When tectonic plates collide, this is a convergent plate boundary.
When the two plates at a convergent boundary are continental, they form mountains and mountain ranges.

Hope this helps! :)

With 51 gallons of fuel in its tank, the airplane has a weight of 2390.7 pounds. What is the weight of the plane with 81 gallons
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer: 2561.7 pounds

Explanation:

If we assume the total weight of an airplane (in pounds units) as a <u>linear function</u> of the amount of fuel in its tank (in gallons) and we make a Weight vs amount of fuel graph, which resulting slope is 5.7, we can use the slope equation of the line:

m=\frac{Y-Y_{1}}{X-X_{1}}  (1)

Where:

m=5.7 is the slope of the line

Y_{1}=2390.7pounds is the airplane weight with  51 gallons of fuel in its tank (assuming we chose the Y axis for the airplane weight in the graph)

X_{1}=51gallons is the fuel in airplane's tank for a total weigth of 2390.7 pounds (assuming we chose the X axis for the a,ount of fuel in the tank in the graph)

This means we already have one point of the graph, which coordinate is:

(X_{1},Y_{1})=(51,2390.7)

Rewritting (1):

Y=m(X-X_{1})+Y_{1}  (2)

As Y is a function of X:

Y=f_{(X)}=m(X-X_{1})+Y_{1}  (3)

Substituting the known values:

f_{(X)}=5.7(X-51)+2390.7  (4)

f_{(X)}=5.7X-290.7+2390.7  (5)

f_{(X)}=5.7X+2100  (6)

Now, evaluating this function when X=81 (talking about the 81 gallons of fuel in the tank):

f_{(81)}=5.7(81)+2100  (7)

f_{(81)}=2561.7  (8)   This means the weight of the plane when it has 81 gallons of fuel in its tank is 2561.7 pounds.

4. An electric iron has a
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

4.

a) W = 750 J

b) W = 2250 J

c) t = 2 sec

5. Answered in explanation

Explanation:

4.

The formula of power is given as:

P = W/t

where,

P = Power

W = Work Done

t = Time Taken

a)

Here,

P = 750 W

t = 1 sec

W = ?

Therefore,

750 W = W/1 sec

<u>W = 750 J</u>

b)

Here,

P = 750 W

t = 3 sec

W = ?

Therefore,

750 W = W/3 sec

W = (750 W)(3 sec)

<u>W = 2250 J</u>

c)

Here,

P = 750 W

t = ?

W = 1500 J

Therefore,

750 W = 1500 J/t

t = 1500 J/750 W

<u>t = 2 sec</u>

<u></u>

According to Kinetic Particle Theory, the molecules are tightly packed with each other, by strong inter-molecular forces and they can only vibrate at their position. While, molecules or particles in liquids have lesser attractive forces among them. They can move in layers and can take the shape of any container. <u>This is the reason why solid has a definite shape and liquid has none.</u>
