Answer:

\displaystyle X_T=66.6\ km

Explanation:

<u>Accelerated Motion </u>

When a body changes its speed at a constant rate, i.e. same changes take same times, then it has a constant acceleration. The acceleration can be positive or negative. In the first case, the speed increases, and in the second time, the speed lowers until it eventually stops. The equation for the speed vf at any time t is given by

\displaystyle V_f=V_o+a\ t

where a is the acceleration, and vo is the initial speed .

The train has two different types of motion. It first starts from rest and has a constant acceleration of 0.987 m/s^2 for 182 seconds. Then it brakes with a constant acceleration of -0.321 m/s^2 until it comes to a stop. We need to find the total distance traveled.

The equation for the distance is

\displaystyle X=V_o\ t+\frac{a\ t^2}{2}

Our data is

\displaystyle V_o=0,a=0.987m/s^2,\ t=182\ sec

Let's compute the first distance X1

\displaystyle X_1=0+\frac{0.987\times 182^2}{2}

\displaystyle X_1=16,346.7\ m

Now, we find the speed at the end of the first period of time

\displaystyle V_{f1}=0+0.987\times 182

\displaystyle V_{f1}=179.6\ m/s

That is the speed the train is at the moment it starts to brake. We need to compute the time needed to stop the train, that is, to make vf=0

\displaystyle V_o=179.6,a=-0.321\ m/s^2\ ,V_f=0

\displaystyle t=\frac{v_f-v_o}{a}=\frac{0-179.6}{-0.321}

\displaystyle t=559.5\ sec

Computing the second distance

\displaystyle X_2=179.6\times559.5\ \frac{-0.321\times 559.5^2}{2}

\displaystyle X_2=50,243.2\ m

The total distance is

\displaystyle X_t=x_1+x_2=16,346.7+50,243.2

\displaystyle X_t=66,589.9\ m

\displaystyle \boxed{X_T=66.6\ km}

IP The x and y components of a vector r⃗ are rx = 16 m and ry = -8.5 m , respectively
fiasKO [112]

as it is given that

r_x = 16 m

r_y = -8.5 m

now we will have

\vec r = 16 \hat i - 8.5 \hat j

now the magnitude of this vector is given as

|r| = \sqrt{16^2 + 8.5^2}

|r| = 18 m

now to find the direction we can use

tan\theta = \frac{r_y}{r_x}

tan\theta = \frac{-8.5}{16}

\theta = tan^{-1}(-0.53)

\theta = - 28^0
