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 positive charge is moved from one point to another point along an equipotential surface. The work required to move the charge
Strike441 [17]

Answer:zero

Explanation:

Work done in moving a charge is zero in equipotential  surface because potential of each point is same .

When there is Potential gradient then some particle experiences a force while moving but in equipotential surface there is no potential gradient , that is why work done in moving a charge is zero.

Nuclear fusion occurs in stars. True or false
Butoxors [25]
<span>nuclear fusion is observed in stars coming from the combination of two hydrogens to form an atom of helium. Fusion means combination of two or more elements. helium is known to fuel energy which in this case, the great sun which is more than a million Kelvin in temperature already today. hence the answer is true.</span>

¿Qué entiendes por un fenómeno eléctrico?​
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

English        

Electrical phenomena are commonplace and unusual events that can be observed and that illuminate the principles of the physics of electricity and are explained by them. Electrical phenomena are a somewhat arbitrary division of electromagnetic phenomena

A 65 kg students is walking on a slackline, a length of webbing stretched between two trees. the line stretches and sags so that
polet [3.4K]

Answer : Tension in the line = 936.7 N

Explanation :

It is given that,

Mass of student, m = 65 kg

The angle between slackline and horizontal, \theta=20^0

The two forces that acts are :

(i) Tension

(ii) Weight

So, from the figure it is clear that :

mg=2T\ sin\ \theta

T=\dfrac{mg}{2\ sin\theta}

T=\dfrac{65\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2}{2(sin\ 20)}

T=936.7\ N

Hence, this is the required solution.

The copper windings of a motor have a resistance of 50 Ω at 20° C when the motor is idle. After the motor has run for several ho
Drupady [299]

Answer:

The temperature of the windings are 60.61 °C

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Resistance = 50 Ω

Temperature = 20.0 °C

After the motor has run for several hours the resistance rises to 58Ω.

Step 2: Calculate the new temperature

Formula: R = Rref(1 + α(T-Tref))

⇒with α = temperature coëfficiënt of Cupper at 20 °C = 0.00394/°C

⇒with Tref = reference temperature = 20°C

⇒with T = end temperature = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with R = resistance at end temperature = 58Ω

⇒with Rref = resistance at reference temperature =  50 Ω

==> T = (R/Rref - 1)/α + Tref  

T = (58/50) - 1 )/ 0.00394 + 20

   T = 60.61 °C

The temperature of the windings are 60.61 °C
