After the great 1906 San Francisco earthquake, geolophysicistHarry Fielding Reid examined the displacement of the ground surface along the San Andreas Fault. He concluded that the quake must have been the result of the elastic reboundof the strain energy in the rocks on either side of the fault.
strain energy is 0. 5x force x (compression) X (compression)
There is a lot of force and a bit of compression when rocks squash up against other rocks causing earthquakes
Answer:
16 m/s.
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Mass of truck = 5000 Kg
Velocity of truck = 8 m/s
Mass of car = 2500 kg
Velocity of car =..?
Next, we shall determine the momentum of the truck. This can be obtained as follow:
Mass of truck = 5000 Kg
Velocity of truck = 8 m/s
Momentum of truck =.?
Momentum = mass × velocity
Momentum = 5000 × 8
Momentum of the truck = 40000 Kg.m/s
Finally, we shall determine the velocity of the car as follow:
From the question given above, we were told that the car and truck has the same momentum.
This implies that:
Momentum of the truck = momentum of car = 40000 Kg.m/s
Thus, the velocity of the car can be obtained as shown below:
Mass of car = 2500 kg
Momentum of the car = 40000 Kg.m/s
Velocity of car =..?
Momentum = mass × velocity
40000 = 2500 × velocity
Divide both side by 2500
Velocity = 40000/2500
Velocity = 16 m/s
Therefore, the velocity of the car is 16 m/s.
Answer: Fuel is burned in engines to make the motor move.
( Chemical to Mechanical )
Explanation:
during combustion of the diesel ( when the fuel is burnt in the engine of the vehicle, the diesel ( chemical energy ) is transformed or converted to Mechanical energy. This mechanical energy is what the truck uses in moving. Without the combustion of the fuel the vehicle won’t move and the combustion of diesel is achieved through compression unlike that of fuel.
Answer:
What was not required by the Massachusetts Education law of 1642 is;
Children were to be sent to designated schoolmaster for their learning
Explanation:
The Law of 1642 required that parents and master see to it that their children knew the principles of religion and the capital laws of the commonwealth.
The important aspects of the 1642 Law includes;
1) The responsibility for the basic education and literacy of a child are those of the parents and masters of child apprentices
2) Reading and writing competency of all children and servants are a requirement
3) It is the duty of the government, where a parent or master are unable to meet their tutoring responsibility, to see that a child is placed where the basic educational requirement will be met.
The role of a schoolmaster or the setting of a formal school were yet to be formed as at that time.
