A subduction zone is where one plate is pulled under the edge of another and occurs in convergent plate boundaries. Which type of crusts are involved in the subduction zone?
a. continental-continental
b. continental-oceanic
c. oceanic-oceanic

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

b. Continental-oceanic

Explanation:

The Earth's crust has been divided into a series of plates. These plates move at a different rate or speed in different directions.

These plates are divided by the boundary between them which are of three types: convergent, transform and divergent.

The convergent boundaries are the one which moves toward each other and the based on the crust they are of three types: continent-continent, ocean-ocean and ocean-continent.

In ocean-continent boundaries, the oceanic plate is denser compared to the continental plate is lighter as a result of which during the process of subduction the oceanic plate sinks beneath the continental plate towards the mantle and melts.

Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.

Explanation:

[tex]{\bold{\sf{\underline{Understanding \: the \: concept}}}}[/tex]

✠ This question says that there is an object and its mass is 2 kg ; it's raised to a height 10 m and possess potential energy of 200 J. Now this question ask us to find the kinetic energy and the potential energy at a height 4 metre.

[tex]\bold{↬{ }}[/tex][tex]{\bold{\sf{\underline{Given \: that}}}}[/tex]

✰ Mass = 2 kilograms

✰ Raised height = 10 metres

✰ Posses potential energy = 200 Joules

[tex]\bold{↬{ }}[/tex][tex]{\bold{\sf{\underline{To \: find}}}}[/tex]

✰ Kinetic energy at a height 4 metre

✰ Potential energy at a height 4 metre

[tex]{\bold{\sf{\underline{Solution}}}}[/tex]

✰ Kinetic energy at a height 4 metre = 120 J

✰ Potential energy at a height 4 metre = 80 J

[tex]{\bold{\sf{\underline{Using \: concepts}}}}[/tex]

✰ Potential energy formula.

[tex]{\bold{\sf{\underline{Using \: formula}}}}[/tex]

✰ Potential energy = mgh

[tex]{\bold{\sf{\underline{We \: also \: write \: these \: as}}}}[/tex]

✰ Potential energy as P.E

✰ Mass as m

✰ Joules as J

✰ Height as h

✰ Raised height as g

[tex]{\bold{\sf{\underline{Full \: solution}}}}[/tex]

✠ Let us find the Potential energy.

↦ Potential energy = mgh

↦ Potential energy = 2 × 10 × 4

↦ Potential energy = 20 × 4

↦ Potential energy = 80 J

✠ Now according to the question let us find the kinetic energy

↦ Kinetic energy = Posses potential energy - Finded potential energy

↦ Kinetic energy = 200 J - 80 J

↦ Kinetic energy = 120 Joules

given:-

An object of mass 2kg raised to a height 10m possess potential energy of 200J.

to find:-

What is the kinetic energy and potential energy at a height 4 metre?

solution:-

from energy conservation,

potential energy at 10m height =potential energy +kinetic energy at 4 m

potential energy at 10 m height=200

let,Kinetic energy at 4m=KE

potential energy at 4m=PE

so,

200=KE+PE

potential energy at 4m height =

mgh2×10×480

Hence,

kinetic energy at 4m is =200-80=120J

A family is skating at an ice rink. The 58.2 kg mother is holding the
hand of her 35.5 kg daughter. The father grabs his wife's free hand and pulls horizontally with a constant force of 100. N. Assume that the skates glide without friction on the ice and that the family's hands andarms approximate ideal strings. How much net force does the daughter experience?

Answers

Answer:

When I got this question I had to draw it out so if you have to do that, draw 3 stick figures holding hands, one representing the mother, father, and daughter. Then you write their weights on top of them and then draw an arrow pointing from the father to the mother.

Explanation:

use this formula :

[tex]a_{y}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{Fdadshandy}{msys}[/tex]

then you fill it in :

[tex]a_{y}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{100N}{35.5kg+58.2kg}[/tex]

[tex]a_{y}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{100N}{93.7kg}[/tex]

[tex]a_{y}[/tex] = [tex]1.0672[/tex] [tex]m/s^{2}[/tex]

then you multiply that with the daughters weight :

[tex]T_{2} x= m_{2} a_{y}[/tex]

[tex]T_{2} x = 35.5kg (1.0672 m/s^{2})[/tex]

[tex]T_{2} x = 37.89N[/tex]

and that's the answer :) : 37.89N

Susan makes the following entry in her notebook: “On Friday we were given a blue liquid in a shallow container. We placed it on the windowsill over the weekend. On Monday morning, there was no liquid left, but the dish had some solid blue stuff in it.”

a. Was the blue liquid in the dish a heterogenous mixture, a solution, or a pure substance? Explain your choice.

b. Write a few sentences about what you think happened in the dish.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

a. From the information provided in the question, the blue liquid is a solution. This is because a solution is a type of homogeneous mixture (that has an evenly distributed solute in a solvent) which is the reason the liquid was said to be blue (and not immiscible blue solid in a liquid) but after been exposed to heat became just a blue solid. Typically, a solution has a solute and a solvent (combined), the solute here is the blue solid while the solvent is the liquid that made the combination a liquid.

b. Since the dish containing the liquid was placed on a windowsill, it can be assumed that the dish was subjected to heat from the sun which caused the liquid (in the solution) to evaporate after exposure to the heat from the sun (over the weekend) leaving the blue solid solute (of the solution) to remain in the dish. This can be referred to as evaporation to dryness in separation techniques (if the goal was to intentionally separate the solid solute from the liquid solvent).

A man standing on top of a 30 m tall building throws a brick downwards with a velocity of 12 m/s. Determine the speed of the brick just before it hits the ground.

Answers

Answer:

27.1m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Height of the building  = 30m

Initial velocity  = 12m/s

Unknown:

Final velocity  = ?

Solution:

We apply one of the kinematics equation to solve this problem:

         v²  = u²  + 2gh

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height

          v²   = 12²  + (2 x 9.8 x 30)

          v  = 27.1m/s

An 82 kg man, at rest, drops from a diving board 3.0 m above the surface of the water and comes to rest 0.55 s after reaching the water. What force does the water exert on him?

Answers

Answer:

1626.4 N

Explanation:

Given that a 82 kg man, at rest, drops from a diving board 3.0 m above the surface of the water and comes to rest 0.55 s after reaching the water. What force does the water exert on him?

The parameters to be considered are:

Distance S = 3m

Time t = 0.55s

Since the man started from rest, initial velocity u = 0

Using second equation of motion

S = Ut + 1/2at^2

3 = 1/2 × a × 0.55^2

3 = 1/2 × a × 0.3025

a = 3/ 0.15125

a = 19.83 m/s^2

Force = mass × acceleration

Force = 82 × 19.83

Force = 1626.4 N

Therefore, the force that water exerted on him is 1626.4 N

Explanation:

40 ampere current passes through a 1 kW heater with 25 Voltage across it.

What is voltage?

The difference in electric potential between two places is known as voltage, often referred to as electric pressure, electric tension, or potential difference. It relates to the amount of labor required to transfer a test charge between two places in a static electric field.

Given that power of the source is 1 kW and voltage is 25 V

current is given as,

Power = Voltage*Current

1kW = 25*Current

Current = 1000/25 = 40 ampere.

40 ampere current passes through a 1 kW heater with 25 Voltage across it.

Galileo, in full Galileo Galilei, (born February 15, 1564, Pisa [Italy]—died January 8, 1642, Arcetri, near Florence), Italian natural philosopher, astronomer, and mathematician who made fundamental contributions to the sciences of motion, astronomy, and strength of materials and to the development of the scientific method. His formulation of (circular) inertia, the law of falling bodies, and parabolic trajectories marked the beginning of a fundamental change in the study of motion. His insistence that the book of nature was written in the language of mathematics changed natural philosophy from a verbal, qualitative account to a mathematical one in which experimentation became a recognized method for discovering the facts of nature. Finally, his discoveries with the telescope revolutionized astronomy and paved the way for the acceptance of the Copernican heliocentric system, but his advocacy of that system eventually resulted in an Inquisition process against him.
