C) transform

Explanation:

The San Andreas fault is a transform fault margin as a result of the Pacific plate moving horizontally with the North American plate.

There  are different types of plate interactions.

  • At a convergent margin, plates comes together.
  • At a divergent margin, plates moves away from one another.
  • At a transform margin, plates moves past one another horizontally.

The San Andreas is one of those margins in which plates moves past one another horizontally. This is a typical transform margin resulting in series of earthquake activities on the surface.

How much energy does nuclear fusion generate
Pavlova-9 [17]

4. E=mc²

Explanation:

The best approximation of the energy released during a nuclear fusion process can best be determined using the Einstein equation.

  In nuclear reactions, mass and energy are equivalent:

            E = mc²

 E is the energy

  m is the mass

  c is the speed of light

  • In nuclear reactions, some of the mass is converted into the energy.
  • Therefore mass is not conserved in such equations.
  • This is why they release huge amount of energy.
  • From this equation, we know that the more mass loss, the more the energy that would be produced.
  • In a fusion reaction, two light nuclei combines to form a heavier one.
