Continental drift is one of the earliest ways that geologists thought continents moved over time. It is believed in this theory that the Earth’s movement of the continents are relative to each other. This idea was subsumed by the plate tectonics theory. Now, what is the speed of the continental drift?

Continental drift speed is 1x 10^-9 m/s.
This is equivalent to a speed of:
1 x 10 ^-9 m/s
= 1 x 0. 000 000 000 1 m/s
= 0. 000 000 000 1 m/s

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

W=F.dcos angle

w=42.2 x8.15 x cos40

w=343.93× cos 40

W=343.93 x 0.76

W=261.38 J

Find the velocity. 10 points. Will give brainliest!

BARSIC [14]

Answer:

6.060606...

Explanation:

To figure out velocity, you divide the distance by the time it takes to travel that same distance, then you add your direction to it. So the distance would be 1000m and the time would be 2 minutes and 45 seconds and if you convert the minutes into fractions you would get 165 seconds than you would divide 1000m by 165 seconds and you would get 6.060606... seconds as her average velocity

Define average velocity and instantaneous velocity when are they same

Vlada [557]

Answer:

Look to the explanation

Explanation:

Average velocity: is the average rate of change of displacement with

respect to time

Average velocity is a measure for distance traveled in a given time

We can calculate the average velocity by the rule $v=\frac{s}{t}$

where s is the displacement and t is the time

Instantaneous velocity: is the velocity of an object in motion at a

specific point (x , t)

instantaneous velocity is the limit of velocity as the change in time

approaches zero

We can calculate the instantaneous velocity by the rule $v=\frac{ds}{dt}$

Average velocity is equal to the instantaneous velocity when

acceleration is zero
