Answer:

Hello!

Question 1: <u>What is an earthquake?</u> Answer: An earthquake is the shaking of the surface of the Earth resulting from a sudden release of energy in the Earth's lithosphere that creates seismic waves.

Question 2: <u>What are faults?</u> Answer: In geology, a fault is a planar fracture or discontinuity in a volume of rock across which there has been significant displacement as a result of rock-mass movements.

Question 3: <u>Why are earthquakes more likely to occur near faults?</u> Answer: Notice that many plate boundaries do not coincide with coastlines. Earthquakes can also occur far from the edges of plates, along faults. Faults are caused by all that bumping and sliding the plates do. They are more common near the edges of the plates.

Question 4: <u>What happens when the plates grind against each other? </u><u>Answer: </u>An earthquake is caused by the movement of Earth's crustal plates grinding against one another.

Question 5: <u>Is it true that when vibrations reach earth surface as earthquakes occur? </u>Answer: Yes! It's true that it vibrates near the earth surface!

Hope I helped! Ask me anything if you have questions! Brainiest plz. Hope You make a 100%! Have a nice day! -Amelia♥

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:  693 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

A(t) =A_0e^{kt}

k = rate constant

t = time taken for decomposition = 1

A_0 = Initial amount of the reactant

A_t = amount of the reactant left =A_0-\frac{0.1}{100}\times A_0=0.999A_0

0.999A_0=A_0e^{k\times 1}

0.999=e^k

k=-0.001year^{-1}

for half life : t=t_\frac{1}{2}

A_t=\frac{1}{2}A_o

Putting in the values , we get

\frac{1}{2}A_0=A_0e^{-0.001\times t_\frac{1}{2}

t_\frac{1}{2}=693 years

Thus half life of this isotope, to the nearest year is 693.

Find an equation for the line that passes through the points (-5,-3) and (1,-1)
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

y = 1/3x - 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

slope is change in y over the change in x

-1 +3/ 1+5= 2/6= 1/3

y+1 = 1/3(x-1)

y + 1 = 1/3x - 1/3

y = 1/3x - 4/3

Vanyuwa [196]
The amount Reggie collected is equal to x
\frac{360}{.4}= \frac{x}{1}

x =  \frac{360}{.4} =  \frac{360}{ \frac{4}{10} } =  \frac{360*10}{4} = 900

Can someone PLEASE solve this quadratic equation by factoring with the steps? :(
salantis [7]

Answer:

There are no simple factors to this expression.  You can however solve for x, giving you:

x = -1 ± √(y + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

There is no simple pair of factors to this equation, so we'll have to go through the full process.  You can see that by observing that there is no pair of rational numbers that add to make 2 and multiply to make -2.  We can however solve for x:

y = x^2 + 2x - 2\\y + 2 = x^2 + 2x\\y + 3 = x^2 + 2x + 1\\y + 3 = (x + 1)^2\\(x + 1)^2 = y + 3\\x + 1 = \pm \sqrt{y + 3}\\x = -1 \pm \sqrt{y + 3}
