Answer:

The correct answer is option D. "Along two converging oceanic plate boundaries".

Explanation:

Island arcs are long chains of active volcanoes distributed along multiple islands with intense seismic activity. These geological structures are most likely formed along two converging oceanic plate boundaries because at these places more seismic activity is found. Most island arcs are the result of the descendent of the lithosphere into the subduction zone.

A european car manufacturer reports that the fuel efficiency of the new microcar is 28.5 km/l highway and 22.0 km/l city. what a
Studentka2010 [4]

We know that:

1 mile = 1.61 km

1 gal = 3.8 L

 

Therefore converting the fuel efficiency rates:

highway = (28.5 km/L) * (1 mile / 1.61 km) * (3.8 L / 1 gal) = 67.27 mile / gal

<span>city = (22.0 km/L) * (1 mile / 1.61 km) * (3.8 L / 1 gal) = 51.93 mile / gal</span>

You jump off a truck and accelerate toward the surface of the Earth. Does the Earth accelerate toward you?
Triss [41]

When we jump from the truck and accelerate towards the earth surface, the earth also accelerates towards us but it's acceleration is very negligible.

To find the answer, we need to know about the acceleration of earth due to the gravitational attraction.

<h3>What's the gravitational force between the earth and a person?</h3>
  • Gravitational attraction force is GMm/r² between the earth and a person.
  • M= mass of the earth

m= mass of the person

r= separation between them.

<h3>What's the acceleration of the earth towards the person when he jumps from a truck?</h3>
  • According to Newton's second law, Force = M×acceleration
  • Acceleration= Force / M
  • Here, Force = GMm/r²,

so acceleration of earth= Gm/r²

  • As this acceleration is very small, so we can't notice it.

Thus, we can conclude that the earth also accelerates towards us.
