When two forces act on an object in opposite directions, the net  force can be calculated by subtracting the two forces.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The net/final force by subtracting the two given opposite forces as asked in the above question.

For example: If you keep a bottle on the table, the downward force subtracted from the upward force will be equal to the net force.

  • If the net force equals zero then the objects will be balanced, otherwise unbalanced.

For example: In the tug of war when two forces are of different units the force with the greater strength will have an advantage, like if the team on the right is stronger than that of left than the rope will move towards the right.

How/why is maintaining healthy soil a social justice issue for our area and community
podryga [215]

Answer:

Social justice aims to give individuals and groups fair treatment and an impartial share of social, environmental and economic benefits. The concept promotes the fair distribution of advantages and disadvantages within a society, regardless of background and status.

Environmental justice deals explicitly with the distribution of environmental benefits and the burdens people experience, at home, at work, or where they learn, play and spend leisure time. Environmental benefits include attractive and extensive greenspace, clean air and water, and investment in pollution abatement and landscape improvements. Environmental burdens include risks and hazards from industrial, transport-generated and municipal pollution.

What is the molecule that formed between B and F?
Alik [6]

Answer:

BF3

Explanation:

For this question, you need to use the number of valence electrons present in each element. Boron is in group 3/13 on the periodic table so you know it has 3 valence electrons while Fluorine is in group 7/17 so it has 7 valence electrons. These elements are both covalent so they will share electrons. All elements in the first three rows want to reach either have 8 valence electrons or zero valence electrons depending on whichever is easier. When B and F interact each Fluorine will only want to take one electron, but Boron wants to get rid of all 3 electrons, so it will bond with 3 Fluorine to get rid of all its valence electrons.

I hope this helps.

Explain the part that the subduction zones play in the cycling of matter between Earth’s crust and mantle.
WARRIOR [948]

Explanation:

The earth’s crust is broken into separate pieces called tectonic plates (Fig. 7.14). Recall that the crust is the solid, rocky, outer shell of the planet. It is composed of two distinctly different types of material: the less-dense continental crust and the more-dense oceanic crust. Both types of crust rest atop solid, upper mantle material. The upper mantle, in turn, floats on a denser layer of lower mantle that is much like thick molten tar.

Each tectonic plate is free-floating and can move independently. Earthquakes and volcanoes are the direct result of the movement of tectonic plates at fault lines. The term fault is used to describe the boundary between tectonic plates. Most of the earthquakes and volcanoes around the Pacific ocean basin—a pattern known as the “ring of fire”—are due to the movement of tectonic plates in this region. Other observable results of short-term plate movement include the gradual widening of the Great Rift lakes in eastern Africa and the rising of the Himalayan Mountain range. The motion of plates can be described in four general patterns:

<p><strong>Fig 7.15.</strong> Diagram of the motion of plates</p>

Collision: when two continental plates are shoved together

Subduction: when one plate plunges beneath another (Fig. 7.15)

Spreading: when two plates are pushed apart (Fig. 7.15)

Transform faulting: when two plates slide past each other (Fig. 7.15)

The rise of the Himalayan Mountain range is due to an ongoing collision of the Indian plate with the Eurasian plate. Earthquakes in California are due to transform fault motion.

Geologists have hypothesized that the movement of tectonic plates is related to convection currents in the earth’s mantle. Convection currents describe the rising, spread, and sinking of gas, liquid, or molten material caused by the application of heat. An example of convection current is shown in Fig. 7.16. Inside a beaker, hot water rises at the point where heat is applied. The hot water moves to the surface, then spreads out and cools. Cooler water sinks to the bottom.

<p><strong>Fig. 7.16.</strong> In this diagram of convection currents in a beaker of liquid, the red arrows represent liquid that is heated by the flame and rises to the surface. At the surface, the liquid cools, and sinks back down (blue arrows).</p><br />

Earth’s solid crust acts as a heat insulator for the hot interior of the planet. Magma is the molten rock below the crust, in the mantle. Tremendous heat and pressure within the earth cause the hot magma to flow in convection currents. These currents cause the movement of the tectonic plates that make up the earth’s crust.
