Where two plates glide past one another horizontally, a transform fault boundary develops. A transform fault causes plates to glide past one another. Tectonic plate boundaries are lines where two plates meet and interact. At transform margins, crust is fractured and broken rather than formed or destroyed, in contrast to convergent and divergent boundaries.

The borders at which two tectonic plates collide and interact are known as plate boundaries.At the plate borders, geologic activity, such as volcanic activity, always takes place.The limits of converging plates are those when plates are travelling in the same direction.Boundaries where motion is primarily horizontal are referred to as transform plate boundaries.When continental or oceanic plates move at different speeds or in the same direction but opposite of each other.A transform fault boundary forms when oceanic or continental plates slide past one other in opposing directions or move in the same direction but at different speeds. While no new crust is produced, subducted, or formed, and no volcanoes are formed, the fault produces earthquakes.

As more ice in the Arctic Ocean melts, what effect does this have on the water? A. Heat absorption increases as the albedo incre
Scrat [10]

Answer:

B. Heat absorption increases as the albedo decreases

Explanation:

The ice has very high albedo. The reason for this is that it has white coloration, and the light coloration are highly reflective of the sunlight. As the ice melts though, the water surface increases, and the water, unlike the ice, has the capability of absorbing much more heat. With much more water, there will be much more absorption of heat, and since the water has low albedo on only 10, the albedo will decrease on a global level.

At a regional airport with an elevation of 29 meters below sea level, the observed station pressure is 1031 mb.
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

2.9 mb, subtracted from

Explanation:

Base on the scenario been described in the question, the correct is 2.9 mb, subtracted from

The substraction is because the base station is below or under the sea level and the atmospheric pressure decreases or reduces with the height. I hope this explanation is helpful

<span> the British reaction to Amritsar – the officer commanding British troops at Amritsar, General Dyer, was simply allowed to resign his commission after an inquiry criticised his leadership during the riot. Many national Indians felt that he, and others in the army, had got away very lightly. The more radical Indians felt that the British government had all but sanctioned murder. </span>
