Answer:

vps = vbr + vrs - vpb

Explanation:

  • If the passenger were at rest, his speed relative to the shore will be identical to the boat's, as follows:
  • vps = vbr + vrs
  • As he is moving in a direction opposite to the boat's, his velocity relative to the shore must be less than if he were at rest, in the same quantity that he was moving opposite to the boat, as follows:
  • vps = vbr+ vrs -vpb

When two oceanic plates converge, the plate with a greater density will subduct. This plate will partially melt, causing the for
N76 [4]

Answer:

Island arc

Explanation:

When two oceanic plates share a convergent type of plate boundary, the denser oceanic plate will subduct below the less dense oceanic plate. This will result in the formation of the subduction zone, where the rocks are being pulled down to the mantle. This subduction zone is typically marked by the presence of a narrow depression commonly known as an oceanic trench, that lies just above the zone.

The rocks of the subducting plate undergo partial melting and mix up with the magma that rises upwards towards the surface due to the force exerted by the convection currents. This later gives rise to the formation of volcanoes or a chain of volcanoes which are commonly known as an island arc.
