What is a force that is causing the plates to move at a midocean ridge?
friction - convection currents in the mantle drag the plates away from the hot rising zone below the ridgegravity - gravity pulls down on the cold dense plate being subducted under the continent, dragging the plate away from the ridge
The SI unit of the drag force?
If you consider drag as a force, that would be Newtons.If you consider drag as a force, that would be Newtons.If you consider drag as a force, that would be Newtons.If you consider drag as a force, that would be Newtons.
How do you calculate drag coefficient when you are not given drag force?
Using empirical correlations such as the Dallavalle equation or a chart which plots Drag coefficient vs. Reynolds Number.
What is the unit used to measure drag force?
(Low altitudes, normal temperatures / pressures, ordinary speeds.) > Drag due to moving through the air, depends on the velocity and the objects drag coefficient in the equation: > drag force (newtons) = velocity2 * drag coefficient > some (typical) drag coefficients: saloon car : 0.40 115 hp motorcycle ( with fairing) 0.23 person in freefall : 0.16
Why do tall mountains form at converging tectonic plate boundraies but not typically at sliding or diverging tectonic plate boundaries?
From Plate Tectonics 101, mountain ranges are not formed at sliding plate boundaries because the forces at work just drag the plates past each other. There isn't much "up" force associated with that. Mountain formation requires that "up" force, uplift, and it ain't there where plates slide. When plates diverge, a tear is formed with the resultant creation of a depression. The Red Sea was formed by the divergence of the African (Nubian) plate and the Arabian plate. The two plates are continuing to move apart, by the way. The convergence of plates creates mountains, and the classic (best) example is probably the plate boundary between the Indian plate and the Eurasian plate. The northern part of the Indian plate is pushing hard into the southern part of the Eurasian plate. An irresistible force has met an immovable object. At the boundary, the plates engaged edges are crumpling, and the earth is being uplifted. A lot. The highest mountain in the world, and a bunch of the top ten tallest peaks, are all right there. The force exerted along the plate boundaries is unimaginable. And it's still pushing things higher.
What is a basal drag?
It is a force that could be contributing or complementing mantle convectional currents in the movements of lithospheric or tectonic plates. This force is generated when there is friction between convectional currents and the lithospheric or tectonic plate that lies above.
When did Drag Race Eliminator happen?
Drag Race Eliminator happened in 1986.
When did Drag Racer - video game - happen?
Drag Racer - video game - happened in 2003.
What are 3 forces that causes tectonic plates to move?
This will be in detail for your information. 3 driving forces of plate motion...one plate moves underneath the other or a continental collision (if the 2... cause the gravitational sliding of lithosphere plates away from them...
Why are nose cones on rockets?
The pointed end reduces flat-plate drag so that maximum speed can be induced from the thrust.
What happened to lee Hayes from American hot rod?
Saw him this past weekend at the Barona Drag Strip in Ramona, Ca. running his mini-drag bike (Mini Bike).
What is drag force flow meter?
A drag-type flow meter is disclosed of the type having a drag plate disposed in the fluid flow stream, the velocity of which is to be measured. The drag plate is mounted on a cantilevered arm which is pivitally mounted externally of the fluid flow passage, with a tensioned wire counteracting the drag force tending to pivot the arm. The tensioned wire is disposed in a magentic field and an electrical current is passed through the wire to cause vibration of the wire, the frequency of which varies linearly with the drag force exerted on the drag plate due to the corresponding change in wire tension. Varying frequency of the current provides a digital electrical signal which varies linearly with fluid flow velocity. Embodiments are described enclosing the wire mounting components in a vacuum housing in order to minimize the air damping of the wire vibration, and a mounting arrangement minimizing the effects of temperature variation on the output signal.
How do you equip the chest plates in apokalyx?
Drag the plate to the image of your character beside your inventory instead of using the equiping area below. It will equip and show up in both spots.
I just died on the dragon slayer quest what do i do now?
wat u do is buy get armdly plate body verc helm anti drag then get dimond e then kill it easy
3 forms of drag?
Drag Queen Drag Racing Drag of a cigarette Helpful no?
Does a clio 182 clutch and cover plate fit a 5 gt turbo flywheel?
yes it does fit re fit the pressure plate in a different position but you have to re drill the holes in the flywheel and re doul it and then get it rebalanced . only nesscerly if your using the car for drag racing as the ap paddle clutches are fine for track use and road use but start sliping if used with slicks for drag racing more info at rtoc.org.
