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 object travels with a constant speed in a circular path. The net force on the object is
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

toward the center

Explanation:

Before answering, let's remind the first two Newton Laws:

1) An object at rest tends to stay at rest and an object moving at constant velocity tends to continue its motion at constant velocity, unless acted upon a net force

2) An object acted upon a net force F experiences an acceleration a according to the equation

F=ma

where m is the mass of the object.

In this problem, we have an object travelling at constant speed in a circular path. The fact that the trajectory of the object is circular means that the direction of motion of the object is constantly changing: this means that its velocity is changing, so it has an acceleration. And therefore, a net force is acting on it. The force that keeps the object travelling in the circular path is called centripetal force, and it is directed towards the center of the circle (because it prevents the object from continuing its motion straight away).

So, the correct answer is

toward the center

A jogger travels a route that has two parts. The first is a displacement of 3 km due south, and the second involves a displaceme
spayn [35]

Answer:

a) 2.41 km

b) 38.8°

Questions c and d are illegible.

Explanation:

We can express the displacements as vectors with origin on the point he started (0, 0).

When he traveled south he moved to (-3, 0).

When he moved east he moved to (-3, x)

The magnitude of the total displacement is found with Pythagoras theorem:

d^2 = dx^2 + dy^2

Rearranging:

dy^2 = d^2 - dx^2

dy = \sqrt{d^2 - dx^2}

dy = \sqrt{3.85^2 - 3^2}  = 2.41 km

The angle of the displacement vector is:

cos(a) = dx/d

a = arccos(dx/d)

a = arccos(3/3.85) = 38.8°

Statistical time division multiplexing does not require the capacity of the circuit to be equal to the sum of the combined circu
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

The answer is True

Explanation:

Statistical Multiplexing is considered an example of communication link sharing which makes it comparable to DBA (Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation). Here, communication channels are broken down into data streams to optimize the communication process.

In Statistical Time-division Multiplexing, time slots are allocated to data streams for communication optimization. This method makes sure that no time slot or bandwidth is wasted.

Hence, the sum of combined circuits must not be equal to the capacity of the circuit to work effectively.

Why are bells made up of metals instead of wood?
Morgarella [4.7K]
The main reason why bells are made up of metals instead of wood is because metal is much more dense than wood, meaning that it resonates at much stronger frequencies. Wood has far too much air in it to make loud noises when struck.
