Answer:

Subduction is a geological process that takes place at convergent boundaries of tectonic plates where one plate moves under another and is forced to sink due to high gravitational potential energy into the mantle. Regions where this process occurs are known as subduction zones. Rates of subduction are typically measured in centimeters per year, with the average rate of convergence being approximately two to eight centimeters per year along most plate boundaries. so i  believe so

A second basemen tosses the ball to the first basemen, who catches it at the same level from which it was thrown. The throw is m
Radda [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Initial speed of ball u=19\ m/s

Launch angle \theta =34.5^{\circ}

As there is no acceleration in horizontal direction therefore there is no change in velocity

thus horizontal velocity remains unchanged

u_x=u\cos \theta

u_x=19\cdot \cos 34.5

u_x=15.65\ m/s

Time of flight of projectile is

T=\frac{2u\sin \theta }{g}

T=\frac{2\times 19\times \sin (34.5)}{9.8}

T=2.196\ s

Thus time for which it is in air is 2.12 s

This is for physical science i don't understand (please help) i need an answer by 11:40
coldgirl [10]

Answer: 1.4mi/hr²

Explanation:

Blank 1: We know that acceleration is the change in velocity/change in time

Using this, we know that the acceleration will be: (50-15)/25 = 1.4

Blank 2: mi/hr²

fredd [130]

Answer:

t = 39.04 1010 year

Explanation:

This is a nuclear disintegration exercise that is governed by the equation.

     N = N0 e (-lam t)

The average life time is related to nuclear activity

      T ½ = ln 2 / lam

Let's use these two equations for exercise, let's start by finding nuclear activity

     Lam = ln 2 / T ½

     Lam = ln 2 / 4.9 10 10

    Lam = 0.14146 10-10 y-1

They tell us that the relationship atoms

      No / N = 0.0040

Let's look

       No / N = 1/0040

       N/No = 250                                                                                                                                                                                

Let's calculate the time

       (-lam t) = ln (N / No)

,        t = - 1 / lam ln (n / No)

        t = - 1 / 0.14146 10-10 ln (250)

        t = 39.04 1010 year
