THE CHANGE IN EARTH SURFACE IS DUE TO VIBRATION AND COLLISION IN EARTH TECTONIC PLATES

Explanation:

  • VIBRATION is the change in the stable state/equilibrium state caused by increased pressure in a particular object or a surface due to electro magnetic wave
  • COLLISION is the meeting point of two or more surfaces or the objects
  • During earthquake the tectonic plates of the earth surface begins to collide or cause any irregular drastic movements
  • This is due to the vibration caused by earthquake
  • This causes the shake in the upper surface which results in construction damage and calamities
  • This causes drastic change in the surface of the earth.

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

(a) Negative

(b) Positive

Explanation:

Here is a question on sign.

(a) When the rock is going up, it is working against gravity. In this case, the acceleration due to gravity will take a negative value. This is because gravity works or acts downwards

(b) When the rock is coming down, it is actually working with gravity. So in this case, the sign will ne positive

As temperature of this substance rises from 20°C to 50°C, the substance _______ heat and its kinetic energy _________ .
stellarik [79]

Answer:

absorbs heat and its kinetic energy increases.

Explanation:

As we know that heat is defined as the change in the temperature as there is increase in the temperature change then the heat will increase or decrease with respect to increase or decrease in temperature change.

In the given, question temperature is changing from 20° to 50° which means there is increase in the temperature which results in the absorption of heat. And increase temperature will increase the average speed of the molecules which results in increase in kinetic energy.

How is it possible for a single sedimentary rock to contain rock particles animal shells and minerals that crystallized from wat
shutvik [7]
"Sedimentary rocks are types of rock that are formed by the deposition of material at the Earth's surface and within bodies of water. Sedimentation is the collective name for processes that cause mineral and/or organic particles (detritus) to settle and accumulate or minerals to precipitate from a solution."

What is the kinetic energy of an object that has a mass of 12 kg and moves with a velocity of 10 m/s
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

600 J

Explanation:

The formula to find the kinetic energy of an object is \frac{1}{2}mV^2

  • m = mass in kg
  • V = velocity in m/s
  • KE is measured in Joules just as all other forms of energy.

Now, let's plug in the variables we're given and simplify.

  • \frac{1}{2}(12)(10)^2
  • \frac{1}{2}(12)(100)
  • (6)(100)
  • (600)

Thus, the answer is 600 Joules.
