What is the best description of a convergent boundary? (Do they move towards eachother, side by side past each other, away from

each other, or are they attracted to each other by gravity)

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.

Veronika [31]

Given:

The mass of the halfback is m = 107 kg

The speed of the halfback is v = 8 m/s

To find the momentum.

Explanation:

The momentum of the halfback is

\begin{gathered} p=\text{ mv} \\ =\text{ 107}\times8 \\ =\text{ 856 kg m/s} \end{gathered}

Thus, the momentum of the halfback is 856 kg m/s

The electric field strength between the plates of a simple air capacitor is equal to the voltage across the plates divided by th
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

d = V/E

Explanation:

From the definition, we can say that the electric field strength between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor is

E = v/d

where

E = electric field strength

V = potential difference

d = distance between the plates

On rearranging the equation and making d subject of the formula, we have

d = V/E

From the question, we're given that

V = 112 V

E = 1.12 kV/cm converting to V/m, we have 110000 V/cm

d = 112 / 110000

d = 0.00102 m

d = 1.02*10^-3 m

A truck contains both hydraulic brakes (reliability 0.96) and mechanical brakes (reliability 0.99). What is the probability of s
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

i) 0.9504

ii) 0.0452

Explanation:

Given data: reliability of hydraulic brakes= 0.96

reliability of mechanical brakes = 0.99

So the probability of stopping the truck = 0.96×0.99= 0.9504

At low speed

case: A works and B does not

= 0.96×(1-0.99) = 0.0096

case2 : B works and A does not

= 0.99×(1-0.96) = 0.0396

Therefore, probality of stopping = 0.0096+0.0396 = 0.0492
