The geology of New England included mountains that had many trees and rivers. In return, the thickness of trees on these forest provided a large amount of Lumber and thus, led them to specialize in ship building industry. These ships would then be used for fishing and hunting whales. This also resulted to constant trade between New England and other countries like England.

Answer:

The New England colonies were located along the Atlantic coast

Explanation:

Their location along the Atlantic coast was strategic for creating a trade network that connected them to their homeland, as well as to the West African slave coast, the Caribbean´s plantation islands and the Iberian Peninsula. The land also provided rich resources such as lumber, which was valued for building homes and ships, and it could be exported to England, where there was a shortage of wood.

A subduction complex contains slices of continental crust scraped from the top of a subducting plate. False True
Elis [28]

Answer: False

Explanation: A subduction complex is a region of the Earth where one tectonic plate dives beneath another into the interior of the Earth. A subduction complex does not occur as a result of scraped CONTINENTAL CRUST from the top of a SUBDUCTING PLATE instead it occurs as a result of TECTONIC PLATES diving beneath another into the earth surface.

In the diagram below, OL is perpendicular to DX.<br>Pro<br>No 13<br>Tea<br>Find the length of OX​
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Line OX = 7.09

Explanation:

The question is incomplete. Find attached the complete question.

SOLUTION

Given:

Line OL is perpendicular to DX

Line DX = 13

Line PO = the hypotenuse of the larger triangle

Line PO = 10

Line BO = hypotenuse of smaller triangle

Line BO = 12

To find length of line OX, we would apply rule of similar and congruent triangles.

∆DPO = ∆XBO

<POD = <BOX

Line DP is parallel to line XB

Since length of side DX = 13

Side DX = side DO + side OX

Let side DO = x

Side OX = 13-x

(Adj of ∆DPO)/(Adj of ∆XBO) = hyp of ∆DPO/hyp of ∆XBO

DO/OX = PO/BO

x/ (13-x) = 10/12

12x = 10(13-x)

12x = 130-10x

12x +10x = 130

22x = 130

x = 130/22 = 65/11

x is approximately = 5.91

Therefore line OX = 13 - 5.91

Line OX = 7.09

P and S waves from an earthquake travel at different speeds, and this difference helps locate the earthquake "epicenter" (where
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

(a) Since both P and S wave travels the same distance, so it can be written as:    Δx = V₁t₁ = V₂t₂,

Where, V₁- Speed of S wave

            V₂- Speed of P wave

            t₁- time taken by S wave

            t₂- time taken by P wave

Therefore, t₁ > t₂ (since, time taken by S wave is longer than P wave)

⇒ t₁ = t₂ + 1.5 min

⇒ t₁ = t₂ + 90 sec

⇒ V₁ (t₂ + 90 sec) = V₂ (t₂)

⇒ V₁t₂ + V₁ (90 sec) = V₂ (t₂)

⇒ V₂t₂ - V₁t₂ = V₁ (90 sec)

⇒ t₂ (V₂- V₁) = V₁ (90 sec)

⇒ t₂ = {V₁ (90 sec)} ÷ {(V₂- V₁)}

⇒ t₂ = {5.5 × (90 sec)} ÷ {(8.5 - 5.5)}

Therefore, t₂ = 165 sec

Since, Δx = V₁t₁ = V₂t₂

Now, Δx = V₂t₂ = (8.5 × 165 sec)

⇒ Δx = 1402 km

Therefore, Δx is approximately 1400 km (this means that the earthquake occurred at a distance of about 1400 km from the recorded seismic station)

(b) No, Only seismic station is not sufficient to detect the epicenter of an earthquake. Seismologists and geologists usually use the triangulation method in order to determine the exact location of the epicenter. This is possible by the use of three seismographs that are placed at three different locations nearby to that earthquake occurring position.

A violent flare-up of a star for a short time is called a<br> he
katrin [286]

Answer:

Solar flare

Explanation:

A solar flare is an outburst of solar radiation from the surface of the sun outward. This leads to increase in heat intensity and brightness around sun.

The flare is often accompanied by the ejection of electromagnetic radiations from the surface of the star into the stellar space. It can last from a few minutes to some hours.

Urgent!!!
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

The wise use of the earth's resources by humanity is called Conservation of natural resources. It is the proper management of a natural resource to prevent its exploitation, destruction or degradation.

Explanation:

Crop rotation. Crop rotation is the practice of growing a series of different types of crops in the same area across a sequenced of growing seasons. It reduces reliance on one set of nutrients, pest and weed pressure, and the probability of developing resistant pest and weeds.
