Geography

valina [46]1 year ago

The cone-shaped structure, or edifice, of the volcano is formed by the symmetrical buildup of lava and/or pyroclastic substance around the central vent system. The central vent is deep connected to a magma chamber, which serves as the primary storage area for eruptive material.

The third type of volcano, shield volcanoes, are almost entirely composed of fluid lava flows. Stream after stream spills out in all ways from a central summit exhaust, or group of vents, forming a broad, gently sloping cone with a profile similar to that of a warrior's shield.

2. <u>Yes</u>, there exist changes of 12 hours in sunlight and darkness on earth due to the rotational speed of the earth on its axis as the earth is tilted 23.5 degrees so in both the hemisphere there exists equinoxes and solstices.

3. <u>True</u>, as the known fact the earth rotates in anticlockwise direction hence the eastern side gets to see the sun first and western side later this rule applies everywhere in the earth on both the equinoxes.

4. <u>True</u>, The celestial poles and equator are two points on earth that represent the equinoxes and the point that falls directly over the poles is called the zenith and the plane that touches is called the galactic plane.
