In normal Newtonian physics, it is usually considered that the Moon revolves around the Earth. With a lower mass, the Moon is affected by the Earth’s gravity more than the Earth is affected by the Moon. The two bodies orbit around the barycenter, a point of gravitational equilibrium approximately 3/4 of the Earth’s radius from the center of the planet.

The motions of these celestial bodies depend on your point of reference, and the mass of the bodies. The Earth, Moon, Sun, and the other planets are traveling in eccentric paths around the center of the Milky Way Galaxy, which is itself moving relative to the other galaxies in the vicinity.

devlian [24]

This is covalent network type of solid.

For example, silicon dioxide (SiO₂) is covalent network solid with covalent bonding.

Covalent network solid is a chemical compound (or element) in which the atoms are bonded by covalent bonds in a continuous network extending throughout the material.

Silicon(IV) oxide has continuous three-dimensional network of SiO₂ units and diamond has sp3 hybridization.

This solids do not have free electrons so they are good insulators.

They have strong covalent bonds, so they melt at extremely high temperature.

Other examples are quartz, diamond, and silicon carbide.

In Chile, the deepest earthquake occurred at 61.7°W longitude at a depth of 540 km. If the rocks at the focus began subducting 1
victus00 [196]

The correct answer is - 1 cm/yr.

Alongside the western coast of South America, the Nazca plate and the South American plate are in a collision for several million years now, with the Nazca plate being the one that is subducting in this convergent plate boundary.

If the Nazca plate's focus has moved 1,000 km in the last 10 million years, than in order to get to the annual movement of the subduction we need to convert the km into cm first:

1 km = 10,000 cm

1,000 x 10,000 = 10,000,000

1,000 km = 10,000,000 cm

Than we need to divide the number of cm with the number of years:

10,000,000 / 10,000,000 = 1

And we get the result of 1 cm/yr.

Which is the formula for calculating density
o-na [289]

The Density Calculator uses the formula p=m/V, or density (p) is equal to mass (m) divided by volume (V). The calculator can use any two of the values to calculate the third. Density is defined as mass per unit volume.
