Answer:

0.2 kg

Explanation:

Height of roof from the ground=h=30 m

Gravitational potential energy=P.E=58.8 J

We have to find the mass of the ball.

We know that

Gravitational potential energy of ball= mgh

Where g=9.8 m/s^2

Substitute the values

58.8=m\times 9.8\times 30

58.8=294 m

m=\frac{58.8}{294}

Using division property of equality

m=0.2 kg

Hence, the mass of ball=0.2 kg

We are given the gravitational potential energy and the height of the ball and is asked in the problem to determine the mass of the ball. the formula to be followed is PE = mgh where g is the gravitational acceleration equal to 9.81 m/s^2. substituting, 58.8 J = m*9.8 m/s^2 * 30 m; m = 0.2 kg.

What type of plate boundary do most volcanoes occur along
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

Subducting convergent boundary

Explanation:

Generally, volcanoes occurs in both divergent and convergent boundaries. But the convergent boundary it occurs is usually associated with subduction.

Divergent boundary, plates move away from each other creating a new crust in the process. The diverging plates creates the space for magma to be squeezed through cracks and fissures. The magma's erupt to form volcanoes. In the Atlantic ocean the spreading of the plates causes an upwelling of magma through the crest of the Atlantic ridges. New oceanic crust are formed through this process. Sometimes the magma eruption forms volcanoes  that are higher than the sea level.

Convergent boundary , plates collides with each other . But in the case of volcanoes existence , the collision should be between a denser  plate(oceanic plates) and a less dense plates(continental plates) so that subduction can take place. The subducted plates (oceanic plates)  creates trenches and get expose to high temperature and pressure as it sinks toward the mantle. The upper mantle rocks melts and migrate to the earth surface forming volcanoes . Over 75% of the volcanoes occur along the pacific basin where convergent boundary is dominant. Pacific ring of fire has one of the most number of volcanoes.

Match the descriptions with the graphs !
noname [10]

Answer:

Graph 1 matches with B, 2 with A, and 3 with C.

Explanation:

Graph 2 shows a car whose distance part of the graph is not going up or down, while the time going up. That means that the car is stopped. Graph 1 shows a straight line, meaning that the car is traveling at a constant speed. Graph 3 is a curved line, meaning the speed of the car is changing somehow, and since the line is becoming more horizontal, the car is getting slower.

How would you present weight change if earth had twice the mass that it does now
rosijanka [135]

Twice the mass means twice the acceleration due to gravity which will increase acceleration by the factor of 2 thus the weight will be double the time.
