What geologic features might form at the surface of plate A?

1 answer:

4 0

"Plate A" is an oceanic plate.

The structures that may form on oceanic plates include volcanoes and volcanic island arcs. This occurs due to the collision of two convergent plates. One plate slips over the other and a subduction zone results. These give rise to deep ocean trenches as well as active volcanoes.

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

$r=0.41m$

Explanation:

Torque is defined as the cross product between the position vector ( the lever arm vector connecting the origin to the point of force application) and the force vector.

$\tau=r\times F$

Due to the definition of cross product, the magnitude of the torque is given by:

$\tau=rFsin\theta$

Where $\theta$ is the angle between the force and lever arm vectors. So, the length of the lever arm (r) is minimun when $sin\theta$ is equal to one, solving for r:

$r=\frac{\tau}{F}\\r=\frac{55\frac{N}{m}}{135N}\\r=0.41m$

A 3.45-kg centrifuge takes 100 s to spin up from rest to its final angular speed with constant angular acceleration. A point loc

Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

(a) 18.75 rad/s²

(b) 14920.78 rev

Explanation:

(a)

First we find the acceleration of the centrifuge using,

a = (v-u)/t......................... Equation 1

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t = time.

Given: v = 150 m/s, u = 0 m/s ( from rest), t = 100 s

Substitute into equation 1

a = (150-0)/100

a = 1.5 m/s²

Secondly we calculate for the angular acceleration using

α = a/r..................... Equation 2

Where α = angular acceleration, r = radius of the centrifuge

Given: a = 1.5 m/s², r = 8 cm = 0.08 m

substitute into equation 2

α = 1.5/0.08

α = 18.75 rad/s²

(b)

Using,

Ф = (ω'+ω).t/2........................... Equation 3

Where Ф = number of revolution of the centrifuge, ω' = initial angular velocity, ω = Final angular velocity.

But,

ω = v/r and ω' = u/r

therefore,

Ф = (u/r+v/r).t/2

where u = 0 m/s (at rest), = 150 m/s, r = 0.08 m, t = 100 s

Ф = [(0/0.08)+(150/0.08)].100/2

Ф = 93750 rad

If,

1 rad = 0.159155 rev,

Ф = (93750×0.159155) rev

Ф = 14920.78 rev
