Answer: In a divergent plate boundary, seafloor spreading taking place. It leads to the formation of oceans as new materials are added here along the mid-oceanic ridge. There occur volcanism and shallow-focus earthquakes.

In a convergent plate boundary, two plates collide to form high mountain belts and also volcanic eruptions take place. There occur long chains of volcanic as well as island arcs, in association with deep-focus earthquakes.

In a transform plate boundary, two plates slide past each other, conserving the plates. Shallow-focus earthquakes are generated here.

The earth has experienced various geological processes, such as weathering and erosion of rocks, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, mass extinction events, plate tectonic movements and many more. These continuous processes have configured the present shape of the earth's surface.

For example, the breaking up of the supercontinent Pangea divided into Laurasia and Gondwanaland and subsequently formed the present scenario. This separation of continents has taken place due to the convection current that generates in the mantle.

The Sun has a mass of 1.99x10^30 kg and a radius of 6.96x10^8 m. Calculate the acceleration due to gravity, in meters per second

just olya [345]

Answer:

$g=274\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

Mass of the Sun, $M=1.99\times 10^{30}\ kg$

The radius of the Sun, $r=6.96\times 10^8\ m$

We need to find the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Sun. It is given by the formula as follows :

$g=\dfrac{GM}{r^2}\\\\g=\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 1.99\times 10^{30}}{(6.96\times 10^8)^2}\\\\g=274\ m/s^2$

So, the value of acceleration due to gravity on the Sun is $274\ m/s^2$ .

Nikolas had an idea that he could use the compressed carbon dioxide in a fire extinguisher to propel him on his skateboard.

Vikentia [17]

The Newton’s law Nikolas would use to come up with this idea is the Third law that states:

When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body.

So, in this case, let's name the first Body A which is the skateboard and the second body B which is the compressed carbon dioxide in a fire extinguisher. Then, as shown in the figure below, according to the Third law:

 $FA = -FB$

Zak, helping his mother rearrange the furniture in their living room, moves a 60 kg sofa 5.9 m with a constant force of 40 N. Wh

Len [333]

Answer:236 J

Explanation:

Given

Mass of sofa $m=60 kg$

Displacement $s=5.9 m$

Force $F=40 N$

neglecting Friction

Work done is given by

$W=F\cdot s$

$W=F\cdot s\cos 0$

$W=40\cdot 5.9$

$W=236 J$
