How does light travel from one point to another?
In straight lines (well, "geodesic" might be a better term), and at the speed of light in the medium they're in.
What scientific theories have been disproven?
Einstein found that the fasting moving object is light. September 2011, scientists found that neutrinos travel faster than light.
What are conventional currents?
"Conventional electrical currents" are thought of as moving from the Positive pole of a supply to the Negative. Physically this is not what happens, but by the time they figured it out, there was so much literature that they decided to keep it as a convention--since for most purposes it simply does not matter. The electrons actually sneak around the other way--from negative to positive.
What does making models involve in science?
a scientist studying how earthquakes happen imagines the top layer of earth moving like a block of wood rubbing on sandpaper this helps scientists imagine what is happening what kind of model is this
No force is necessary to?
to keep an object moving the way it is already moving .
How have scientists figured out that the Pacific Plate is moving at about 9 centimeters per year?
Scientists have used GPS measurements to track the movements of tectonic plates, including the Pacific Plate. By placing GPS receivers on the Earth's surface, they can accurately measure the distance between the receivers over time. By analyzing these measurements, scientists have determined that the Pacific Plate is moving at a rate of about 9 centimeters per year in a northwest direction.
In California the pacific plate slides past the North American plate. If the pacific plate is moving at a speed of 5 centimeters per year how long will it take for the plate to travel 100 meters?
There are 100 centimeters in a meter. Thus 100 meters is 10000 centimeters 10000 divided by 5 centimeters per year = Two Thousand Years
Does a whale shark sleep?
Yes the great white shark does sleep while moving scientists have not yet figured out how but they manage to keep floating/and/or swiming.
What is the fastest moving tectonic plate?
The Pacific Plate moves faster than any other tectonic plate, averaging about 10 centimeters per year. Its swift motion leads to a range of dynamic geological phenomena, such as frequent earthquakes and volcanic eruptions along its boundaries.
Are the plates moving kilometers a year or centimeters a year?
They move at centimeters per year.
What speed is the pacific plate moving?
The Pacific Plate is moving at an average rate of about 3 to 10 centimeters per year, in a west-northwest direction. This movement is driven by the global process of plate tectonics, where the Earth's lithosphere is divided into several large plates that move relative to each other.
Describe the pacific plate-its current status and movement?
The Pacific Plate is one of the largest tectonic plates on Earth, covering the Pacific Ocean floor. It is currently moving in a northwesterly direction at a rate of a few centimeters per year. The movement of the Pacific Plate is responsible for creating many geological features such as the Ring of Fire and causing earthquakes and volcanic activity in the region.
What direction does the pacific plate moving?
eastward
Is getting a ticket for illegal u-turn a moving violation?
Yes, unless you've figured out how to make a U-turn without moving your car.
What plate is moving the fastest?
The Pacific and Cocos plate.
How do scientists know the poles of the earth are moving?
a compass
What do Scientists refer to all above ground freshwater environments with moving water as .?
Scientists refer to all above ground freshwater environments with moving water as lotic ecosystems.
