Back

50N

Front

What type of plate boundary occurs when two tectonic plates move apart?

Back

Divergent boundary

Front

Why is the Equator the warmest part of the Earth?

Back

Because it receives the most direct sunlight.

Front

What is the approximate acceleration of a 51.5 kg bookshelf pushed with a net force of 67 N?

Back

Front

Define acceleration in physics.

Back

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object.

Front

What is a convergent plate boundary?

Back

A boundary where two tectonic plates move towards each other.

Front

What is the relationship between mass and acceleration in Newton's second law?

Back

As mass increases, acceleration decreases for a constant force.

Front

What happens at a transform plate boundary?

Back

Two tectonic plates slide past each other.
