Answer:
C) Lithostatic pressure
Explanation:
An earthquake is what happens when two blocks of the earth suddenly slip past one another. The surface where they slip is called the fault or fault plane.
In the Earth the pressure due to the weight of overlying rocks is a uniform stress and is referred to as confiningstress. If stress is not equal from all directions then the stress is a differential stress. Three kinds of differential stress occur. Shear stress, which result in slippage and translation.
D. The molecules in water are constantly moving.
They are able to do this because they move around to take whatever shape of the container.
Answer:
a) distance d = 293.36ft
b) acceleration a = 14.67ft/s^2
Explanation:
Acceleration is the change in velocity per unit time.
a = ∆v/t ....1
Given;
Initial velocity vi = 30mph × 5280ft/mile × 1/3600s/h
vi = 44ft/s
Final velocity vf = 70mph × 5280ft/mile × 1/3600s/h
vf = 102.67ft/s
time = 4.0s
From equation 1, acceleration is;
a = ∆v/t = (102.67-44)/4 = 14.67ft/s^2
Distance travelled can be given as;
d = ut + 0.5at^2 .....2
u = 44ft/s
t = 4
a = 14.67ft/s^2
Substituting into the equation 2
d = 44(4) + 0.5(14.67×4^2)
d = 293.36ft
