How were earth's landmasses formed?

Some by plate tectonics, some by vulcanism, but above all else, the very young, cooling earth was all land mass. The oceans came later, as part of the planet's evolution.


How do I calculate the velocity of an object which hits a stationary object if I know the mass of both objects and the distance the stationary object was moved what else must I know to calculate?

In addition to the mass of both objects and the distance the stationary object was moved, you need to know the coefficient of restitution or the type of collision (elastic or inelastic). This information will help you determine how much kinetic energy was transferred during the collision and allow you to calculate the velocity of the moving object before and after the collision.

How does the San Andreas fault work to cause earthquakes?

Poo. :) Joking, just google it, Yahoo Answers has good answers about it Example: San Andreas is a transform fault with two plates sliding past each other. There is also a large bend in the fault (around the LA area). Basically, since these are large rocky plates and not water or something else slippery, they get stuck and tension builds up. When that tension is released as the plates slip, you get an earthquake. The bend makes it more difficult for the plates to slide past each other, which creates more tension, which is why there is such potential for the "big one."

Would liability insurance cover you if damage to your car was due to road conditions?

No, your collision and other than collision would be the place to get those coverages. Liability protects you from having to pay if you injure or damage someone else or their property.


What else resulted from the collision of those plates for Himalayas?

Lifted by the collision of the Indian tectonic plate with the Eurasian Plate, the Himalayan range runs northwest to southeast in a 2,400-kilometre (1,500 mi)-long arc. The range varies in width from 400 kilometres (250 mi) in the west to 150 kilometres (93 mi) in the east. Besides the Greater Himalayas, there are several parallel lower ranges. The southernmost, along the northern edge of the Indian plains and reaching 1000 m in altitude, is the Sivalik Hills. Further north is a higher range, reaching 2000-3000 m, known as the Lower Himalayan Range.


What is comp and collision auto insurance?

Collision is meant to cover your car when it collides with something else. Comprehensive is also sometimes called other than collision, so it usually covers the other things that can happen such as fire or theft.
