Answer:

1. Viscous Drag

2. Slab-Pull Force

3. Ridge-Push Force

Explanation:

The three factors that drive plate motion in the asthenosphere are as follows:

1. Viscous Drag

2. Slab-Pull Force

3. Ridge-Push Force

Asthenosphere is the upper layer of the earth's mantle. This layer lies below the lithosphere  at depths between approximately 80 and 200 km below the surface.

LAB refers to the lithosphere–asthenosphere boundary.

Your teacher has asked you to perform an experiment to see if the shape of objects, alone, affects the motion of objects. Which
lana66690 [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

"Apply the same amount of force to a ball, cube, and pyramid, each of the same mass" would be the best experiment to perform.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Geometry has a major effect on an object's level of drag. As with lift, the drag is linearly proportional to the size of the entity that moves through air. The cross-sectional size of an entity governs the drag form generated by the varying pressure around the object.

It is the force which the air imposes on an object and passes through it. Air resistance drives up as gravity pulses down for a falling object. Size and shape impact air resistance, the greater the area of the surface, the greater the resistance to air. The friction works in the opposite direction of motion, slowing an object's motion.
