Answer:

Earth's crust, called the lithosphere, consists of 15 to 20 moving tectonic plates. The heat from radioactive processes within the planet's interior causes the plates to move, sometimes toward and sometimes away from each other. This movement is called plate motion, or tectonic shift.

Relate a real life phenomenon with each branch of physics
anastassius [24]

Answer:

Branches of physics with real life examples

In measuring and understanding nuclear fission (a real life phenomenon), all branches of theoretical and experimental physics have to be employed. Physics branches needed in it are, radiation detection and measurement, nuclear physics, statistical physics, thermodynamics, and almost all others.

If the value of the electric field in an electromagnetic wave were doubled then
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Electromagnetic wave are waves formed as a result of the oscillatory activities involving the electric and the magnetic field.

However in an Electromagnetic wave, the electric field and magnetic field carry equal amounts of energy and the magnitude of the electric field is directly proportional to the magnitude of the magnetic field. This direct proportionality gives rise to the speed of light being the constant between the two fields.

When the electric field is doubled then an equal action is to be set for the magnetic field so it doesn’t deviate from its main functions and characteristics.

on a very muddy football field, a 120 kg linebacker tackles an 75 kg halfback. immediately before the collision, the linebacker
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
B4 the tackle: 

<span>The linebacker's momentum = 115 x 8.5 = 977.5 kg m/s north </span>

<span>and the halfback's momentum = 89 x 6.7 = 596.3 kg m/s east </span>


<span>After the tackle they move together with a momentum equal to the vector sum of their separate momentums b4 the tackle </span>

<span>The vector triangle is right angled: </span>

<span>magnitude of final momentum = √(977.5² + 596.3²) = 1145.034 kg m/s </span>

<span>so (115 + 89)v(f) = 1145.034 ←←[b/c p = mv] </span>

<span>v(f) = 5.6 m/s (to 2 sig figs) </span>


<span>direction of v(f) is the same as the direction of the final momentum </span>

<span>so direction of v(f) = arctan (596.3 / 977.5) = N 31° E (to 2 sig figs) </span>


<span>so the velocity of the two players after the tackle is 5.6 m/s in the direction N 31° E </span>




<span>btw ... The direction can be given heaps of different ways ... N 31° E is probably the easiest way to express it when using the vector triangle to find it</span>
