Im pretty sure they can form mountains and volcanoes. (ie fold mountains happen when plates converge)

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

can form mountains and volcanoes.

Convergent faults <u>can form mountains and volcanoes</u>.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Convergent plates boundary are created when two tectonic plates collide such that one of the converging plates will move beneath the other forming a subduction zone. The process is called subduction.
  • <u>Convergent faults happen when plates move toward one another , and can form volcanoes  and also create mountains.</u>
  • At convergent plate boundaries where two plates move toward each other a compressive stress takes place

An airplane is flying from Dallas, Texas to Pensacola, Florida. Flying at maximum velocity, it encounters strong winds moving at
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

G. It will take twice as long.

Explanation:

Let's call v the original speed of the plane and d the distance between Dallas and Pensacola. The time the plane originally takes to complete the flight is

t=\frac{d}{v}

In this problem, we are told that the plane encounters wind moving at half of its speed: \frac{v}{2}, in the opposite direction. This means that the new speed of the plane is

v'=v-\frac{v}{2}=\frac{v}{2}

And so, the time the plane takes now to complete the flight is

t'=\frac{d}{v/2}=2\frac{d}{v}=2t

So, the plane takes twice the time as before.

A 92kg astronaut and a 1200kg satellite are at rest relative to the space shuttle. The astronaut pushes on the satellite, giving
Harman [31]

Answer:

13.7m

Explanation:

Since there's no external force acting on the astronaut or the satellite, the momentum must be conserved before and after the push. Since both are at rest before, momentum is 0.

After the push

m_av_a + m_sv_s = 0

Where m_a = 92kg is the mass of the astronaut, m_s = 1200kg is the mass of the satellite, v_s = 0.14 m/s is the speed of the satellite. We can calculate the speed v_a of the astronaut:

v_a = \frac{-m_sv_s}{m_a} = \frac{-1200*0.14}{92} = -1.83 m/s

So the astronaut has a opposite direction with the satellite motion, which is further away from the shuttle. Since it takes 7.5 s for the astronaut to make contact with the shuttle, the distance would be

d = vt = 1.83 * 7.5 = 13.7 m
