His observations have been supported by more data over time, and we now call these Newton’s Laws of Motion. His laws explain rest, constant motion, accelerated motion, and describe how b ...

Earthquakes
... •Tectonic Creep is the slow continuous movement along a fault zone that is not accompanied by felt earthquakes. •Locked faults are sections that are not moving. They may be locked due to friction. Pressure builds up in these sections until the it overcomes the friction and the energy is released in ...

Force and Acceleration
... • Air drag builds up as speed increases. The result is reduced acceleration. • More reduction can occur by increasing the surface area encountered by the air. (Diver spreads out) • If there were no air drag, like on the moon, there would be no terminal speed. (free fall and each object hits the gro ...
