The best answer is D.

Stress is a force that acts on rock to change its shape or volume. Because stress is a force, it adds energy to the rock, which is stored in the rock until either the rock breaks or changes shape.

There are three kinds of stress, namely shearing, tension and compression.

Shearing- force that pushes a mass of rock in two opposite directions and can cause rock to break and slip apart or change shape.

Tension - force that pulls on the crust, stretching rock so that it becomes thinner in the middle.

Compression - force that squeezes rock until it folds or breaks

Ugo [173]

Answer:

$+1 m/s^2$

Explanation:

Acceleration is given by

$a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}$

where

$\Delta v$ is the change in velocity

$\Delta t$ is the time interval in which the change in velocity occurs

To find the acceleration at 1 second, we can take the data at t = 1 s and t = 2. We find:

$\Delta t = -3 -(-4) = 1 s$

$\Delta v = 2 - (1) = +1 m/s$

So, the acceleration is

$a=\frac{+1}{1}=+1 m/s^2$

please help! find magnitude and direction (the counterclockwise angle with the +x axis) of a vector that is equal to a + c

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Option (2)

Explanation:

From the figure attached,

Horizontal component, $A_x=A\text{Sin}37$

$A_x=12[\text{Sin}(37)]$

= 7.22 m

Vertical component, $A_y=A[\text{Cos}(37)]$

= 9.58 m

Similarly, Horizontal component of vector C,

$C_x$ = C[Cos(60)]

= 6[Cos(60)]

= $\frac{6}{2}$

= 3 m

$C_y=6[\text{Sin}(60)]$

= 5.20 m

Resultant Horizontal component of the vectors A + C,

$R_x=7.22-3=4.22$ m

$R_y=9.58-5.20$ = 4.38 m

Now magnitude of the resultant will be,

From ΔOBC,

$R=\sqrt{(R_x)^{2}+(R_y)^2}$

= $\sqrt{(4.22)^2+(4.38)^2}$

= $\sqrt{17.81+19.18}$

= 6.1 m

Direction of the resultant will be towards vector A.

tan(∠COB) = $\frac{\text{CB}}{\text{OB}}$

= $\frac{R_y}{R_x}$

= $\frac{4.38}{4.22}$

m∠COB = $\text{tan}^{-1}(1.04)$

= 46°

Therefore, magnitude of the resultant vector will be 6.1 m and direction will be 46°.

Option (2) will be the answer.

What is the role of the nervous system?

zimovet [89]

The nervous system is responsible for sending, receiving, and interpreting information from all parts of the body. The nervous system monitors and coordinates internal organ function and responds to changes in the external environment. (The role) The central nervous system consists of the brain and the spinal cord. It is part of the overall nervous system that also includes a complex network of neurons, known as the peripheral nervous system. (Central nervous system)

In an economy, the demand for labor is given by the equation W = 15 - (1/200) L and the supply of labor is given by the equation

mr_godi [17]

Answer:

the equilibrium wage rate is 10 and the equilibrium quantity of labor is 1000 workers

Explanation:

The equilibrium wage rate and the equilibrium quantity of labor are found as the point where the equation of demand intercepts the equation of supply, so the equilibrium quantity of labor is:

$W_{Demand} = W_{Supply}$

15 - (1/200) L = 5 + (1/200) L

15 - 5 = (1/200) L + (1/200) L

10 = (2/200) L

(10*200)/2 = L

1000 = L

Then, the equilibrium wage rate is calculated using either the equation of demand for labor or the equation of supply of labor. If we use the equation of demand for labor, we get:

W = 15 - (1/200) L

W = 15 - (1/200) 1000

W = 10

Finally, the equilibrium wage rate is 10 and the equilibrium quantity of labor is 1000 workers
