Answer:

Plate tectonics is a scientific theory describing the large-scale motion of seven large plates and the movements of a larger number of smaller plates of Earth's lithosphere, since tectonic processes began on Earth between 3.3 and 3.5 billion years ago

Block A, with a mass of 4.0 kg, is moving with a speed of 2.0 m/s while block B , with a mass of 8.0 kg, is moving in the opposi
Anon25 [30]
Consider velocity to the right as positive.

First mass:
m₁ = 4.0 kg
v₁ = 2.0 m/s to the right

Second mass:
m₂ = 8.0 kg
v₂ = -3.0 m/s to the left

Total momentum of the system is
P = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂
   = 4*2 + 8*(-3)
  = -16 (kg-m)/s

Let v (m/s) be the velocity of the center of mass of the 2-block system.

Because momentum of the system is preserved, therefore
(m₁+m₂)v= -16
(4+8 kg)*(v m/s) = -16 (kg-m)/s
v = -1.333 m/s

Answer:
The center of mass is moving at 1.33 m/s to the left.

True/False: If an object stays still, but the observer moves, the Doppler Effect is still observered
Vladimir79 [104]

Well, Harry, what you said is not necessarily true the way you said it. 
But we know what you mean, and what you meant to say is true.

The Doppler effect is observed if there is relative radial motion
between an object and an observer <em><u>AND</u></em> if the object happens
to be putting out sound or light in the observer's direction.
