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

As shown in the diagram, two forces act on an object. The forces have magnitudes F1 = 5.7 N and F2 = 1.9 N. What third force wil
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Second option 6.3 N at 162° counterclockwise from  

F1->

Explanation:

Observe the attached image. We must calculate the sum of all the forces in the direction x and in the direction y and equal the sum of the forces to 0.

For the address x we have:

-F_3sin(b) + F_1 = 0

For the address and we have:

-F_3cos(b) + F_2 = 0

The forces F_1 and F_2 are known

F_1 = 5.7\ N\\\\F_2 = 1.9\ N

We have 2 unknowns (F_3 and b) and we have 2 equations.

Now we clear F_3 from the second equation and introduce it into the first equation.

F_3 = \frac{F_2}{cos (b)}

Then

-\frac{F_2}{cos (b)}sin(b)+F_1 = 0\\\\F_1 = \frac{F_2}{cos (b)}sin(b)\\\\F_1 = F_2tan(b)\\\\tan(b) = \frac{F_1}{F_2}\\\\tan(b) = \frac{5.7}{1.9}\\\\tan^{-1}(\frac{5.7}{1.9}) = b\\\\b= 72\°\\\\m = b +90\\\\\m= 162\°

Then we find the value of F_3

F_3 = \frac{F_1}{sin(b)}\\\\F_3 =\frac{5.7}{sin(72\°)}\\\\F_3 = 6.01 N

Finally the answer is 6.3 N at 162° counterclockwise from  

F1->

The girl makes a microscope with a 3.0 cm focal length objective and a 5.0 cm eyepiece. The microscope tube length is 10 cm. Use
saul85 [17]

To solve this problem we will use the concepts related to Magnification. Magnification is the process of enlarging the apparent size, not physical size, of something. This enlargement is quantified by a calculated number also called "magnification".

The overall magnification of microscope is

M = \frac{Nl}{f_ef_0}

Where

N = Near point

l = distance between the object lens and eye lens

f_0= Focal length

f_e= Focal of eyepiece

Given that the minimum distance at which the eye is able to focus is about 25cm we have that N = 25cm

Replacing,

M = \frac{25*10}{3*5}

M = 16.67\approx 17\\

Therefore the correct answer is C.

A subway train accelerates from rest at one station at a rate of 1.30 m/s^2 for half of the distance to the next station, then d
Minchanka [31]

This problems a perfect application for this acceleration formula:

         Distance = (1/2) (acceleration) (time)² .

During the speeding-up half:     1,600 meters = (1/2) (1.3 m/s²) T²
During the slowing-down half:    1,600 meters = (1/2) (1.3 m/s²) T²

Pick either half, and divide each side by  0.65 m/s²: 

                         T² = (1600 m) / (0.65 m/s²)

                         T = square root of (1600 / 0.65) seconds

Time for the total trip between the stations is double that time.

                         T =  2 √(1600/0.65) = <em>99.2 seconds</em>  (rounded)

Why is it important to develop alternative energy sources
Aliun [14]

Answer:

The alternative energy sources are defined as those resources that are used in place of the natural and non-renewable resources. This resources plays an important role in the conservation of natural resources.

The fossil fuels are the resources on which the people are directly dependent. Burning up of these fossils leads to the emission of carbon, which has a direct impact on earth. A small increase in the amount of carbon dioxide can lead to the increase in the surface temperature of earth.

In addition to this, these fossil fuels such as coal, petroleum, oil and natural gases are found to be present in a limited proportion, and it is a very expensive process to obtain these resources, so sustainable development method must be adopted in order to save this natural resources for the future generation.

Some of the examples of alternative resources that are widely used in place of fossil fuels are wind energy, solar energy, tidal energy, biomass energy and bio-fuels.

Thus, it is very important to develop and use alternative resources.
