Answer:

The Earth would increase in volume

Explanation:

What would happen to Earth if ocean floor were created at divergent boundaries at a faster rate than it is destroyed at convergent boundaries?

Divergent boundaries are boundaries where plates pull away from each other, forming mild earthquakes and volcanoes as magma comes to the surface. Earthquakes are as a result of vibrations travelling within the earth or ocean floors . Volcanoes occur as a result of the eruption of  molten magma from the ocean floor

In divergent boundaries, the plates pull away and and the weakened crust in between collapse leaving more space thereby increasing in volume.

Convergent boundaries are boundaries that pull into each other. mountain chains are formed as the two plates push into each other if they are of the same density.

an object of mass 8 kg is whriled round in a vertical circle of radius 2m with a constant speed of 6m/s .Then the maximum and mi
algol13

Answer:

Maximum Tension=224N

Minimum tension= 64N

Explanation:

Given

mass =8 kg

constant speed = 6m/s .

g=10m/s^2

Maximum Tension= [(mv^2/ r) + (mg)]

Minimum tension= [(mv^2/ r) - (mg)]

Then substitute the values,

Maximum Tension= [8 × 6^2)/2 +(8×9.8)] = 224N

Minimum tension= [8 × 6^2)/2 -(8×9.8)]

=64N

Hence, Minimum tension and maximum Tension are =64N and 2224N respectively
