After the great 1906 San Francisco earthquake, geolophysicistHarry Fielding Reid examined the displacement of the ground surface along the San Andreas Fault. He concluded that the quake must have been the result of the elastic reboundof the strain energy in the rocks on either side of the fault.
strain energy is 0. 5x force x (compression) X (compression)
There is a lot of force and a bit of compression when rocks squash up against other rocks causing earthquakes
A closed system is a system that is completely isolated from its environment. The physical universe, as we currently understand it, appears to be a closed system. An open system is a system that has flows of information, energy, and/or matter between the system and its environment, and which adapts to the exchange.
D makes the most sense, but you just have to put two and two together and go with your gut feeling, first cross out the answers that don't make sense (A didnt make sense) and go from there! I hope the little bit above me helped you answer or decide :) Good luck!
Answer:
Explanation:
Let the linear charge density of the charged wire is given as
here we can use Gauss law to find the electric field at a distance r from wire
so here we will assume a Gaussian surface of cylinder shape around the wire
so we have
here we have
so we have
I believe the answer is 153.8 m.
