Answer:

Ocean-Ocean Convergence

As the subducting plate is pushed deeper into the mantle, it melts. The magma this creates rises and erupts. This forms a line of volcanoes, known as an island arc

Itzel travels south 4 miles and then goes east 2 miles and then north 10 miles. What is her displacement? Round your answer to t
expeople1 [14]

The displacement of Itzel according to the question is 6.3 miles SW

Displacement is defined as the distance moved by a body in a specified direction

Find the diagram attached

From the diagram given, we can see that AB is the displacement

To get the length AB, we will have to use the Pythagoras theorem:

AB^2=2^2+ 6^2\\AB^2 ^2=4+36\\AB^2=40\\AB=\sqrt{40}\\AB= 6.3 miles\\

From the diagram, we can also se that the direction of the displacement in the South West direction.

Hence the displacement of Itzel according to the question is 6.3 miles SW

The potential energy of a particle experiencing a certain kind of force is given by U(x) = 2x + 8 x measured in joules (J), for
masha68 [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Potential Energy of a particle is given by U(x)=2x+\frac{8}{x}

For minimum or maximum Potential Energy differentiate U(x) w.r.t x

\frac{\mathrm{d} U}{\mathrm{d} x}=2-\frac{8}{x^2}

putting \frac{\mathrm{d} }{\mathrm{d} x}=0

2-\frac{8}{x^2}=0

x^2=\frac{8}{2}

x^2=4

x=\sqrt{4}=\pm 2

To know minimum value check \frac{\mathrm{d^2} U}{\mathrm{d} x^2}

at x=-2

\frac{\mathrm{d^2} U}{\mathrm{d} x^2}=\frac{16}{x^3}=-\frac{16}{8}=-2

so at x=-2 potential energy is minimum U=-8\ J
