Which type of stress causes deformation that leads to earthquakes at converging plate boundaries?

1 answer:

4 0

The answer is Compressional Stress

In geology, stress is the force per unit area that is placed on a rock. ... This is called confining stress. Compression squeezes rocks together, causing rocks to fold or fracture (break). Compression is the most common stress at convergent plate boundaries.

I hope this helped!! Have a great day :D

Part 1)

Answer:

Explanation:

As we know by equation of charging of the capacitor we will have

$V = E(1 - e^{-t/RC})$

so we will have

$87 = 105(1 - e^{-t/RC})$

here we know that

$R = 3.00 \times 10^6 ohm$

$C = 0.250 \mu F$

so we have

$t = 1.32 s$

Part b)

Answer:

The time will increase.

Explanation:

As we know that on increasing the value of the resistance the the product of the resistance and capacitance will increase so the time will increase to get the above voltage.

Part c)

Answer:

The capacitor discharges through a very low resistance (the lamp filled with ionized gas), and so the discharge time constant is very short. Thus the flash is very brief.

Explanation:

Since the lamp resistance is very small so the energy across the lamp will totally lost in very short interval of time

Part d)

Answer:

Once the lamp has flashed, the stored energy in the capacitor is gone, and there is no source of charge to maintain the lamp current. The lamp "goes out", the lamp resistance increases, and the capacitor starts to recharge. It charges again and the process will repeat.

Explanation:

Since we know that the battery is connected to the given system so after whole energy of capacitor is flashed out it is again charged by the battery and the process will continue
