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>

A vehicle moving with a uniform a acceleration of 2m/s and has a velocity of 4m/s at a certain time .
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

1 second later the vehicle's velocity will be:

v(1)= 6\,\,\frac{m}{s} \\

5 seconds later the vehicle's velocity will be:

v(5)=14\,\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

Recall the formula for the velocity of an object under constant accelerated motion (with acceleration "a"):

v(t)=v_0+a\,t

Therefore, in this case v_0=4\,\,\frac{m}{s}  and a=2\,\,\frac{m}{s^2}

so we can estimate the velocity of the vehicle at different times just by replacing the requested "t" in the expression:

v(t)=v_0+a\,t\\v(t)=4+2\,\,t\\v(1)=4+2\,(1) = 6\,\,\frac{m}{s} \\v(5)=4+2\,(5)=14\,\,\frac{m}{s}

How is force defined?​
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

In physics, a force is any interaction that, when unopposed, will change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity (which includes to begin moving from a state of rest), i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull.

Photovoltaic cells: a) have become more economical to produce and use over the past 25 years. b) are the most efficient means of
Yanka [14]

Photovoltaic cells are the most efficient means of converting solar energy to electricity. Option b is correct.

<h3>What is a cell?</h3>

A cell is a voltage and current-producing device that consists of a single anode and cathode separated by an electrolyte.

One or more cells can make up a battery. One cell, for example, is one AA battery.

Light intensity on a solar cell is often measured in "suns," with one sun roughly equivalent to 1 kW/m².

Concentrated sunlight improves the ratio of current generated while the device is lighted vs when it is dark, hence enhancing output voltage and efficiency.

Photovoltaic cells are the most efficient means of converting solar energy to electricity.

Hence, option b is correct.

How much acceleration can most humans stand before they pass out?
kumpel [21]
Normal humans can withstand no more than 9 g's, and even that for only a few seconds. When undergoing an acceleration of 9 g's, your body feels nine times heavier than usual, blood rushes to the feet, and the heart can't pump hard enough to bring this heavier blood to the brain.
