Velocity is both speed and direction
Tectonics is a science that studies tectonic plates. Earth's surface is made of many tectonic plates which move relative to each other. This movement causes earthquakes and can lead to forming a mountain or change in environment.
To determine if Moon has tectonic plates scientists observed Moon's surface for a long time. They were searching for a change in height of a mountins or any changes in surface. If they found this it would mean that Moon has tectonic plates just the Earth does. Only changes they observed were those created by meteorites.
Definitive confirmation that Moon does not have tectonic plates came when people landed on it. Scientific equipment they brought and later the rover that were sent confirmed there are no moonquakes and this led to a conclusion that there are no tectonic plates.
Answer:
1.2703 km
Explanation:
The speed can be calculated using the formula;
Speed (m/s) = distance (m) ÷ time (s)
Based on the information in this question, it took 3.7 seconds for a sound with speed of 1236 km/h to reach John. The distance will be:
Distance = speed × time
However, we need to convert the time in seconds (s) to hour (hr).
1 second = 0.000277778 hour
3.7 seconds = 0.00102778 hours.
Hence,
distance = 1236 × 0.00102778
Distance = 1.2703 km
Answer:
It remains the same.
Explanation:
» At 100°C, it is the boiling point of water. And it starts changing from liquid state to gaseous state
