Suppose one such plate has an average speed of 5.50 cm per year. What distance (m) does it move in 60.0 seconds at this speed? Put your answer in scientific notation in the following way: 2.07e-12 (no units)Answer: 1.05 e-75. Tectonic plates are large segments of the earth's crust that move slowly. Suppose one such plate has an average speed of 5.50 cm per year. You also should know the distance it traveled in 60.0 s (previous question). What is its speed in miles per million years?Answer: 34.26. Assume that an MX missile goes from rest to a suborbital velocity of 6.50 km/s in 40.0 s. Whatis its average acceleration in m/s^2?Answer: 163 m/s27. Assume that an MX missile goes from rest to a suborbital velocity of 6.50 km/s in 40.0 s. Whatis its average acceleration in m/s^2?
