The San Andreas fault is an example of Transform tectonic plate boundary. 
<span>The San Andreas fault is a long narrow valley where the plates that make up the fault meet. It consists of the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate. These plates slide past each other when they move. It is also known as a strike-slip fault. As the plates bump and jam against each other as they slide past each other, earthquakes jar the regions around these plates.</span>

baherus [9]

Answer:

823.46 kgm/s

Explanation:

At 9 m above the water before he jumps, Henri LaMothe has a potential energy change, mgh which equals his kinetic energy 1/2mv² just as he reaches the surface of the water.

So, mgh = 1/2mv²

From here, his velocity just as he reaches the surface of the water is

v = √2gh

h = 9 m and g = 9.8 m/s²

v = √(2 × 9 × 9.8) m/s

v = √176.4 m/s

v₁ = 13.28 m/s

So his velocity just as he reaches the surface of the water is 13.28 m/s.

Now he dives into 32 cm = 0.32 m of water and stops so his final velocity v₂ = 0.

So, if we take the upward direction as positive, his initial momentum at the surface of the water is p₁ = -mv₁. His final momentum is p₂ = mv₂.

His momentum change or impulse, J = p₂ - p₁ = mv₂ - (-mv₁) = mv₂ + mv₁. Since m = Henri LaMothe's mass = 62 kg,

J = (62 × 0 + 62 × 13.28) kgm/s = 0 +  823.46 kgm/s = 823.46 kgm/s

So the magnitude of the impulse J of the water on him is 823.46 kgm/s

The density of a material is calculated by:
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

The density of the material is defined as the mass of the material to its volume.

                           ρ = M / V

Explanation:

The density of the material is a scalar quantity.

If the mass and the volume of the material is known the density of the material can be calculated using the formula,

                                     ρ = M / V

The mass of the material can be found using a physical balance.

The volume of a geometrically symmetrical material can be found using the geometrical measurement. For a brick,

                                              V = l x b x h

For non-geometrically shaped material the volume can be found from the displacement method using water.
