Answer:

Oceanic crust and continental crust

Explanation:

A subduction zone is normally between oceanic crust which is made of basalt and continental crust which is made of granite. Oceanic crust is denser than continental crust. So when oceanic crust collides with continental crusts, it subsducts underneath the continental crust since it is denser.

On a caterpillars map all distances are marked in kilometers . The caterpillars map shows the distance between two milkweed plan

frutty [35]

Answer:

The distance in kilometers is 4012 × $10^{-6}$ km.

Explanation:

We know that the conversion of 1 millimeters is equal to $10^{-3}$ meter. And then the conversion of 1 meter is equal to $10^{-3}$ km. Then the conversion of 1 millimeter to km will be

1 mm = $10^{-3}$ m

1 m = $10^{-3}$ km

So, 1 mm = $10^{-3}$ × $10^{-3}$ km = $10^{-6}$ km.

As here the the distance is 4012 mm, then the distance in km will be

4012 mm = 4012 × $10^{-6}$ km.

So the distance is 4012 × $10^{-6}$ km.

A frictionless pendulum is made with a bob of mass 19.7 kg. The bob is held at height = 0.934 meter above the bottom of its traj

Alika [10]

Answer:

265 J

Explanation:

$Energy=PE+KE=mgh+ 0.5mv^{2}$ where KE is kinetic energy, PE is potential energy, m is the mass of an object, v is the speed, h is the height and g is acceleration due to gravity.

Substituting 19.7 Kg for mass, 0.934 for h, 2.93 for v and 9.81 for g then

$Energy=19.7(9.81*0.934+0.5*2.93^{2})=265.063303\approx 265 J$
