Answer:

speed=abs(v)=40ms^-1

Explanation:

acceleration, a = (v-u)/t

since initial velocity u=0 (at rest) and a=8ms^-2,

8=v/5

hence after 5 seconds, v=40ms^-1

Why do volcanoes form above subduction zones
Xelga [282]
Volcanoes form above subduction zones because Subduction zone volcanism occurs where two plates are converging on one another. One plate containing oceanic lithosphere descends beneath the adjacent plate, thus consuming the oceanic lithosphere into the earth's mantle. This on-going process is called subduction.

Betty is sitting on of her surfboard out in the ocean. She is waiting for the perfect wave to come along so she can ride it in t
givi [52]

Crest is the part of the wave which does this.

A sound wave is the sample of disturbance resulting from the movement of strength visiting through a medium, including air, water or every other liquid or stable remember as it propagates far from the supply of the sound.

The sound waves are generated by a sound source, such as the vibrating diaphragm of a stereo speaker. The sound source creates vibrations in the surrounding medium. because the supply continues to vibrate the medium, the vibrations propagate far from the supply at the rate of sound, hence forming the sound wave.

A sound wave is not a transverse wave with crests and troughs, however alternatively a longitudinal wave with compressions and rarefactions.
