Where does the material for new mountain ranges come from

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.

Air pressure is 1.0 · 105 N/m2, air density is 1.3 kg/m3, and the density of soft drinks is 1.0 · 103 kg/m3. If one blows carefu
natita [175]

Answer:

v = 27.456 m/s

Explanation:

The support pressure needed of the water in the straw can be calculated by the formula

Given that,

P = r*g*h

= 1000*9.8*0.05 Pa.= 490 Pa

This pressure is compensated by 0.5*r*v^2 of the air,

Hence,

0.5*1.3*v^2 = 490

velocity of air blown into the straw =

v = 27.456 m/s

Please help me it's URGENT (#10 btw and also how do I solve for time​
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

t = 12s

Explanation:

Given:

v-initial = 0 m/s

x = 360 m

a = 5.0 m/s^2

Solve:

x = (v-initial)t + 1/2(a*t^2)

360 = 0t + 1/2 (5.0t^2)

360 = 2.5 t^2

144 = t^2

t = sqrt(144) = 12

Therefore, it takes 12 seconds.

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

If she stands on the North side of a river flowing to the East at 5 mph,

she must head towards the SouthWest to arrive on the South side of the river directly across from her starting point and we have

x^2 + 5^2 = 10^2 where x is her speed directly across the river

x = (75)^1/2 = 8.66 mph towards the South

sin theta = 5 / 10 = 1/2

She must angle the boat at 30 deg from straight South
