Answer:

Option (A)

Explanation:

The earth's crust is comprised of the lithospheric plate and they are constantly in motion over the viscous layer of asthenosphere due to the generation of convection current in the mantle. It is due to the heat radiated from the interior of the earth.  

These plates were once all together forming a supercontinent named Pangaea. This Pangaea got separated into Laurasia and Gondwanaland.

North America was formed from the separation of the Laurasia about 200 million years back.

This plate motion was proved by some of the evidence put forwarded by Alfred Wegener. The continental drift theory that was modified to Plate tectonic theory was able to explain the mechanism behind this plate motion.

Hence, the correct answer is option (A).

The equation AU = Q - W describes which one of the following?
Kay [80]

Answer:

D. First law of thermodynamics

Explanation:

The first law of thermodynamics refers that energy can be tranferred or changed form one form to another but it can neither be destroyed nor be created. hence, it is also known as law of conservation of energy.

The equation  ΔU = Q − W describes the first law of thermodynamics.

Where

  • U is the internl energy of the system.                                  
  • ΔU is the change in U.                                                          
  • Q refers to the total heat supplied into the system (include both addition and release of energy in the system).              
  • W is the net work done by the system.

Hence, the correct option is D.
