Earthquakes and volcanoes occur along the edges of the tectonic plates. Scientists have developed a theory that explains how these giant plates move, thereby creating, destroying, and re-forming continents and oceans over long periods of time. This theory is called the theory of plate tectonics.

Answer: plate tectonics

Explanation: plate tectonics move constantly movement in narrow zones along plate boundaries causes earthquakes and plate tectonics come together and create pressure upon the magma deposit underground forcing it up into a volcanic eruption

Sand falls from an overhead bin and accumulates in a conical pile with a radius that is always threethree times its height. Supp

hammer [34]

Answer:

159241.048 cm³/s

Explanation:

r = Radius = 3×height = 3h

h = height = 16 cm

Height of the pile increases at a rate = $\frac{dh}{dt}=22\ cm/s$

$\text{Volume of cone}=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h\\\Rightarrow V=\frac{1}{3}\pi (3h)^2h\\\Rightarrow V=3\pi h^3$

Differentiating with respect to time

$\frac{dv}{dt}=9\pi h^2\frac{dh}{dt}\\\Rightarrow \frac{dv}{dt}=9\pi 16^2\times 22\\\Rightarrow \frac{dv}{dt}=159241.048\ cm^3/s$

∴ Rate is the sand leaving the bin at that instant is 159241.048 cm³/s

What is it called cavity left behind in the rock after an organism's hard part has dissolved.

Lapatulllka [165]

Mold

Explanation:

A mold is a cavity that is left behind in the rock after an organism hard part has been dissolved. These are important fossils that useful in relative dating.

Some hard parts of organism are preserved in form of molds in soft sediments.
The outline and important details of the hard part is preserved when the mold dissolves away.
Fossil molds are representative on the internal outline of the hard parts of organisms.
They are usually recognized as a part of body fossil in a section.

A small sandbag is dropped from rest from a hovering hot-air balloon. (assume the positive direction is upward.) (a) after 1.5 s

marishachu [46]

solution:

We know v0 = 0, a = 9.8, t = 4.0. We need to solve for v

so,

we use the equation:

v = v0 + at

v = 0 + 9.8*4.0

v = 39.2 m/s

Now we just need to solve for d, so we use the equation:

d = v0t + 1/2*a*t^2

d = 0*4.0 + 1/2*9.8*4.0^2

d = 78.4 m

A 5.0-μC charge is placed at the 0 cm mark of a meter stick and a -4.0 μC charge is placed at the 50 cm mark. At what point on a

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

The distance from charge 5 μ C = 26.45 cm and the distance from - 4 μ C is 23.55 cm.

Explanation:

Given that

q₁ = 5 μ C

q₂ = - 4 μ C

The distance between charges = 50 cm

d= 50 cm

Lets take at distance x from the charge μ C ,the electrical field is zero.

That is why the distance from the charge - 4 μ C = 50 - x cm

We know that ,electric field is given as

$E=K\dfrac{q}{r^2}$

$K\dfrac{5\ \mu}{x^2}=K\dfrac{4\mu }{(50-x)^2}\\\\\dfrac{5}{x^2}=\dfrac{4 }{(50-x)^2}\\\\\\5(50-x)^2=4x^2\\(50-x)^2=0.8x^2\\\\50-x =0.89x\\\ x=\dfrac{50}{1.89}\ cm\\\\\\x=26.45\ cm\\$

Therefore the distance from charge 5 μ C = 26.45 cm and the distance from - 4 μ C is 23.55 cm.
