The distribution of ________ across the globe provides the primary indicator of boundaries between all tectonic plates.

1 answer:

4 0

The distribution of earthquake across the globe provides the primary indicator of boundaries between all tectonic plates. Earthquakes have a definite distribution pattern. There are three major belts in the world which are frequented by earthquakes of varying intensities and these belts are as under the circus pacific belt, mid Atlantic belt and mid continental belt.

A certain spring stretches 15 cm when a load of 50.0 N is suspended from it. How much will the spring stretch if 78N is suspende

andriy [413]

Answer:

23.4 cm

Explanation:

15 : 50 = x : 78

15*78 = 50x

x = 15*78/50 = 23.4 cm

Which of the following would most likely utilize a particulate control device?

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Correct answer: D). All of the above The particulate control device is a device that is used for the separation of the material that is of a bigger size as compared to filter. In the factory smokestack, the particulate control device filters the particulate matter that is known to cause air pollution. In the vacuum cleaner, a fine dust particle is filtered out. In the laundry dryer, the water and dirt molecule is allowed to pass through it. Hence, all the options are correct.so therefore your answer would be all

If an object doubles in mass, what happens to its momentum? Explain why.

Umnica [9.8K]

Its momentum doubles as well. Considering momentum equals M•V. Regardless of velocity (except if it’s not moving, in that case it doesn’t have any momentum) it will be double.

Consider the power dissipated by the two circuits in the video. The ratio of power dissipation in the parallel circuit to that i

klemol [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

In a series circuit, if we assume that each bulb has a resistance R, the equivalent resistance, is the sum of all the resistances, in this case, 3*R.
The power dissipated in this resistance, can be expressed as follows:

$P_{series} = V*I = V*(\frac{V}{R_{eq}}) = \frac{V^{2}}{3*R} (1)$

In the parallel circuit, the equivalent resistance, is equal to 1/3*R.

The power dissipated in this resistance, can be expressed as follows:

$P_{//} = V*I = V*(\frac{V}{R_{eq}}) = \frac{V^{2}}{\frac{R}{3} } (2)$

In order to take the ratio of both powers, we can divide both sides of (1) and (2) , as follows:

$\frac{P_{//} }{P_{series} } =\frac{V^{2}}{\frac{R}{3}} * \frac{3*R}{V^{2}} = 9$

The ratio of power dissipation in the parallel circuit to that in the series circuit is 9 times.
