Subduction zones form when an oceanic plate collides with another oceanic plate or continental plate. The continental crust is l

ighter and less dense than oceanic crust. Continental crust's density is approximately 2.7 grams per cubic centimeter. Oceanic crust is thinner and the average density is about 3.3 cubic centimeters. When the two crustal plates converge the oceanic plate always bends and subducts beneath a continental plate. Once the oceanic crust subjects, the rocks are subjected to changes in heat and pressure. Because of this, we would expect to find ___________ rocks in the area of a subduction.

The answer is; metamorphic

Occurs when igneous and sedimentary rocks are subjected to extreme temperatures and pressure such that their chemical composition changes. Examples of metamorphic rocks are; marble (that metamorphoses from limestone rock), quartzite (from sandstone). Other types of metamorphic rock include gneiss and schist.

The edge of a flying disc with a radius of 0.13 m spins with a tangential speed of 3.3 m/s. The centripetal acceleration of the
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Centripetal acceleration = 83.77m/s²

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Radius, r = 0.13m

Velocity, v = 3.3m/s

To find centripetal acceleration;

Centripetal acceleration is given by the formula;

Acceleration, a = \frac {v^{2}}{r}

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Centripetal \; acceleration, a = \frac {3.3^{2}}{0.13}

Centripetal \; acceleration, a = \frac {10.89}{0.13}

<em>Centripetal acceleration = 83.77m/s²</em>

<em>Therefore, the centripetal acceleration of the edge of the disc is 83.77 m/s². </em>

If earth's mass were half its actual value but its radius stayed the same, the escape velocity of earth would be:________
siniylev [52]

If the earth's mass were half its actual value but its radius stayed the same, the escape velocity of the earth would be V_e = \sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{r}}.

<h3>What is an escape velocity?</h3>

The ratio of the object's travel distance over a specific period of time is known as its velocity. As a vector quantity, the velocity requires both the magnitude and the direction. the slowest possible speed at which a body can break out of the gravitational pull of a certain planet or another object.

The formula to calculate the escape velocity of earth is given below:-

V_e=\sqrt{\dfrac{2GM}{r}}

Given that earth's mass was half its actual value but its radius stayed the same. The escape velocity will be calculated as below:-

V_e=\sqrt{\dfrac{2GM}{r\times 2}}

V_e = \sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{r}}.

Therefore, If the earth's mass were half its actual value but its radius stayed the same, the escape velocity of the earth would be V_e = \sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{r}}.

A 30.0 kg box hangs from a rope. What is the tension (in N) in the rope if the box has an initial velocity of 2.0 m/s and is slo
hjlf

Answer:

360 N

Explanation:

m = 30kg    u = 2 m/s     a = -2m/s/s

Since the object has an initial velocity of 2 m/s and acceleration of -2 m/s/s

the object will come to rest in 1 second but the force applied in that one second can be calculated by:

F = ma

F = 30 * -2

F = -60 N (the negative sign tells us that the force is acting downwards)

Now, calculating the force applied on the box due to gravity

letting g = -10m/s/s

F = ma

F = 30 * -10

F = -300 N (the negative sign tells us that the force is acting downwards)

Now, calculating the total downward force:

-300 + (-60) = -360 N

<em></em>

<em>Hence, a downward force of 360 N is being applied on the box and since the box did not disconnect from the rope, the rope applied the same amount of force in the opposite direction</em>

Therefore tension on the force = <u>360 N</u>

When a magnetic field is first turned on, the flux through a 20-turn loop varies with time according to Φm=5.0t2−2.0t, where Φm
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

A) ( - 200t + 40 ) volts

B)  b) anticlockwise ,  c) anticlockwise , d) clockwise ,  e) clockwise

Explanation:

Given data:

magnetic flux (Φm) = 5.0t^2 − 2.0t

number of turns = 20

<u>a) determine induced emf </u>

E = - N \frac{d\beta }{dt}

  =  - N ( 10t - 2 ) = - 20 ( 10t - 2 )

  =  - 200t + 40  volts

<u>b) Determine direction of induced current </u>

i) at t = 0

 E = - 0 + 40  ( anticlockwise direction )

ii) at t = 0.10

E = -20 + 40 =  20 ( anticlockwise direction )

iii) at t = 1

E = - 200 + 40 = - 160 ( clockwise direction)

iv) at t = 2

E = -400 + 40 =  - 360 ( clockwise direction )
