Describe how an island arc forms at a convergent boundry

Physics

7 0

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

What properties of a sound wave determine volume, pitch, and timbre?
fiasKO [112]
Sound waves are changes in pressure generated by vibrating molecules. The physical characteristics of sound waves influence the three psychological features of sound: loudness, pitch, and timbre. Loudness depends on the amplitude,or height, of sound waves. The greater the amplitude, the louder the sound perceived.

Radar uses radio waves of a wavelength of 2.9 m . The time interval for one radiation pulse is 100 times larger than the time of
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

145 m

Explanation:

Given:

Wavelength (λ) = 2.9 m  

we know,

c = f × λ  

where,

c = speed of light ; 3.0 x 10⁸ m/s

f = frequency  

thus,

f=\frac{c}{\lambda}

substituting the values in the equation we get,

f=\frac{3.0\times 10^8 m/s}{2.9m}

f = 1.03 x 10⁸Hz  

Now,

The time period (T) = \frac{1}{f}

or

T =  \frac{1}{1.03\times 10^8}  = 9.6 x 10⁻⁹ seconds  

thus,

the time interval of one pulse = 100T = 9.6 x 10⁻⁷ s  

Time between pulses = (100T×10) = 9.6 x 10⁻⁶ s  

Now,

For radar to detect the object the pulse must hit the object and come back to the detector.

Hence, the shortest distance will be half the distance travelled by the pulse back and forth.

Distance = speed × time = 3 x 10^8 m/s × 9.6 x 10⁻⁷ s) = 290 m {Back and forth}  

Thus, the minimum distance to target = \frac{290}{2} = 145 m
