egoroff_w [7]3 years ago
5 0

The forces that drive Plate Tectonics include: Convection in the Mantle (heat driven) Ridge push (gravitational force at the spreading ridges) Slab pull (gravitational force in subduction zones)

The question is defective. Nothing on the list is a force.

Subduction, convection, converging, and spreading are all DRIVEN by forces, but no force has been named yet.

ALWAYS use significant figure rules. Remember that these rules apply to all numbers that are measurements. A person walks along
Elza [17]
To find the total number of miles traveled by a person, we add the distance that he has traveled: 3.0 + 5.00 + 4.000. 

Now, to find the accurate number of significant figures when adding measurements, the basic rule for addition is to use the least number of decimal places when reporting the result.

Now, since 3.0 has the least number of decimal places, we report the sum with 1 decimal place and have 12.0 miles as the total distance traveled by the person to reach his destination.

Answer: 12.0 miles

A strontium vapor laser beam is reflected from the surface of a CD onto a wall. The brightest spot is the reflected beam at an a
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

d=1.29*10^{-6}m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Distance of wall from CD D=1.4

Second bright fringe y_2= 0.803 m

Let

Strontium vapor laser has a wavelength \lambda= 431 nm=>431 *10^{-9}m

Generally the equation for Interference is mathematically given by

y=frac{n*\lambda*D}{d}

Where

d=\frac{n*\lambda*D}{y}

d=\frac{2*431 *10^{-9}m*1.4}{0.803}

d=1.29*10^{-6}m
