Answer:

Substances can change phase—often because of a temperature change. At low temperatures, most substances are solid; as the temperature increases, they become liquid; at higher temperatures still, they become gaseous. The process of a solid becoming a liquid is called melting.

Compared to the thickness and density of the continental crust of South America, the oceanic crust of the Pacific floor is______

Answer:

The pacific floor (oceanic crust) is thinner and more denser

Explanation:

The continental crust have a thickness of about 35 to 40 km on an average, and are composed of rocks that has less denser granitic minerals such as feldspar, quartz.

On the other hand, the oceanic crust have a thickness of about 7 to 10 km on an average, and it is comprised of denser mafic rocks that contains high amount of olivine and pyroxene minerals.

Due to this, the oceanic crust subducts below the continental crust during the time of collision.

Thus, the pacific floor (oceanic crust) is thinner and more denser, in comparison to the South American continental crust.

in a tall building, a certain window is 500 meters above the ground.A tennis ball is catapulted horizontally out of the window w

expeople1 [14]

The tennis ball lands at a point 40.4 m from the base of the building.

The tennis ball is projected with a horizontal velocity u from a window, which is at a height y from the ground. The ball lands at a distance x from the base of the building. Let the ball take a time t to reach the ground. In the time t ,the ball falls a vertical distance y and also travel a horizontal distance x.

The initial vertical velocity of the ball is zero, since the ball is projected in the horizontal direction. The ball falls down under the action of gravitational force.

Thus, use the equation of motion,

$y=\frac{1}{2} gt^2$
