Why do earthquakes and volcanoes occur along continent and ocean boundaries?

jeyben [28]

Earths plates move, creating them to rub together to create earthquakes, and volcanoes occur because magma melts rocks and the pressure is so intense it causes the lava to leak out of the top of a mountain

A driver travels 135 km, east in 1.5 h, stops for 45 minutes for lunch, and then resumes driving for the next 2.0 h through a di

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

<h2>82.353 km/hr</h2>

Explanation:

The driver travels 135 km towards East in 1.5 hr. He stops for 45 min. He again travels 215 km towards East in 2.0 hr.

The total displacement of the driver in the given time is ths sum of individual displacements, because all the displacements are in the same directon.

Total displacement = $135\text{ }km\text{ }East\text{ }+\text{ }0\text{ }km\text{ }+\text{ }215\text{ }km\text{ }East\text{ }=\text{ }350\text{ }km\text{ }East$

Total time travelled = $1.5\text{ }hr\text{ }+\text{ }45\text{ }min\text{ }+\text{ }2.0\text{ }hr\text{ }=\text{ }90\text{ }min\text{ }+\text{ }45\text{ }min\text{ }+\text{ }120\text{ }min\text{ }=\text{ }255\text{ }min\text{ }=\text{ }4\text{ }hr\text{ }15\text{ }min\text{ }=\text{ }4.25\text{ }hr$

$\text{Average velocity = }\dfrac{\text{Total displacement}}{\text{Total time taken}}=\dfrac{350\text{ }km}{4.25\text{ }hr}=82.353\text{ }\frac{km}{hr}$

∴ Driver's average velocity = $82.353\text{ }\frac{km}{hr}$

A green light is submerged 2.70 m beneath the surface of a liquid with an index of refraction 1.31. What is the radius of the ci

Anettt [7]

Answer:

The radius is $r = 3.1905 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The distance beneath the liquid is $d = 2.70 \ m$

The refractive index of the liquid is $n_i = 1.31$

Now the critical value is mathematically represented as

$\theta = sin ^{-1} [\frac{1}{n_i} ]$

substituting values

$\theta = sin ^{-1} [\frac{1}{131} ]$

$\theta = 49.76^o$

Using SOHCAHTOA rule we have that

$tan \theta = \frac{ r}{d}$

=> $r = d * tan \theta$

substituting values

$r = 2.7 * tan (49.76)$

$r = 3.1905 \ m$
