Answer:

The denser plate is subducted underneath the less dense plate

Explanation:

When two oceanic plates collide one oceanic plate is eventually subducted under the other. ... When two oceanic plates collide, the denser plate is subducted and some material rises upward and forms an ISLAND.

Answer:

C (I think)

Explanation:

Because when two oceanic plates converge, the denser plate will end up sinking below/under the less dense plate. Forms a subduction zone.

Young's experiment is performed with light of wavelength 502 nm from excited helium atoms. Fringes are measured carefully on a s
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

0.88 mm

Explanation:

Given

Wavelength of the atoms, λ = 502 nm = 502*10^-9 m

Radius of the screen away from the double slit, r = 1 m

We know that Y(20) = 11.4*10^-3 m

d = (20 * R * λ) / Y(20)

d = (20 * 1 * 502*10^-9)/11.4*10^-3

d = 1*10^-5 / 11.4*10^-3

d = 0.88 mm

Therefore, the distance of separation between the two slits is 0.88 mm

An airplane went from 120 m/s to 180 m/s in 4.0 seconds. What was its acceleration?
scoundrel [369]
<span>15 m/s^2 The first thing to calculate is the difference between the final and initial velocities. So 180 m/s - 120 m/s = 60 m/s So the plane changed velocity by a total of 60 m/s. Now divide that change in velocity by the amount of time taken to cause that change in velocity, giving 60 m/s / 4.0 s = 15.0 m/s^2 Since you only have 2 significaant figures, round the result to 2 significant figures giving 15 m/s^2</span>

I need help with 2 questions . Please help c:
dezoksy [38]
A) According to the nebular theory, the Solar System formed from a huge gaseous nebula which at a certain point was perturbated. Atoms and molecules started colliding, forming planetesimals (a sort of big rocks). The planetesimals were attracted to each other by gravity, forming bigger warm almost spherical objects called protoplanets, which at the end cooled down forming planets.
Therefore the correct answer is "all of the above".

b) The planets closer to the Sun were (and still are) subject to higher temperatures, due to their close distance to the Sun. In these conditions, rocky materials undergo condensation, while iced gaseous materials undergo vaporization. In the outer parts of the Solar System temperatures are too low to allow these transformations.
The correct answer is again "all of the above".
