Convergent boundaries move towards each other. They can be classified as continental-continental, or oceanic-continental.

Oceanic-Continental: Heavier oceanic plate slides under a continental plate in a process called subduction.

Continental-Continental: Tectonic plates push up against each other and often fold upwards, creating mountain ranges.

What is the kinetic energy of a 9.0 kg steelhead if its speed is 16 m/s?
Vesnalui [34]

<u>We are given:</u>

Mass of the Steelhead(m) = 9 kg

Velocity of the Steelhead(v) = 16 m/s

<u>Calculating the Kinetic Energy:</u>

KE = 1/2mv²

replacing the variables

KE = 1/2 * 9 * (16)²

KE = 1152 Joules

A ball is thrown upward at time t=0 from the ground with an initial velocity of 60 m/s (~ 134 mph). Assume that g = 10 m/s2.At w
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

6 second

Explanation:

initial velocity of ball, u = 60 m/s

g = 10 m/s^2

Let the ball takes time t to reach at the maximum height

We know that at maximum height, the velocity of ball is zero.

v = 0 m/s

Use first equation of motion

v = u + gt

0 = 60 - 10 x t

t = 6 second

Thus, the ball takes 6 second to reach to maximum height.
