What is the name of the theory describing how the lithosphere is broken into segments, or plates, which "float" on the asthenosphere, and associates the interactions between these plates with earthquakes and volcanic activity and the formation of mid-ocean ridges, trenches, mountains, and chains of volcanic islands? A. Conservation of Matter
B. Big Bang Theory
C. Plate Tectonics
D. Theory of Evolution

Aparticle's position is given by x = 3.00 - 9.00t + 3t2, in which x is in meters and t is in seconds. (a) what is its velocity at t = 1 s? (b) is it moving in the positive or negative direction of x just then? (c) what is its speed just then? (d) is the speed increasing or decreasing just then? (try answering the next two questions without further calculation.) (e) is there ever an instant when the velocity is zero? if so, give the time t; if not, answer "0". (f) is there a time after t = 3 s when the particle is moving in the negative direction of x? if so, give the time t; if not, answer "0".

How much work would it take to move a coulomb charge across a 4 volt potential difference?

Ionic compounds can be readily dissolved in water because the high dielectric constant of water screens and decreases the force between the oppositely charged ions.
