Answer:
9 cm per year
Explanation:
By measuring the length of the volcanic chain and the time interval between the formation of the oldest structure and the youngest structure, an average speed of plate movement can be calculated.
In physical science, pressure quantifies the amount of force that is applied at a certain area. Mathematically, this can be transformed as,
Pressure = Force / Area
It is also to be noted that force is the product of mass and acceleration due to gravity.
Force = mass x acceleration due to gravity
Substituting,
Force = (350 kg) x (9.8 m/s²)
Force = 3430 N
Then, substitute this to the first equation,
Pressure = 3430 N / 1m²
<em>ANSWER: Pressure = 3430 N/m² = 3430 Pa</em>
<h3>
Answer: C) Sunlight</h3>
Coal, uranium, and natural gas are all drawn from the earth. These items are limited in nature and will run out someday. So they are not considered renewable. On the other hand, sunlight is effectively unlimited in terms of how long the sun will last (for a few more billion years or so), which is why sunlight is considered a renewable resource.
