What causes earthquakes,tsunami, and volcanic eruptions to happen certain places and not others

1 answer:

5 0

These are all caused by tectonic plate movements. Some areas of the globe are more susceptible to these disasters because they are on or near a fault line where the Earth’s tectonic plates rub against one another, slip beside and under each other, or collide. The places near fault lines are more likely to see earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic activity.

Answer:

Explanation:

Geologists record the seismic waves and study how they travel through Earth. The speed of these seismic waves and the paths they take reveal how the planet is put together. Using data from seismic waves, geologists have learned that Earth's interior is made up of several layers.

A weather balloon has a volume of 90.0 l when it is released from sea level. What

frozen [14]

The final atmospheric pressure is $5.19\cdot 10^4 Pa$

Explanation:

Assuming that the temperature of the air does not change, we can use Boyle's law, which states that for a gas kept at constant temperature, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to its volume. In formula,

$pV=const.$

where

p is the gas pressure

V is the volume

The equation can also be rewritten as

$p_1 V_1 = p_2 V_2$

where in our problem we have:

$p_1= 1.03\cdot 10^5 Pa$ is the initial pressure (the atmospheric pressure at sea level)

$V_1 = 90.0 L$ is the initial volume

$p_2$ is the final pressure

$V_2 = 175.0 L$ is the final volume

Solving the equation for p2, we find the final pressure:

$p_2 = \frac{p_1 V_1}{V_2}=\frac{(1.01\cdot 10^5)(90.0)}{175.0}=5.19\cdot 10^4 Pa$

Urgent! Based on the diagram below, what color will each pigmented paper appear to be to an observer?

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Example A will appear green, while Example B will appear greenish-blue.

Explanation:

The color of an object depend on which part of the visible light it reflects towards the observer. Visible light is made up of seven colors: Violet, Indigo, Blue, Green, Yellow, Orange, and Red (VIBGYOR). If all the colors will be reflected object will appear white. If all the colors are absorbed the object appears black. In example A, only green color is being reflected so it will appear Green.

In example B, green and blue are being reflected so the object will appear a mix of green and blue. This color is cyan (greenish blue).

If the ankylosaurs starts running and accelerates at 1.3m/s^2 for 3 seconds how far does he make it before the velociraptor catc

sveta [45]

Acceleration is the change of velocity, and velocity is the change of distance. The opposite of finding change, or differentiation, is integration.

Acceleration = 1.3 m/s²

Velocity: ∫ 1.3 dx = 1.3x + c m/s

Distance: ∫ 1.3x dx = 1.3x²/2 + c m

Distance run: 1.3*3²/2 = 5.85 m
