Question

A tectonic force is applied in a westward direction to a stationary block of the Earth's crust. The block briefly accelerates westward and then comes to rest.

If a future tectonic force with twice the magnitude were to be applied to the block in the same direction, and all other factors are assumed to be the same, the block would
accelerate northward at the same rate as the first acceleration.

accelerate westward at twice the rate as the first acceleration.

would not accelerate in any direction.

accelerate westward at half the rate as the first acceleration.

Answer 5

oh yea u can tag ppl by a @ in front of there user name like @likeabosssssss and I agree don't to fan and hit best response thx

Answer 6

I agree with u

Answer 7

A tectonic plate applies a downward force onto the asthenosphere, which lies beneath the plate. According to Newton's 3rd Law, which can be described as the law of action-reaction,
the asthenosphere applies a force of equal magnitude upward onto the tectonic plate.

the asthenosphere applies a force of double magnitude downward as well.

the asthenosphere applies a force of double magnitude upward onto the tectonic plate.

the asthenosphere applies a force of equal magnitude downward as well.
