When two ocean plates move away from each other that is called?

Physics
1 answer:
Harrizon [31]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: Convergent or Divergent boundaries

Explanation:

Divergent boundaries occur along spreading centers where plates are moving apart and new crust is created by magma pushing up from the mantle. Picture two giant conveyor belts, facing each other but slowly moving in opposite directions as they transport newly formed oceanic crust away from the ridge crest.

As you watch the video, notice that the size of the tidal bulges varies with the Moon's phase, which depends on its orbital posi
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

Both

A. Low tides are lowest at both full moon and new moon.

B. High tides are highest at both full moon and new moon.

Explanation:

Tides are formed as a consequence of the differentiation of gravity due to the moon across to the Earth sphere.

Since gravity variate with the distance:

F = G\frac{m1\cdot m2}{r^{2}}  (1)

Where m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects that are interacting and r is the distance Where m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects that are interacting and r is the distance between them.

For example, see the image below, point A is closer to the moon than point b and at the same time the center of mass of the Earth will feel more attracted to the moon than point B. Therefore, that creates a tidal bulge in point A and point B.

On the other hand, a full moon it gets when Sun, the Earth and the moon are in a line and the moon is reflecting the sunlight.

When the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun it will be illuminated in its back, so it is not possible to see it from the Earth (that is called new moon).

In those two cases mentioned above, the Sun tidal force contributes to the tidal force of the moon over the earth making high tides higher and low tides lower.

At time t=0 a proton is a distance of 0.360 m from a very large insulating sheet of charge and is moving parallel to the sheet w
Yuki888 [10]

Explanation:

Formula for the electric field due to the infinite sheet of charge is as follows.

               E = \frac{\sigma}{2 \epsilon_{o}}

where,   \sigma = surface charge density

Now, formula for electric force acting on the proton is as follows.

             F = eE

where,    e = charge of the proton

According to the Newton's second law of motion, the net force acting on the proton is as follows.

                       F = ma

                 a = \frac{eE}{m}

                    = \frac{e(\frac{\sigma}{2 \epsilon_{o}})}{m}

                    = \frac{e \sigma}{2m \epsilon_{o}}

According to the kinematic equation, speed of the proton in perpendicular direction is as follows.

              v_{f} = v_{i} + at

                     = (0 m/s) + \frac{e \sigma}{2 m \epsilon_{o}}t

                     = \frac{1.6 \times 10^{-19}C \times 2.34 \times 10^{-9} C/m^{2} \times 5.40 \times 10^{-8}s}{2 \times (1.67 \times 10^{-27} kg)(8.85 \times 10^{-12} C^{2}/Nm^{2}}

                     = 683.974 m/s

Hence, total speed of the proton is as follows.

                v' = \sqrt{(960 m/s)^{2} + (683.974 m/s)^{2}}

                    = \sqrt{921600 + 467820.43}

                    = \sqrt{1389420.43}

                    = 1178.73 m/s

Therefore, we can conclude that speed of the proton is 1178.73 m/s.
