Where does the material for new mountain ranges come from

Physics
1 answer:
Shalnov [3]4 years ago
5 0
In the formation of mountain ranges and all other landforms, there is always a cycle involved. As one mountain comes up, another land gets pushed down into the hot mantle, where the rock will melt. Due to convection currents, the tectonic plates move and their boundaries cause them to interact with each other. As mountain ranges are formed, other land gets pushed up forming what we know are mountains, with rising magma from other parts of the world solidifying creating new rock to fill the empty space.

What are renewable resources?
Scilla [17]

Renewable resources are energy sources that can easily be utilized time and time again because they can be replaced quickly.  Therefore, we can eliminate the third choice.

Now, you must distinguish whether nuclear energy, coal energy, wind energy, and geothermal energy are renewable or not.  

Nuclear energy is not renewable because it requires many materials to obtain.

Wind energy is renewable because there is constantly wind, but coal energy is not renewable because coal takes millions of years to form.

Geothermal energy is renewable because there is constantly heat radiating from the Earth.

The answer is a renewable resource is one that can be replenished in a short amount of time.  An example would be geothermal energy.

Hope this helps!!

During a Buckeye football game, the quarterback throws a ‘long bomb' to a wide receiver. During it's flight, the ball reached a
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

A) The distance traveled by the ball in the Up-down dimension is 30 m

The displacement of the ball in the up-down direction is 0 m

B) The distance the ball travels in the east west direction is 45 m [East]

The displacement of the ball is the east-west direction is 45 m [East]

Explanation:

The long measures of the ball motion are;

The maximum height reached = 15 m Up

The horizontal distance traveled by the ball during flight = 30 m East

The distance the receiver ran  with the ball after the ball was caught = 15 m East

A) The distance traveled by the ball in the Up-down dimension = 15 m up + 15 m backdown = 30 m in the up-down direction

The displacement of the ball in the up-down direction, d = 15 m + (-15 m) = 0 m

B) The distance the ball travels in the east west direction = 30 m [E] + 15 m [E] = 45 [E]

The displacement of the ball is the east-west direction, d = 30 m + 15 m = 45 m [E].

An uniform electric field of magnitude E = 100 N/C is oriented along the positive y-axis. What is the magnitude of the flux of t
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

The magnitude of the flux of electric field through a square of surface area is zero.

Explanation:

E=100 NC^{-1}\\\\A=2 m^2\\\\Electic\,\,flux\,\,flux\,\,is\,\,given\,\,as:\\\\\phi_E=E.A\,cos\,\theta

It is given that square box is parallel to yz-plane which has normal vector perpendicular to plane in x-direction. Angle between normal vector of area and electric field is 90°. Substituting in (1)

\phi_E=E.A\,cos\,(90^o)\\\\\phi_E=0
