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

If the window is 11 m above the ground, find the time the stone is in flight.
rjkz [21]
d=vi*t+(1/2)gt²

d=11 m
g=9.8 m/s²
vi=0 m/s

11 m=0 m/s*t+(1/2)9.8 m/s²t²
11 m=4.9 m/s²t²
t²=11 m / 4.9 m/s²
t=√(11 m / 4.9 m/s²)=1.489... s≈1.5 s

Answer: the time the sone is in flight is 1.5 s

Ron fills a beaker with glycerin (n = 1.473) to a depth of 5.0 cm. if he looks straight down through the glycerin surface, he wi
Tju [1.3M]

By law of refraction we know that image position and object positions are related to each other by following relation

\frac{\mu_1}{h_o} = \frac{\mu_2}{h_i}

here we know that

\mu_1 = 1.473

h_o = 5 cm

\mu_2 = 1

now by above formula

\frac{1.473}{5} = \frac{1}{h_i}

h_i = 3.39 cm

so apparent depth of the bottom is seen by the observer as h = 3.39 cm

Why is centrifugal force is a fake force?<br>​
mash [69]

Answer:

We say fictitious because the actual source of the centrifugal acceleration is somewhat indirect and the experience one has results from the unbalanced forces acting on the reference frame, not a force. Note, it is an acceleration not a force. For instance, imagine yourself on a swing.
