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! :)

Why does an energy transfer not always result in phase change?
mash [69]

Answer:

These energy exchanges are not changes in kinetic energy. They are changes in bonding energy between the molecules. "If heat is coming into a substance during a phase change, then this energy is used to break the bonds between the molecules of the substance

aleksley [76]
F should be 10. If The Whole top is 50cm, then we should subtract 10n and 30n which gives us 10.

Or it could be 15 if both top and bottom are 25. 10+15= 25.

Suppose that a planet were discovered between the sun and Mercury, with a circular orbit of radius equal to 2/3 of the average o
Musya8 [376]

Explanation:

It is given that,

A planet were discovered between the sun and Mercury, with a circular orbit of radius equal to 2/3 of the average orbit radius of Mercury.

Mass of the Sun, M=1.99\times 10^{30}\ kg

Radius of Mercury's orbit, r=5.79\times 10^{10}\ m

Radius of discovered planet, R=\dfrac{2}{3}r

R=\dfrac{2}{3}\times 5.79\times 10^{10}\ m=3.86\times 10^{10}\ m

Let T is the orbital period of such a planet. Using Kepler's third law of planetary motion as :

T^2\propto R^3

T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2R^3}{GM}

T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2\times (3.86\times 10^{10})^3}{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 1.99\times 10^{30}}

T=\sqrt{1.71\times 10^{13}}

T = 4135214.625 s

or

T = 47.86 days

So, the orbital period of such a planet is 47.86 days. Hence, this is the required solution.
