Answer:
The energy that drives this movement is heat within the earth, this heat comes from two main sources which are;
1) residual heat left over from the formation of our planet billions of years ago.
2) The radioactive decay of naturally occurring chemical elements (notably uranium, thorium, and potassium ) in the earth releases energy in the form of heat. These two sources of heat warm Earth’s mantle and cause it to rise and sink, this rising and sinking creates a convectional movement of earth mantle.
Answer:
The kinetic energy of the cell phone is 9J
Explanation:
The kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of motion.
The kinetic energy is expressed as
KE= 1/2m(v)²
Given data
Mass of cell phone m= 80g--to kg=80/1000= 0.08kg
Velocity of cell phone v= 15m/s
Substituting our given data we have
KE= 1/2*0.08(15)²
KE= (0.08*225)/2
KE=18/2
KE= 9J
C) fault block, the mountain is forming on a FAULT line.
We know, Potential Energy = m * g * h
Here, mass & gravity would be same, but their height will change so it will be:
ΔU = U₂ - U₁
ΔU = mgh₂ - mgh₁
ΔU = mg (h₂ - h₁)
Hope this helps!
