The forces that drive Plate Tectonics include: Convection in the Mantle (heat driven) Ridge push (gravitational force at the spreading ridges) Slab pull (gravitational force in subduction zones)

The question is defective. Nothing on the list is a force.

Subduction, convection, converging, and spreading are all DRIVEN by forces, but no force has been named yet.

Since unbalanced forces acts on the spheres, the aim of increasing the release distance of the spheres is to observe the effect of unbalanced forces acting on the spheres.

<h3>What is an experiment?</h3>

An experiment is a study whose objective is to study cause and effect relationships. In this case, the students had to increase the distance at which the spheres was released.

The aim of increasing the release distance of the spheres is to observe the effect of unbalanced forces acting on the spheres.

A projectile is fired with an initial speed of 37.0 m/s at an angle of 43.7 ∘ above the horizontal on a long flat firing range.
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

The maximum height reached by the projectile is 33.34 m

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the projectile, u = 37 m/s

angle of projection, θ = 43.7°

The maximum height reached by the projectile = ?

Apply the following kinematic equation, to determine the maximum height reached by the projectile.

Maximum height (H) is given as;

H = \frac{u^2 sin^2\theta}{2g}\\\\ H = \frac{(37)^2 (sin 43.7)^2}{2*9.8}\\\\H = 33.34 \ m

Therefore, the maximum height reached by the projectile is 33.34 m

If a body is thrown up with an initial velocity 'u' and covers a maximum height of 'h' , then 'h' is equal to u²/2g
baherus [9]

Answer:

1/2 m u^2     initial Kinetic Energy of body

m g h        Potential Energy body attains as it rises to height

1/2 m u^2 = m g h      conversion of KE to PE

h = u^2 / ( 2  g)
