The earth's crust is broken up into a series of more-or-less rigid plates that slide around due to motion of material in the mantle below. Although the speeds of these plates vary somewhat, they are typically about 5.2 cm/ycm/y. Assume that this rate remains constant over time. a) If you and your neighbor live on opposite sides of a plate boundary at which one plate is moving northward at 5.2 cm/ycm/y with respect to the other plate, how far apart do your houses move in a century? Express your answer in meters b) Los Angeles is presently 550 kmkm south of San Francisco, but is on a plate moving northward relative to San Francisco. If the 5.2 cm/ycm/y velocity continues, how many years will it take before Los Angeles has moved up to San Francisco? Express your answer in years.
