If the velocity is constant then the acceleration of the object is zero.
Thus when we apply the equation
It remains
or equivalent
Answer:
D. Newton's second law
Explanation:
Newton's second law of motion states that force of an object is a product of its mass and its acceleration.
Mathematically, F= ma where m is mass and a is acceleration
So from the statement above : The acceleration of an object is proportional to the force applied to it and inversely proportional to its mass , it can be seen from the formula variation as;
F= ma -----making a the subject of the formula
a= F/ m
a= 1/m * F --------- a is inversely related to m as you can see from 1/m but directly related to F hence;
Increase in mass with the same force applied causes the body to accelerate slower where as when force increases, the body accelerates faster.
Answer:
Subducting convergent boundary
Explanation:
Generally, volcanoes occurs in both divergent and convergent boundaries. But the convergent boundary it occurs is usually associated with subduction.
Divergent boundary, plates move away from each other creating a new crust in the process. The diverging plates creates the space for magma to be squeezed through cracks and fissures. The magma's erupt to form volcanoes. In the Atlantic ocean the spreading of the plates causes an upwelling of magma through the crest of the Atlantic ridges. New oceanic crust are formed through this process. Sometimes the magma eruption forms volcanoes that are higher than the sea level.
Convergent boundary , plates collides with each other . But in the case of volcanoes existence , the collision should be between a denser plate(oceanic plates) and a less dense plates(continental plates) so that subduction can take place. The subducted plates (oceanic plates) creates trenches and get expose to high temperature and pressure as it sinks toward the mantle. The upper mantle rocks melts and migrate to the earth surface forming volcanoes . Over 75% of the volcanoes occur along the pacific basin where convergent boundary is dominant. Pacific ring of fire has one of the most number of volcanoes.
Explanation:
1. Phases of Venus: Galileo was the first astronomer to use a telescope to observe the celestial objects. Through a telescope he observed that Venus shows the phases just like the Moon. This proved the Heliocentric theory correct against the then prevalent Geocentric theory.
2. Law of Falling bodies: The acceleration due to gravity is independent of weight of the objects that means two bodies of different mass will hit the ground at the same time if dropped from the same height.
3. The uneven surface of the Moon: He observed that the surface of the Moon is uneven and rough.
4. Discovery of the 4 Moons of Jupiter
