What type of plate boundary decreases the amount of the Earth's crust?

Physics
1 answer:
rosijanka [135]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Convergent.

Explanation:

Just as oceanic crust is formed at mid-ocean ridges, it is destroyed in subduction zones. Subduction is the important geologic process in which a tectonic plate made of dense lithospheric material melts or falls below a plate made of less-dense lithosphere at a convergent plate boundary.

A horizontal force of 400 N is exerted on a 2.0-kg ball as it rotates (at
frutty [35]

Answer:

the speed of the ball is 10 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

magnitude of exerted force, F = 400 N

mass of the ball, m = 2 kg

radius of the circle, r = 0.5

The speed of the ball is calculated by applying centripetal force formula;

F = \frac{mv^2}{r} \\\\v^2 = \frac{Fr}{m}\\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{Fr}{m}}\\\\ v = \sqrt{\frac{400*0.5}{2}}\\\\v = 10 \ m/s

Therefore, the speed of the ball is 10 m/s

Water is, indeed, an exception. Normally when temperature drops, material shrinks. Water doesn't, water expands instead.

A box is held at rest by two ropes that form 30° angles with the vertical. The tension T in either rope is 42 N. What is the wei
Kipish [7]

Answer:

w = 73 N

Explanation:

Since the box is held by the ropes it means that the resulting tension is equal to the weight of the box

T_res = w

Now, the resulting tension is a combination of the tension of each rope.

Since we want to find the vertical component we must multiply by the cosine of 30 degrees the value of T

T_res =  T*cos(30) + T*cos(30)

T_res = 2*(42 N)*(0.866)

T_res = 72.746 N

T_res = w = 72.746 N

Se realiza un experimento en el que se mide el alargamiento de un muelle debido a la acción de una pesa; se trata de comprobar l
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

m = 1,975 m / kg , b = 38.05 m

Explanation:

In this experiment, the elongation is plotted against the applied mass

getting a straight line

            y = m x + b

 

where b would be the initial length of spring let's calculate the slope for which we use two well separated points

           m = (56.3 -48.4) / (8 - 4)

           m = 1,975 m / kg

the equation remains

         y = 1,975 x + b

for x = 2 kg y = 42.0 m

we substitute in the equation

           42 = 1,975 2 + b

           b = 42 - 3.95

           b = 38.05 m
