Answer: The movement of tectonic plates
Explanation:
Tectonic plates are the part of the earth's crust that both the ocean and land rest on. These plates are constantly moving as a result of currents in the mantle.
These movements cause stress on the surface which has the effect of fracturing rocks and thereby creating/ forming faults in the earth's crust. Sometimes faults form when these plates move away from each other and sometimes they are formed when they push into each other.

Answer:
The solution code is written in Java.
- public class Main {
-
- public static void main(String[] args) {
-
- Scanner inNum = new Scanner(System.in);
- System.out.print("Enter number of toss: ");
- int num = inNum.nextInt();
-
- for(int i=0; i < num; i++){
- System.out.println(toss());
- }
- }
-
- public static String toss(){
- String option[] = {"heads", "tails"};
- Random rand = new Random();
- return option[rand.nextInt(2)];
- }
- }
Explanation:
Firstly, we create a function <em>toss()</em> with no parameter but will return a string (Line 14). Within the function body, create an option array with two elements, "heads" and "tails" (Line 15). Next create a Random object (Line 16) and use <em>nextInt()</em> method to get random value either 0 or 1. Please note we need to pass the value of 2 into <em>nextInx() </em>method to ensure the random value generated is either 0 or 1. We use this generate random value as an index of <em>option </em>array and return either "heads" or "tails" as output (Line 17).
In the main program, we create Scanner object and use it to prompt user to input an number for how many times to toss the coin (Line 6 - 7). Next, we use the input num to control how many times a for loop should run (Line 9). In each round of the loop, call the function <em>toss() </em>and print the output to terminal (Line 10).
Answer:
L= 50000 lb
D = 5000 lb
Explanation:
To maintain a level flight the lift must equal the weight in magnitude.
We know the weight is of 50000 lb, so the lift must be the same.
L = W = 50000 lb
The L/D ratio is 10 so
10 = L/D
D = L/10
D = 50000/10 = 5000 lb
To maintain steady speed the thrust must equal the drag, so
T = D = 5000 lb
