According to the theory of plate tectonics, the lithosphere is separated into sections that are called tectonic plates. These pl

ates move in different directions in response to the forces in Earth’s mantle beneath them. Which of the following correctly matches the plate movement with its description?
convergent boundary; plates move away from one another causing rift valleys and the formation of new crustal material


transform boundary; plates slide past one another in opposite directions causing the formation of faults and earthquakes


divergent boundary; as the plates come together gravity pushes the edge of one plate underneath the edge of a neighboring plate


subduction zone; as the plates come together increased pressure causes the plates to fault and fracture leading to the formation of mountains

a car with a mass of 1200 kilograms is moving around a circular curve at a uniform velocity of 20 meters per second. the centrip
qaws [65]
Well, first of all, a car moving around a circular curve is not moving
with uniform velocity.  The direction of motion is part of velocity, and
the direction is constantly changing on a curve.

The centripetal force that keeps an object moving in a circle is

         Force  =  (mass of the object) · (speed)² / (radius of the circle)

         F  =  m s² / r

We want to know the radius, to rearrange the formula to give us
the radius as a function of everything else.

                                          F     =  m s² / r

Multiply each side by 'r':       F· r  =  m · s²

Divide each side by 'F':            r  =  m · s² / F    

We know all the numbers on the right side,
so we can pluggum in:

                      r  =       m       ·        s²      /     F

                      r  =  (1200 kg) · (20 m/s)² / (6000 N) .

I'm pretty sure you can finish it up from here.

A body with a mass of 2,000 kg is lifted to a height of 15 m within a time of 15 s. Which one of the following statements concer
Aleksandr [31]
<span>So we want to know which statement is true for the body of mass m=2000kg that is lifted to a height of h=15m in t=15 s. Lets calculate each of the following: Gravity force on the body is F=m*g=2000*9.81=19620 N so a is FALSE. Potential energy of the body when it is lifted to the height of 15 m is Ep=m*g*h=2000*9.81*15=294300 J so b is FALSE. Work to lift the body is: W=Fg*h=2000*9.81*15= Ep=294300 J so c is FALSE. Power P=W/t=294300/15=19620 W So d is TRUE. </span>

Differences between looping and simersaulting​
Anika [276]
Somersaulting- for longer distances.It bends the narrow end in the direction it wants to go & takes grip with tentacles. It releases the broad end and straightens up. like this it continues. looping- for shorter distances.


Hope this helps

Dana is on a train traveling at a speed of 20 km/h. Dana walks from the front of the train to the back of the train at a speed o
Maslowich

Answer:

16km/h

Explanation:

Vt=20km/h ---train speed

Vd=4km/h

Donas speed relative to ground is:

Vrd=Vt-Vd

Donas is moving in opposite direction of train .

Vrd=20km/h-4km/h

Vrd=16km/h
