Meteoroids are small objects in space, usually made of rock or metal. These bodies often get close to a planet and fall through

its atmosphere. A burning streak of light, called a , is visible as it falls through the sky. Sometimes the object does not burn up completely and a part of it survives the fall to the planet’s surface. These rocky bodies, called , are studied by scientists to gain a better understanding of our solar system. NextReset

I NEED HELP ASAP!!! 100 points if you answer these 7 questions:
netineya [11]

Answer:

#1. B. Alfred Wegener

#2. C. Volcanic activity at the ocean bottom.

#3. B, C. Continental, Sea floor (oceanic).

#4. B. Folding

#5. B. Tectonics

#6. C. Point underground where the earthquake starts

#7. C. Flood waters carrying away soil

Explanation:

#1. Alfred Lothar Wegener was a German polar researcher, geophysicist and meteorologist. During his lifetime he was primarily known for his achievements in meteorology and as a pioneer of polar research, and is also known as the father of plate tectonics.

#2. The most prominent feature of ocean topography discovered in the 1960s was: Volcanic activity at the ocean bottom. The continents have always been in their current positions.

#3. Tectonic plates are composed of oceanic lithosphere and thicker continental lithosphere, each topped by its own kind of crust. The two types of tectonic plates are continental and oceanic tectonic plates.

#4. Tremendous pushing forces exerted by two of Earth's plates moving together squeezed rock layers from opposite sides. This caused the rock layers to buckle and fold, forming folded mountains. Folded mountains are mountains formed by the folding of rock layers caused by compression forces.

#5. Plate tectonics is the scientific theory explaining the movement of the earth's crust. It is widely accepted by scientists today. Recall that both continental landmasses and the ocean floor are part of the earth's crust, and that the crust is broken into individual pieces called tectonic plates.

#6. The hypocenter is the point within the earth where an earthquake rupture starts. The epicenter is the point directly above it at the surface of the Earth. Also commonly termed the focus. See also epicenter.

#7. This process is known as erosion. In earth science, erosion is the action of surface processes that removes soil, rock, or dissolved material from one location on the Earth's crust, and then transports it to another location.

Hope this helps!

Have a nice day!

What's the opposite of vaporization
Nesterboy [21]
Condensation. Remember, Vaporization happens when energy is taken in (enfothermic) the opposite will be the process that releases energy ( exothermic) which will be condensation. Put ice in a glass of water. the ice melts, taking in energy from the water in the glass, which in turn takes heat energy away from the vapor in the surrounding air, thus causing the water vapor in the air to condense.

NeX [460]

Explanation:

Formula to represent thrust is as follows.

             F = \frac{dP}{dt}

                = \frac{2p}{dt}

or,           p = \frac{E}{c}

         \frac{p}{dt} = \frac{W}{c}

                  F = \frac{2IA}{c}

                     = \frac{2 (1000 W/m^{2})(5.5 \times 10^{3} m)^{2}}{3 \times 10^{8} m/s}

                     = 201.67 N

Thus, we can conclude that the thrust is 201.67 N.
