Which explains earthquakes and volcanic eruptions

2 answers:

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

Imagine a negative test charge sitting at the coordinate origin (0,0). Two bunches of positive charges are located on the x-axis

Oxana [17]

Answer:

the total force vector, on test charge is points from origin to point C( 1, 1 )

Explanation:

Given the data in the question, as illustrated in the image below;

from the Image, OA = 1, OB = AC = 1

so using Pythagoras theorem

a² = b² + c²

a = √( b² + c² )

OC = √( OB² + AC² )

we substitute

OC = √( OA² + AC² )

OC = √( 1² + 1² )

OC = √( 1 + 1 )

OC = √2

Coordinate of C( 1, 1 )

Hence, the total force vector, on test charge is points from origin to point C( 1, 1 )

mash [69]

Answer:

4000 km

Explanation:

as we know velocity of electromagnetic wave is c

$c = 3 * 10^8 m/s$

frequency given (f) = 76 Hz

wavelength ?

using

$c =f$ λ

λ = $\frac{c}{f}$

λ = $\frac{3 * 10^8}{76}$ ≈4000 km

so final answer λ = 4000km

A monatomic gas is adiabatically compressed to 0.250 of its initial volume. Do each of the following quantities change?

Len [333]

Answer:

Given that

V2/V1= 0.25

And we know that in adiabatic process

TV^န-1= constant

T1/T2=( V1 /V2)^ န-1

So = ( 1/0.25)^ 0.66= 2.5

Also PV^န= constant

So P1/P2= (V2/V1)^န

= (1/0.25)^1.66 = 9.98

A. RMS speed is

Vrms= √ 3RT/M

But this is also

Vrms 2/Vrms1= (√T2/T1)

Vrms2=√2.5= 1.6vrms1

Lambda=V/4π√2πr²N

Lambda 2/lambda 1= V2/V1 = 0.25

So the mean free path can be inferred to be 0.25 times the first mean free path

C. Using

Eth= 3/2KT

So Eth2/Eth1= T2/T1

Eth2= 2.5Eth1

Using CV= 3/2R

Cvf= Cvi

So molar specific heat constant does not change
