The correct answer is - C. Crustal plates, crustal plates.

The movement of the crustal plates of the Earth is the reason why the geologic processes are occurring on our planet. With their movement, the crustal plates manage to create lot of pressure, open up gaps for the magma from the mantle, as well as make adjustments deeper into the ground.

Because of the adjustments deep into the ground, or rather the crust, lot of force is released, manifested as strong and very quick vibrations, better known as earthquakes.

The gaps that are opening between the plates let the magma reach the surface, thus enabling the volcanic activities on the planet.

The pressure from the plates' collision makes the land lift up slowly, and over time a mountain range starts to form because of the continuous lifting up of the area.

a uniform electric field E=15 N/C points downwards. A particle with charge q=-0.15 C is placed in the electric field. What is th
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

2.25 N upwards

Explanation:

Answer:

800 N/C to the right

Explanation:

The equation that relates force on a charge, electric field and charge is

F=qE

where

F is the force acting on the charge

q is the charge

E is the electric field

In this problem, we have

E=15 N/C is the electric field

q=-0.15 C is the charge

Substituting into the formula, we find the force

F=(-0.15 C)(15 N/C)=-2.25 N

Concerning the direction:

- The electric field and the force have same directions if the charge is positive

- The electric field and the force have opposite directions if the charge is negative

Here the charge is negative, so the electric field has opposite direction to the force: therefore, it must be upwards.

Wolf.The wolf is a carnivore which acts as a predator to other smaller

animals in the ecosystem.

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

Preys are mostly smaller animals in which the predators feed on for food.

They are usually herbivores and primary consumers in the ecosystem.

Examples of Preys include:

  • Rodents

which element is reactive an element whose atoms atoms have seven valence electrons or a element whose atoms have eight valence
likoan [24]
Elements with 7 valence electrons are extremely reactive, while elements with 8 valence electrons practically don't react at all.

This is caused by the fact that all molecules want to have 8 valence electrons; that's just the scientific fact. So, if an element already has 8 valence electrons, it doesn't need to react with anything. If the element only has 7 valence electrons, however, it really wants to react with something with 1 valence electron to get to that special number 8.

A 0.25-kilogram ball is observed to accelerate at 4,000 m/sec2 as it is hit with a bat.
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

<h2>1000 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 0.25 × 4000

We have the final answer as

<h3>1000 N</h3>

Hope this helps you

A baseball pitcher throws a ball at 90.0 mi/h in the horizontal direction. How far does the ball fall vertically by the time it
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Vertical distance=  3.3803ft

Explanation:

First with the speed of the ball and the distance traveled horizontally we can determine the flight time to reach the plate:

Velocity= (90 mi/h) × (1 mile/5280ft) = 475200ft/h

Distance= Velocity × time⇒ time= 60.5ft / (475200ft/h) = 0.00012731h

time=  0.00012731h × (3600s/h)= 0.458316s

With this time we can determine the distance traveled vertically taking into account that its initial vertical velocity is zero and its acceleration is that of gravity, 9.81m/s²:

Vertical distance= (1/2) × 9.81 (m/s²) × (0.458316s)²=1.0303m

Vertical distance= 1.0303m × (1ft/0.3048m) = 3.3803ft

This is the vertical distance traveled by the ball from the time it is thrown by the pitcher until it reaches the plate, regardless of air resistance.
