At what type of plate boundary is lithosphere created?

Physics
1 answer:
zloy xaker [14]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

divergent

Explanation:

When two plates are moving away from each other, we call this a divergent plate boundary. Along these boundaries, magma rises from deep within the Earth and erupts to form new crust on the lithosphere. Most divergent plate boundaries are underwater and form submarine mountain ranges called oceanic spreading ridges.

A ball is being rolled by a normal push of 180N. It is opposed by friction which has a force of 61N and air resistance which has
Nina [5.8K]

Resultant force is basically the force left after everything is added.

if a ball is being pushed one one side with 180N, and being pushed on teh opposite side with 84N (I added friction and air resistance since they're acting on the same side), then the resultant force would be:

180N - 84N =<u> 96N</u>   (you can determine whether it's positive or negative based on the direction of the vector)

An 80-kilogram skier slides on waxed skis along a horizontal surface of snow at constant velocity while pushing with his poles.
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

The force F is created by the reaction of the Earth to the thrust of the rods, whereby the thrust is created by a force of action and reaction.

Explanation:

To answer this question, let's write Newton's second law of the two axes

Y Axis  

        Fy + N - W = 0

        Fy + N = W

X axis

       Fx - fr = 0

      Fx = fr

The force F is created by the reaction of the Earth to the thrust of the rods, whereby the thrust is created by a force of action and reaction.

   The direction of this force is along the length of the rods that are in an Angle, where the x and y components of the force come from

In general this force is small because the rubbing of the skis is small

Verdich [7]

Answer:

<em>The fish displacement was -3.4 m</em>

Explanation:

<u>Distance and Displacement</u>

A moving object constantly travels some distance at defined periods of time. The total moved distance is the sum of each individual distance the object traveled. It can be written as:

dtotal=d1+d2+d3+...+dn

This sum is obtained independently of the direction the object moves.

The displacement only takes into consideration the initial and final points of the path defined by the object in its moving. The displacement, unlike distance, is a vectorial magnitude and can be even zero if the object starts and ends the movement at the same point.

The displacement, when the object moves in one axis only is given by:

d = final position - initial position

We know the fist started at 7.8 m from a given reference along the x-axis.

After some undisclosed movements, it ends up at the position 4.4 m. Thus, the displacement is:

d = 4.4 m - 7.8 m = -3.4 m

This means the fish ended up to the left of the position it started from.

The fish displacement was -3.4 m
