    Explain how plate tectonics can help our understanding of the distribution of either earthquakes or volcanic eruptions. Plate tectonics can help us understand the distribution of earthquakes and volcanoes very easily‚ it is recorded that main earthquake and volcanic zones are clustered along plate boundaries and more powerful ones are near destructive and conservative plate boundaries. Over time we have learnt that earthquakes that occur on a constructive plate boundary cause little hazard to

    Continental drift is the idea that the earth’s continents are drifting away‚ relative to each other across the ocean bed suggested by Alfred Wegner as part of his wider theory on plate tectonics. The plate tectonic theory suggested by Alfred Wegner in 1915 was that millions of years ago all the continents were joined together in one mass of land called ‘Pangaea’‚ the evidence for this was that coal was found on Antarctica‚ the shape of Africa and south America fit together and same fossils were

    about the Earth and the physical processes‚ which take place within it. My favourite area of geophysics is tectonic movement. Whilst visiting the Himalayan mountain range in 2015 I had first-hand experience of a 7.5 magnitude earthquake in the Gilgit area of Pakistan. This harrowing experience sparked my interest in the formation of the mountain range and the challenges of measuring tectonic movement using a variety of techniques‚ including GPS from satellites to track rock movements and seismometers

    A Changing Industry: Motion Picture Special Effects "Special visual effects have added to the allure of motion pictures since the early days of cinema. French director Georges Méliès is considered the most influential pioneer of special effects. His film "A Trip to the Moon" combined live action with animation‚ demonstrating to audiences that cinema could create worlds‚ objects‚ and events that did not exist in real life" (Tanis par. 1). Through examples of the new techniques and the movies where

    Curvilinear Motion Projectile Motion When the player hits the “Sepak”‚ the motion of the “Sepak” is called projectile motion. The “Sepak” itself is called projectile. The “Sepak” will follow a parabolic path called trajectory especially if air resistance is negligible. Two coordinates are usually used to describe projectile motion: horizontal and vertical axes. The horizontal distance traveled by the projectile is called the range. While the vertical distance‚ that is‚ the distance from where

    projectile motion. A projectile is an object flying through the air that is only under the force of gravity (neglecting air resistance). A projectile moves both horizontally and vertically‚ which creates a parabolic flight path. In vertical projectile motion there is a constant velocity since there are no forces in the horizontal direction (neglecting drag due to air resistance). Consequently‚ there is no acceleration in horizontal projectile motion. In vertical projectile motion gravity is
