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! :)

A stubborn, 100 kgkg mule sits down and refuses to move. To drag the mule to the barn, the exasperated farmer ties a rope around

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

No, the farmer is not able to move the mule.

Explanation:

Mass =100 kg

Force=F=800 N

The coefficient between the mule and the ground= $\mu_s=0.8$

$\mu_k=0.5$

Static friction force,f= $\mu N$

Normal force=N=mg

Static friction force,f= $\mu_s mg=0.8\times 100\times 9.8=784 N$

Using $g=9.8m/s^2$

F<f

Static friction force is greater than applied force.

Therefore , the farmer is not able to move the mule.

If a 1-megaton nuclear weapon is exploded

Elenna [48]

Answer:

1,780,000 N

Explanation:

0.2 atm × (1.013×10⁵ Pa/atm) = 20,260 Pa

Force = pressure × area

F = 20,260 Pa × (3.89 m × 22.6 m)

F = 1,780,000 N

What is the change in internal energy if 60 J of heat is released from a system and 30 J of work is done on the system? Use U =

k0ka [10]

The change in internal energy of the system is +30 J

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the first law of thermodynamics, which states that the change in internal energy of a system is given by the equation:

$\Delta U = Q -W$
