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.

(HELP!! 10pts) a train travels 75km in 1hr, and then 68km in 2hrs. what is its average speed?
blondinia [14]
Average speed = total distance travelled ÷ total time taken

AS = (75km + 68km) ÷ (1hr + 2hr)

As = 143km ÷ 3hr

AS = 47.66667 km/hr

AS = 47.7 km/hr (3sf)

A heavy ball with a weight of 150 N is hung from the ceiling of a lecture hall on a 4.1-m-long rope. The ball is pulled to one s
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

The tension in the rope is 262.88 N

Explanation:

Given:

Weight W = 150 N

Length of rope r = 4.1 m

Initial speed of ball v = 5.5 \frac{m}{s}

For finding the tension in the rope,

First find the mass of rod,

mg = 150                          ( g = 9.8 \frac{m}{s^{2} } )

  m = \frac{150}{9.8}

  m = 15.3 kg

Tension in the rope is,

  T = mg + \frac{mv^{2} }{r}

  T = 150 + \frac{15.3 \times (5.5)^{2} }{4.1}

  T = 262.88 N

Therefore, the tension in the rope is 262.88 N

Two people pull on a horizontal spring that is attached to an immovable wall. Then, they detach it from the wall and pull on opp
zimovet [89]

Answer:In first case

Explanation:

When two People pull the spring, let the applied force by each person be F_o

and spring constant of spring be k

so Total force is 2F_o

total extension according to Hooke's law is

x=\frac{2F_o}{k}

When they detach the spring and apply force in opposite direction then force on either side is F so net extension is

x'=\frac{F_o}{k}

so in first case there will be more extension
