At some convergent boundaries, an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate. Oceanic crust tends to be denser and thinner than continental crust, so the denser oceanic crust gets bent and pulled under, or subducted, beneath the lighter and thicker continental crust. This forms what is called a subduction zone.

Two aircraft rivets, one of iron and the other of copper, are placed in a calorimeter that has an initial temperature of 10°c.
Dominik [7]

a) Copper is at a higher temperature, so the flow of heat will take place from copper to iron. Heat is a form of energy, which always flows from higher temperature to lower temperature.  

b) To determine the actual final temperature, the heat capacity of the calorimeter must be known. A calorimeter constant refers to a constant, which quantifies the heat capacity of a calorimeter. It may be determined by using a known amount of heat to the calorimeter and measuring the corresponding change in temperature of the calorimeter.
