225 million years ago (Ma) India was a large island situated off the Australian coast and separated from Asia by the Tethys Ocean. The supercontinent Pangea began to break up 200 Ma and India started a northward drift towards Asia. 80 Ma India was 6,400 km south of the Asian continent but moving towards it at a rate of between 9 and 16 cm per year. At this time Tethys Ocean floor would have been subducting northwards beneath Asia and the plate margin would have been a Convergent oceanic-continental one just like the Andes today.

Answer:

This immense mountain range began to form between 40 and 50 million years ago, when two large landmasses, India and Eurasia, driven by plate movement, collided. ... Artist's conception of the 6,000-km-plus northward journey of the "India" landmass (Indian Plate) before its collision with Asia (Eurasian Plate).

No. She would be doing the same amount of work that way. Work is defined to be equal to the force multiplied by the distance. Carrying two bags at a time would cause her to exert twice the effort, so the total amount of work done in the end would still be the same.

Eric has a mass of 80 kgkg. He is standing on a scale in an elevator that is accelerating downward at 1.7 m/s2m/s2. What is the
kolezko [41]

Answer:

The answer will be 936 N.

Explanation:

Given that

m = 80 kg

Acceleration of the elevator , a= 1.7 m/s²  ( upward)

The gravity force on the mass = m g

The reading on the scale = F N

Now by applying the Newton's second law

F - m g = ma

F= m g + m a

F= m ( g +a )

F= 80 ( 10 + 1.7 ) N                                  ( take g= 10 m/s²)

F=80 x 11.7 N

F= 936 N

Therefore the reading on the scale will be 936 N.

The answer will be 936 N.

explain how the composition of a star that will form a billon years in the future will differ the composition of our sun.
Grace [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Basically the star slowly burns its hydrogen into Helium. Depending on the mass, the star will have a turbulent core where the Helium will be fully mixed or a radiative core where the helium will settle at the centre (remember it's heavier than Hydrogen). The second case is what happens in the Sun.
