If a material blocks gamma radiation, then it will probably protect against alpha and beta radiation. Alpha particles are large and slow-moving, thus having very little penetrating power. Beta particles are fast-moving, and can penetrate the human flesh up to 1 or 2 centimeters. Gamma particles, however, have great penetration and can easily pass through the human flesh.
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
can form mountains and volcanoes.
Convergent faults <u>can form mountains and volcanoes</u>.
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- Convergent plates boundary are created when two tectonic plates collide such that one of the converging plates will move beneath the other forming a subduction zone. The process is called subduction.
- <u>Convergent faults happen when plates move toward one another
, and can form volcanoes and also create mountains.</u>
- At convergent plate boundaries where two plates move toward each other a compressive stress takes place
We need to apply the following expression
Vf = Vo + a.t
Where a is the acceleration
t is the time it takes to achieve Speed Vf
And Vo the initial speed
In this problem Vo = 60 miles/hour
Vf = 0 (comes to a stop)
t = 4 seconds
a = -60 [miles/hours] / 4 [s] = -15 miles/hour/second (negative as it goes in the opposite direction)
Water vapor coming from the soil is called transpiration. That is the process in which a planet releases water vapor from its leaves. Hoped that helped!!
