Tectonic plates are large segments of the earth's crust that move slowly. Suppose one such plate has an average speed of 6.0 cm
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

1.35×10⁻⁷ m

37.278 mi/My

Explanation:

Speed of the tectonic plate= 6 cm/yr

Converting to seconds

6=\frac{6}{365.25\times 24\times 60\times 60}

So in one second it will move

\frac{6}{365.25\times 24\times 60\times 60}

In 71 seconds

71\times \frac{6}{365.25\times 24\times 60\times 60}=1.35\times 10^{-5}\ cm

The tectonic plate will move 1.35×10⁻⁵ cm or 1.35×10⁻⁷ m

Convert to mi/My

1 cm = 6.213×10⁻⁶ mi

1 M = 10⁶ years

6\times 6.213\times 10^{-6}\times 10^6=37.278\ mi/My

Speed of the tectonic plate is 37.278 mi/My
