Answer:

B) San Francisco is close to an area where tectonic plates meet.

Explanation:

According to the question most earthquakes occur in areas close to where tectonic plates meet. The best option that can be concluded from the earthquakes occurring in Francisco is that San Francisco is close to an area where tectonic plates meet. The close proximity of San Francisco to where tectonic plates meets will likely cause earthquake in that region.

Generally, the earth is divided into different plates. These tectonic plates might be oceanic crust or continental crust. The plates are constantly moving. The plates might be moving away from each other(divergence) , colliding with each other(convergence) or moving past each other (transform).

The area where these plates meets are usually area of potential earthquakes. This boundary are area of minor or major earth quake. Usually , aesthenospheric material are introduce to the surface through this boundary.

A motorcycle accelerated from 10 metre per second to 30 metre per second in 6 seconds. How far did it travel in this time ?
Ber [7]
U=10 m/s
v=30 m/s
t=6 sec

therefore, a=(v-u)/t
                   =(30-10)/6
                   =(10/3) ms^-2

now, displacement=ut+0.5*a*t^2
                              =60+ 0.5*(10/3)*36
                              =120 m
And you can solve it in another way:

v^2=u^2+2as
or, s=(v^2-u^2)/2a
       =(900-100)/6.6666666.......
       =120 m

What does deposition mean in a sedimentary formation
Zinaida [17]
Answer:

Sedimentary rocks are types of rock that are formed by the deposition and subsequent cementation of that material at the Earth's surface and within bodies of water. Deposition means that all the sediments, soil, and rocks are all compressed (tightly pressed into each other) and create sedimentary rocks.

I hope this helps! :)
