Volcanic islands, Mountain ranges

Explanation:

A convergent margin is plate boundary in which plates comes together. There are different types of interactions that occurs around a place where plate converges.

An ocean-continent convergence creates a subduction zone in which the denser oceanic plate sinks beneath the less dense continental crust.
As the oceanic plate begins to subside, it can melt and form chains of volcanic island within the riding continents.
Also, where two plates of equal densities converge, none of them subsides and this leads to upbuilding.
The product can be seen as extensive mountain ranges on earth like the Andes and Himalayas.

The mass of Object 2 is double the mass of Object 5. The mass of Object 4 is half of the mass of Object 5 and the mass of Object

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

This is a great problem if you like getting tied up in knots
and making smoke come out of your brain.

I found that it makes the problem a lot easier if I give the objects some
numbers. I'm going to say that the mass of Object 5 is 20 clods.

Let the mass of Mass of Object 5 be 20 clods .

Then . . .

-- The mass of Object 2 is double the mass of Object 5 = 40 clods.

-- The mass of Object 4 is half of the mass of Object 5 = 10 clods.
and
-- the mass of Object 3 is half of the mass of Object 4 = 5 clods.

So now, here are the masses:

Object #1 . . . . . unknown
Object #2 . . . . . 40 clods
Object #3 . . . . . 5 clods
Object #4 . . . . . 10 clods
Object #5 . . . . . 20 clods .

Now let's check out the statements, and see how they stack up:

Choice-A:
Object 3 and Object 5 exert the same gravitational force on Object 1.
Can't be.
Objects #3 and #5 have different masses, so they can't both
exert the same force on the same mass.

Choice-B.
Object 2 and Object 4 exert the same gravitational force on Object 1.
Can't be.
Objects #2 and #4 have different masses, so they can't both
exert the same force on the same mass.

Choice-C.
The gravitational force between Object 1 and Object 2 is greater than
the gravitational force between Object 1 and Object 4.
Yes ! Yay !
Object-2 has more mass than Object-4 has, so it must exert more force on
ANYTHING than Object-4 does, (as long as the distances are the same).

Choice-D.
The gravitational force between Object 1 and Object 3 is greater than the gravitational force between Object 1 and Object 5.
Can't be.
Object-3 has less mass than Object-5 has, so it must exert less force on
ANYTHING than Object-4 does, (as long as the distances are the same).

Conclusion:
If the DISTANCE is the same for all the tests, then Choice-C is
the only one that can be true.

Block A has a mass of 0.5kg, and block B has a mass of 2kg. Block is is released at a height of 0.75 meters above B. The coeffic

VikaD [51]

Answer:

0.075 m

Explanation:

The picture of the problem is missing: find it in attachment.

At first, block A is released at a distance of

h = 0.75 m

above block B. According to the law of conservation of energy, its initial potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, so we can write:

$m_Agh=\frac{1}{2}m_Av_A^2$

where

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration due to gravity

$m_A=0.5 kg$ is the mass of the block

$v_A$ is the speed of the block A just before touching block B

Solving for the speed,

$v_A=\sqrt{2gh}=\sqrt{2(9.8)(0.75)}=3.83 m/s$

Then, block A collides with block B. The coefficient of restitution in the collision is given by:

$e=\frac{v'_B-v'_A}{v_A-v_B}$

where:

e = 0.7 is the coefficient of restitution in this case

$v_B'$ is the final velocity of block B

$v_A'$ is the final velocity of block A

$v_A=3.83 m/s$

$v_B=0$ is the initial velocity of block B

Solving,

$v_B'-v_A'=e(v_A-v_B)=0.7(3.83)=2.68 m/s$

Re-arranging it,

$v_A'=v_B'-2.68$ (1)

Also, the total momentum must be conserved, so we can write:

$m_A v_A + m_B v_B = m_A v'_A + m_B v'_B$

where

$m_B=2 kg$

And substituting (1) and all the other values,

$m_A v_A = m_A (v_B'-2.68) + m_B v_B'\\v_B' = \frac{m_A v_A +2.68 m_A}{m_A + m_B}=1.30 m/s$

This is the velocity of block B after the collision. Then, its kinetic energy is converted into elastic potential energy of the spring when it comes to rest, according to

$\frac{1}{2}m_B v_B'^2 = \frac{1}{2}kx^2$
