statement best describes the motion of the plates along these boundaries that causes the earthquakes?
The plates push apart from each other with no subduction.
Subduction occurs with the less-dense plate sinking below the other plate.
Subduction occurs with the more-dense plate sinking below the other plate.
The plates smash together with no subduction.

olganol [36]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the first law of thermodynamics

Q=ΔU+W

Q=heat supplies to the system

ΔU=change in internal energy of the system

W= work done by the gas  by the system

Q =12 KJ

ΔU=U_{2} -U_{1}=(mR/k-1)ΔT

ΔU=\frac{0.3*0.287}{1.4-1}*(460-400)

     =14.924 KJ

Q=ΔU+W

W=-2.924 KJ

W_{net}=W_{air}+W_{paddle}

W_{air}=work done by the air

W_{air}= P(V2-V1)

W_{air}=mRT2-mRT1

W_{air}=mR(T2-T1)=0.138*0.287*(460-300)=

                           =6.33 KJ

W_{net}=W_{air}+W_{paddle}

                      =-2.924-6.33

W_{paddle}=-9.26  KJ

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

2000 kg/m³

Explanation:

Density = (mass[kg])/(volume[m³])

Density of the brick = (.128kg)/(.02•.04•.08) = 2000 kg/m³
