According to the theory of plate tectonics, the lithosphere is separated into sections that are called tectonic plates. These plates move in different directions in response to the forces in Earth’s mantle beneath them. Which of the following correctly matches the plate movement with its description?
convergent boundary; plates move away from one another causing rift valleys and the formation of new crustal material
transform boundary; plates slide past one another in opposite directions causing the formation of faults and earthquakes
divergent boundary; as the plates come together gravity pushes the edge of one plate underneath the edge of a neighboring plate
subduction zone; as the plates come together increased pressure causes the plates to fault and fracture leading to the formation of mountains

As part of your daily workout, you lie on your back and push with your feet against a platform attached to two stiff springs arranged side by side so that they are parallel to each other. when you push the platform, you compress the springs. you do an amount of work of 79.0 j when you compress the springs a distance of 0.230 m from their uncompressed length. (a) what magnitude of force must you apply to hold the platform in this position? (b)how much additional work must you do to move the platform a distance 0.230 m farther? (c) what maximum force must you apply to move the platform a distance 0.230 m farther?
