Option (C)

Explanation:

The magma in the hot-spot region are basaltic, they can move fast because of their low viscosity. Whereas, the magma present in the subduction zone are rhyolitic, and moves slowly due to its high viscosity. Viscosity of a magma is directly proportional to its silica content.

This is the difference between the volcanoes over a hot-spot region and over subduction zone.

Answer: Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

C. Volcanoes above subduction zones have lava that is not basaltic.

Answer: m∠P ≈ 46,42°

because using the law of sines in ΔPQR

=> sin 75°/ 4 = sin P/3

so ur friend is wrong due to confusion between edges

+) we have: sin 75°/4 = sin P/3

=> sin P = sin 75°/4 . 3 = (3√6 + 3√2)/16

=> m∠P ≈ 46,42°

Your answer should be precise to 0.1 m/s. Use a gravitational acceleration of 10 m/s/s. At it lowest point, a pendulum is moving

saw5 [17]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed, v₁ = 7.7 m/s

We need to find the velocity after it has risen 1 meter above the lowest point. Let it is given by v₂. Using the conservation of energy as :

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv_1^2=\dfrac{1}{2}mv_2^2+mgh$

$v_2^2=v_1^2-2gh$

$v_2^2=(7.7)^2-2\times 10\times 1$

$v_2=6.26\ m/s$

So, the velocity after it has risen 1 meter above the lowest point is 6.26 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

2. Why is natural selection a mechanism for biological change?

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

Natural selection is a simple mechanism that causes populations of living things to change over time. Organisms that are more adapted to their environment are more likely to survive and pass on the genes that aided their success.

The collision between a hammer and a nail can be considered to be approximately elastic. estimate the kinetic energy acquired by

Setler [38]

Here we can use momentum conservation as in this type of collision there is no external force on it

$m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1 v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}$
