1. All plates A-D shown in the figure below move rigidly without rotation. All ridges add at equal rates to the plates on either side of them (the rates given on the diagram are half the plate- separation rates. The trench forming the boundary of plate A does not consume A. Use the plate velocities and directions to determine (a) the relative motion between plates B and D (b) the relative motion between the triple junction J and plate A. Where and when will J reach the trench? Draw a sketch of the geometry after this collision showing the relative velocity vectors and discuss the subsequent evolution

(H.W. 9.) If a rock has a permeability of 1 millidarcy, how much water will flow through it per unit of time and area under a gradient of unity? (The water temperature is 20°C.)
A 3-story building sits atop several columns. The top of the columns can only move 5.00 cm laterally with respect to the bottom before failing. An earthquake tremor with a ground displacement of 0.750 cm induces resonance. If the natural period of the structure is 2.50 s and the tremor lasts 7.00 s, will the columns survive? You will need to use : Δ x = π D t T D is the ground displacement, t is the tremor duration and T is the period of the structure.
