Answer:

Plate tectonics are responsible for the following events by:-

Explanation:

Plate tectonics are parts of the crust which is moved by the mantle of the Earth.

The Crust is divided into parts called "Tectonic Plates"!

When tectonic plates move they cause some sorts of anomalies, and some of those anomalies are the ones in the question.

When there are two tectonic plates move towards each other, they form mountains, or when wo tectonic plates move away from each other, they cause the sea floor to expand!

Sometimes, they can cause dangerous accidents because of the vibration of the tectonic plates. These vibrations can cause volcanic eruption and tsunamis and Earth quakes.

When these volcanic eruptions occur, they can form underwater volcanoes, and make new islands, which can lead to continent formation!

I hope this answer helps, and I also hope this answer is what you are looking for!

The inner planets formed:
Ivan

Answer:

a. by collisions and mergers of planetesimals.

Explanation:

Inner planets are planets within 1.5 AU distance from the sun. These are called terrestrial planets because they are somewhat similar to Earth, mainly made of rocks.

The main ingredient of these planets are solar nebula and interstellar dust condensation of which leads to formation of small rock particles. These particles come close to each other under in the influence of gravity and other forces. As the mass of the particles increase they form planetesimals, these planetesimals eventually merge to form planets.

A mover does 422 J of work pushing a crate 8.39 m. How much force did he exert?
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

50.3N

Explanation:

Work done = force x distance

422J. = force x 8.39m

÷8.39 both side to get force

Force is 50.3N to 1 d.p.

Check:

50.3 x 8.39=422.017J

Same as 422J to 1 d.p

A carpenter lifts a 10-kg piece of wood to his shoulder 1.5 m above the ground. He then sets the wood on his truck at 1.0 m abov
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

<em>500Joules</em>

Explanation:

Kinetic energy = 1/2mv²

m is the mass of the wood

v is the velocity

Given

Mass = 10kg

Velocity v = 10m/s

Substitute into the formula and get KE

KE = 1/2 * 10 * 10²

KE  = 1/2 * 1000

KE = 500Joules

<em>Hence the kinetic energy of the wood during delivery is 500Joules</em>
