Which of the following types of lithospheric crusts collide to produce large mountains such as the Himalayan mountains?

A wave has a speed of 30 m/s, a frequency of 6 Hz, and a wavelength of 5 m. If the wavelength remains constant, and the frequency is doubled, what is the new speed of the wave?

Two buses leave St. Louis from the same station. One leaves at 5:00 PM, traveling north to Chicago at an average speed of 50 mph. The second leaves at 5:30 PM, traveling south to New Orleans, also at an average speed of 50 mph.

A fan is to accelerate quiescent air to a velocity of 12.5 m/s at a rate of 9 m3/s. Determine the minimum power that must be supplied to the fan. Take the density of air to be 1.18 kg/m3.

In which situation will the lowest resistance occur?
