Answer:

When two plates collides of varying densities, one tends to subduct introducing volcanic material to the earth surface.  

Explanation:

The ring of fire is a geographical area where seismic and volcanic activities are prevalent. This region extend around the edge of the pacific plates and including smaller plates like the Juan de Faca plate, coccus plate and the Philippine plate .  The ring of fire is a place known for earthquake and volcanism due to the active plate boundary.

The plate boundaries around the rings of fire are known for subduction activities.

Usually, in a convergence boundary where continental crust collides with oceanic crust the more dense oceanic crust tends to subduct. The continental crust is less dense and possess more buoyancy. The less dense and buoyant nature of the continental crust will cause it to override the oceanic crust.

Generally, when oceanic crust and continental crust collides the oceanic crust subduct reaching the aesthenosphere area, Aesthenosphere material like magma are introduced to the earth surface through the subduction zone. The magma may creep through cracks and fissures or erupt to the earth surface. The subduction zone form trenches which is a prerequisite for  creating mountains, volcanisms and earthquakes.

Hello!

Subduction volcanism occurs where two plates are converging on one another. One plate containing oceanic lithospehe descends beneath the adjacent plate, consuming the oceanic lithosphere into the earth's mantle.

I really hope this helped you! :)

Please help! A net force of 2.0 N acts on a 2.0-kg object for 10 seconds. What is the object’s kinetic energy after that 10 seco
padilas [110]
For Newton's second law, the force F applied to the object of mass m will cause an acceleration a of the body:
F=ma
So, the acceleration is 
a= \frac{F}{m}= \frac{2.0 N}{2.0 kg}=1 m/s^2

The object undergoes through this acceleration for 10 seconds, t=10 s. Since it is an accelerated motion, we can find its final velocity after 10 seconds:
v_f = v_i + at=0 m/s+(1m/s^2)(10 s)=10 m/s
where v_i is the initial velocity of the object, which is zero since it starts from rest.

Finally we can calculate the final kinetic energy of the object, which is given by
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2= \frac{1}{2}(2.0 kg)(10 m/s)^2=100 J

kolbaska11 [484]

The snake and rat both share the same ancestor population that had a quadrate bone, which was inherited from an ancestor population.

<h3>What is a homo-logous structure?</h3>

A homo-logous structure is a trait that may or not have the same function but has a common evolutionary origin.

A homo-logous structure can be used to trace the evolutionary relationships between species.

Conversely, an analogous structure has the same function but it does not reflect an evolutionary origin.
