Which best describes a major characteristic of both volcanoes and earthquakes? they are centered at the poles?
Arturiano [62]
<span>A major characteristic of both volcanoes and earthquakes is that they are located in the same geographic area. Most earthquakes are along the edges of tectonic plates. This is where most volcanoes are too. Most earthquakes directly beneath a volcano are caused by the movement of magma.</span>

A student throws a rock horizontally from the edge of a cliff that is 20 m high. The rock has an initial speed on 10 m/s. If air
fiasKO [112]

The distance of the rock from the base of the cliff is C) 20 m

Explanation:

The motion of the rock in this problem is a projectile motion, which consists of two independent motions:

- A uniform motion (constant velocity) along the horizontal direction

- An accelerated motion with constant acceleration (acceleration of gravity) in the vertical direction

We start by analyzing the vertical motion to find the time of flight of the rock (the time it takes to reach the ground). We can do it by using the suvat equation:

s=u_y t+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where, taking downward as positive direction,

s = 20 m is the vertical displacement of the rock

u_y=0 is the initial vertical velocity

t is the time of flight

a=g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

Solving for t,

t=\sqrt{\frac{2s}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(20)}{9.8}}=2.02 s

Now we can analzye the horizontal motion: the rock moves horizontally with a constant velocity of

v_x = 10 m/s

Therefore, the horizontal distance covered after a time t is

d=v_x t

and substituting t = 2.02 s, we find the final distance of the rock from the base of the cliff:

d=(10)(2.02)=20 m

A bird is about 6.26.2 in.​ long, with a​ thin, dark bill and a​ wide, white wing stripe. If the bird can fly 9292 mi with the w
Trava [24]

Answer:

209 mph

Explanation:

V = Speed of bird in still air

v = Speed of wind = 44 mph

Consider the motion of the bird with the wind

D_{1} = distance traveled with the wind = 9292 mi

t_{1} = time taken to travel the distance with wind

Time taken to travel the distance with wind is given as

t_{1} = \frac{D_{1}}{V + v}

t_{1} = \frac{9292}{V + 44}                              eq-1

Consider the motion of the bird with the wind

D_{2} = distance traveled against the wind = 6060 mi

t_{2} = time taken to travel the distance against wind

Time taken to travel the distance against wind is given as

t_{2} = \frac{D_{2}}{V + v}

t_{2} = \frac{6060}{V - 44}                              eq-2

As per the question,

Time taken with the wind = Time taken against the wind

t_{1} = t_{2}

\frac{9292}{V + 44} = \frac{6060}{V - 44}

(9292) (V - 44) = (6060) (V + 44)

9292V - 408848 = 6060V + 266640

3232V = 675488

V = 209 mph
