Why do earthquakes at divergent plate boundaries not cause tsunamis?

Physics
1 answer:
oksano4ka [1.4K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Earthquakes and volcanoes generate the great majority of tsunamis, and the theory of plate tectonics explains the cause of earthquakes and volcanoes. ... The San Andreas fault in California occurs at this type of plate boundary. At divergent boundaries, plates move away from each other.

Why is it important to select a coordinate system when studying motion?
kvv77 [185]

Motion is detected when an object changes its position with respect to a reference point. Coordinate system is basically used to represent motion. A coordinate system uses numbers or coordinates which represent position of the reference points on a two-dimensional or three-dimensional space. The trajectory of a point or line can be studied on a coordinate system which describes various aspects of motion like velocity, acceleration, distance, displacement etc. Coordinate system is important because it helps to choose a starting point and the direction (which will be positive).

a mass on a spring vibrates in simple harmonic motion at an amplitude of 8.0 cm. if the mass of the object is 0.20kg and the spr
Reil [10]

Answer:

4.06 Hz

Explanation:

For simple harmonic motion, frequency is given by

f=\frac {1}{2\pi}\times \sqrt{\frac {k}{m}} where k is spring constant and m is the mass of the object.

Substituting 0.2 Kg for mass and 130 N/m for k then

f=\frac {1}{2\pi}\times \sqrt{\frac {130}{0.2}}=4.057670803\\f\approx 4.06 Hz

A horizontal spring with stiffness 0.4 N/m has a relaxed length of 11 cm (0.11 m). A mass of 21 grams (0.021 kg) is attached and
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

0.6983 m/s

Explanation:

k = spring constant of the spring = 0.4 N/m

L₀ = Initial length = 11 cm = 0.11 m

L = Final length = 27 cm = 0.27 m

x = stretch in the spring = L - L₀ = 0.27 - 0.11 = 0.16 m

m = mass of the mass attached = 0.021 kg

v = speed of the mass

Using conservation of energy

Kinetic energy of mass = Spring potential energy

(0.5) m v² = (0.5) k x²

m v² = k x²

(0.021) v² = (0.4) (0.16)²

v = 0.6983 m/s

What is a net force on an object that has a mass of 20.0 kg, an applied force of 100 n moving on a surface with a friction coeff
sergiy2304 [10]

The net force on the object as described is; 58.84N

Two forces acting on the object are;

  • The <em>applied force and the frictional force.</em>

In essence; the frictional force can be evaluated as;

  • Frictional force; = coefficient × Weight of object.

  • Frictional force = 0.21 × 20 × 9.8.

  • Frictional force = 41.16N

  • The Net force = Applied force - frictional force

  • Net force = 100 - 41.16N

Net Force = 58.84 N.
