Answer:

Greater acceleration of the plates towards each other

Explanation:

If more force is added to the convection currents, there would be a greater acceleration of the plates towards each other.

A lithospheric plate is driven by underlying asthenosphere which is ductile and readily flows. The plate lies on the asthenosphere.

The rate of movement of the asthenosphere determines the rate at which the plate above is moving.

The greater the convection below, the faster the plate moves.

A car leaves an intersection traveling west. Its position 4 sec later is 21 ft from the intersection. At the same time, another

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

15.8 ft/s

Explanation:

$\frac{da}{dt}$ = Velocity of car A = 9 ft/s

a = Distance car A travels = 21 ft

$\frac{db}{dt}$ = Velocity of car B = 13 ft/s

b = Distance car B travels = ft

c = Distance between A and B after 4 seconds = √(a²+b²) = √(21²+28²) = √1225 ft

From Pythagoras theorem

a²+b² = c²

Now, differentiating with respect to time

$2a\frac{da}{dt}+2b\frac{db}{dt}=2c\frac{dc}{dt}\\\Rightarrow a\frac{da}{dt}+b\frac{db}{dt}=c\frac{dc}{dt}\\\Rightarrow \frac{dc}{dt}=\frac{a\frac{da}{dt}+b\frac{db}{dt}}{c}\\\Rightarrow \frac{dc}{dt}=\frac{21\times 9+28\times 13}{\sqrt{1225}}\\\Rightarrow \frac{dc}{dt}=15.8\ ft/s$

∴ Rate at which distance between the cars is increasing three hours later is 15.8 ft/s
