One student designed an experiment to demonstrate the formation of a geologic feature. the steps of the experiment are listed below.

1. place a rectangular piece of cardboard on a table.
2. take a two inches long rigid broom straw.
3. place the straw on the cardboard along one of its edges.
4. use a clip to attach the middle of the straw to the cardboard so that approximately half of the straw is on each side of the clip.
5. place one hand on each of the two halves of the straw.
6. push both ends of the straw towards the clip.
7. observe the straw snap as it moves up and bends due to pressure.

which of these geologic features was created by the process demonstrated by the student's experiment?

a. the aleutians islands
b. the big island of hawaii
c. the grand canyon
d. the sierra nevada mountains

Imagine you are riding on a yacht in the ocean and traveling at 20 mph. you then hit a golf ball at 100 mph from the deck of the yacht. you see the ball move away from you at 100mph, while a person standing on a near by beach would observe your golf ball traveling at 120 mph (20 mph + 100 mph). now imagine you are aboard the hermes spacecraft traveling at 0.1c (1/10 the speed of light) past mars and shine a laser from the front of the ship. you would see the light traveling at c (the speed of light) away from your ship. according to einstein’s special relativity, how fast will a person on mars observe the light to be traveling? a) 0.1c (1/10 the speed of light) b) c (the speed of light) c)1.1c (c+0.1c)
