Answer; 
<span>Terrane accretion generally occurs along a convergent boundary between a continental plate and an oceanic plate.

Explanation; 
</span>Terrane<span> accretion occur at convergent plate boundaries, however, it may be possible for a </span>terrane<span> to be brought from an exotic location along a transform plate boundary.
Additionally, it is also likely for a new divergent plate boundary to develop that rifts a continent apart.</span>

so classmate states that continental drift could not be possible because it would take far too much force to move tectonic plate
Juliette [100K]
Any student who states that tectonic plates are too massive to move doesn't understand how much heat exists in the center of the earth. This heat is capable of moving the most massive of plates.

Illustrate a body of mass 5.0kg pulled by horizontal force F . if the body accelerates 2.0ms² and experience a frictional force
Natasha2012 [34]

Explanation:

a. Net force is mass times acceleration (Newton's second law).

∑F = ma

∑F = (5.0 kg) (2.0 m/s²)

∑F = 10 N

b. The net force is the sum of the individual forces.

10 N = F − 5 N

F = 15 N

c. Friction force here is mgμ.

mgμ = 5 N

(5.0 kg) (10 m/s) μ = 5 N

μ = 0.1

Light strikes a 5.0-cm thick sheet of glass at an angle of incidence in air of 50°. the sheet has parallel faces and the glass h
mestny [16]
<span>Answer: sin(incidence)/sin(refraction) = n_refraction/n_incidence sin(50) / sin(x) = 1.5 / 1 sin(50)/1.5 = sin(x) sin(x) = 0.511 x = 30.71o B] 50 degrees, same as the angle going in. You can show that by reversing the steps in A. sin(30.7)/sin(x) = 1/1.5 C] The glass is 5 cm thick. The reference angle = 30.7o Tan(30.7) = displacement / thickness Tan(30.7) = x / 5 5*sin(30.7) = x x = 2.97 cm which is the displacement.</span>
