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).

An alarm clock has a resistance of 14,000 ohms and is plugged into a 120-volt outlet. How much power does the clock use?
yan [13]

Power used by the clock=1.03 W

Explanation:

resistance= 14000 ohm

voltage=120 V

The formula for the power is given by

P=\frac{V^{2}}{R}

P=(120)²/14000

P=1.03 W

A stone is launched from the ground, at a 70° angle, with an initial velocity of 120 m/s.
zavuch27 [327]
<span>A) x = 41t
    The classic equation for distance is velocity multiplied by time. And unfortunately, all of your available options have the form of that equation. In fact, the only difference between any of the equations is what looks to be velocity. And in order to solve the problem initially, you need to divide the velocity vector into a vertical velocity vector and a horizontal velocity vector. And the horizontal velocity vector is simply the cosine of the angle multiplied by the total velocity. So H = 120*cos(70) = 120*0.34202 = 41.04242 So the horizontal velocity is about 41 m/s. Looking at the available options, only "A" even comes close.</span>

How did foucaults pendulum and coriolis effect are used to demonstrate earths tilt?
HACTEHA [7]
They do not demonstrate Earth's tilt. In fact, they're not "used" to demonstrate anything. It works the other way:. When you observe the Coriolis effect and the behavior of the Foucault pendulum, and you try to explain why the behave the way they do, one possible simple explanation for both of them is the Earth's ROTATION. Then, when you also observe the rising and setting of the sun and moon, and you also notice how the NUMBERS all go together, the case for the rotating, spherical Earth gets stronger and stronger.

Throwing a football is an example of force because
siniylev [52]

Answer:

i found this provided by the San Francisco 49ers (found on Khan Academy)

Explanation:

I HOPE THIS HELPS!!!

So, what is a force? A force is a push or a pull exerted on one object from another. Forces make things move. You can make something start or stop when you push or pull an object.

There are many different types of forces in action in football. A player kicking a football is a force that makes the football fly through the air. A quarterback throwing a football is another example of a force that makes the football fly in a game.

When studying the concept of force, we can look to history to find mathematical principles that guide the laws of motion. Sir Isaac Newton was one of the most famous scientists of the 17th century to study the laws of forces and motion. Through careful study of how objects react to various forces, Newton developed the Three Laws of Motion. Below are explanations of each law and how these laws can be applied to football.

If two connected points objects pass through the same set of three points, the shapes created by each will be identical, regardl
NeX [460]

Answer:

This is false

Explanation:

This is why the answer to this question is false. If these types of objects (2 points connected) should pass through same sets of 3 points, irrespective of the order that each object was plotted, we will not get identical shapes created.

The shape that is going to be created will be dependent on the pattern/order that was involved in the plotting. If it was identical, then we will have identical shapes. But if the order during plotting is different then we will have different shapes created.

Thank you!
