Answer:
179.47m/s
Explanation:
Using the law of conservation of momentum
m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v
m1 and m2 are the masses
u1 and u2 are the initial velocities
v is the final velocity
Substitute
7750(179)+72(230) = (7750+72)v
1,387,250+16560 = 7822v
1,403,810 = 7822v
v = 1,403,810/7822
v= 179.47m/s
Hence the final velocity of the probe is 179.47m/s

<span>Given:
3,500 kilometers
Find:</span>
Years for two continents to collide = ?
<span>Solution:
We know that </span>typical motions of one plate relative to another
are 1 centimeter per year.
So first, we convert 3,500 km to cm.<span>
</span><span>
</span>
The solution would be like this for this specific problem:
1 km = 100,000 cm
3,500 km x 100,000 = 350,000,000 cm
Since we know that 1 cm = 1 year, then that means
350,000,000 cm is equivalent to 350,000,000 years.
Therefore, it would take 350 million years for two continents
that are 3500 kilometers apart to collide.

To add, </span>a phenomenon of the plate tectonics of Earth that occurs at
convergent boundaries is called the continental collision.
