Answer:

Mid-Ocean Ridges

Explanation:

The mid-ocean ridges is an underwater mountain system formed by diverging oceanic plates.

This mid - ocean ridge is one of the prominent land mass on the earth surface.
At a diverging center, two tectonic plates are pulling apart from one another.
This creates a space which allows for magma to rise up.
The magma then crystallize to form an extensive ridge network known as the mid - oceanic ridge.
The continental expression of the ridge can only be found in Iceland

weegy a 7.5kg block is placed on a table. if its bottom surface area is 0.6m2 , how much pressure does the block exert on the ta

Lesechka [4]

The pressure exerted by the block on the table is given by:

$p=\frac{W}{A}$

where W is the weight of the box, and A is the bottom surface area of the box.

The weight of the box is: $W=mg=(7.5 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=73.6 N$

Substituting into the first equation, we find the pressure:

$p=\frac{W}{A}=\frac{73.6 N}{0.6 m^2}=122.7 Pa$

What's the velocity for each trial? <br> And what's the average velocity?

adelina 88 [10]

Since each time trial is the same the average will be the direct answer, and the formula for velocity is distance divided by time, therefore it will come out to, 1.92307692. Whatever your teacher what the rounding process to be will vary but the straight up answer is there.

klio [65]

Answer:

The acceleration of Abbie is half of the Zak's.

Explanation:

The centripetal acceleration of an object on a circular path is given by :

$a=r\omega^2$

Two children are riding on a merry-go-round that is rotating with a constant angular speed. Let $r_1$ is distance of Abbie from the merry-go-round and $r_2$ is distance of Zak's from the merry-go-round. Acceleration of Abbie is :
