What causes hot spot volcanoes to form?

Physics
1 answer:
den301095 [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

A volcanic "hotspot" is an area in the mantle from which heat rises as a thermal plume from deep in the Earth. High heat and lower pressure at the base of the lithosphere (tectonic plate) facilitates melting of the rock. This melt, called magma, rises through cracks and erupts to form volcanoes.

a tire with inner volume of 0.0250m^3 is filled with air at a gauge pressure of 36.0 psi. If the tire valve is opened to the atm
enyata [817]

Answer: Escaped volume = 0.0612m^3

Explanation:

According to Boyle's law

P1V1 = P2V2

P1 = initial pressure in the tire = 36.0psi + 14.696psi = 50.696psi (guage + atmospheric pressure)

P2 = atmospheric pressure= 14.696psi

V1 = volume of tire =0.025m^3

V2 = escaped volume + V1 ( since air still remain in the tire)

V2 = P1V1/P2

V2 = 50.696×0.025/14.696

V2 = 0.0862m^3

Escaped volume = 0.0862 - 0.025 = 0.0612m^3
