What do you think a divergent (constructive) boundary is? How do plates interact with each other?

2 answers:

6 0

Answer:Divergent boundaries are areas where plates move away from each other, forming either mid-oceanic ridges or rift valleys. Tectonic plates can interact in one of three ways. They can move toward one another, or converge; move away from one another, or diverge; or slide past one another, a movement known as transform motion. All plate margins along which plate movement is occurring have one thing in common—earthquakes.

Divergent boundaries are areas where plates move away from each other, forming either mid-oceanic ridges or rift valleys. These are also known as constructive boundaries. ... This causes the oceanic plate to buckle and usually results in a new mid-ocean ridge forming and turning the obduction into subduction.

Hope this helps.

You are pushing a 60 kg block of ice across the ground. You exert a constant force of 9 N on the block of ice. You let go after

kotykmax [81]

Answer: d = 33 cm or 0.33 m

Explanation: In physics, Work is the amount of energy transferred to an object to make it move. It can be expressed by:

W = F.d.cosθ

F is the force applied to the object, d is the displacement and θ is the angle formed between the force and the displacement.

For the ice block, the angle is 0, i.e., force and distance are at the same direction, so:

W = F.d.cos(0)

W = F.d

To determine d:

d = $\frac{W}{F}$

d = $\frac{3}{9}$

d = 0.33 m

The distance d the block ice moved is 33 cm.

A driver notices an upcoming speed limit change from 45 mi/h (20 m/s) to 25 mi/h (11 m/s). If she estimates

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

-2.79 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 20 m/s

v = 11 m/s

Δx = 50 m

Find: a

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

(11 m/s)² = (20 m/s)² + 2a (50 m)

a = -2.79 m/s²

Round as needed.

A tank of gasoline (n = 1.40) is open to the air (n = 1.00). A thin film of liquid floats on the gasoline and has a refractive i

klio [65]

Answer:

1.08

Explanation:

This is the case of interference in thin films in which interference bands are formed due to constructive interference of two reflected light waves , one from upper layer and the other from lower layer . If t be the thickness and μ be the refractive index then

path difference created will be 2μ t.

For light coming from rarer to denser medium , a phase change of π occurs additionally after reflection from denser medium, here, two times, once from upper layer and then from the lower layer , so for constructive interference

path diff = nλ , for minimum t , n =1

path diff = λ

2μ t. = λ

μ = λ / 2t

= 626 / 2 x 290

= 1.08
