Answer:
mid-ocean ridge
Explanation:
When two oceanic tectonic plates diverge, it means they pull away from each other. When this happens, new land is created where the two plates moved apart.
Answer:
A = 2 cm
, λ = 8 cm
Explanation:
The amplitude of a wave is the maximum height it has, in this case the height is measured by the vertical ruler,
We are told the balance point is in the reading of 5 cm, that the maximum reading is 3 cm and the Minimum reading is 7 cm. Therefore, the distance from the ends of the ridge to the point of equilibrium is
d = 7-5 = 2 cm
d = 5-3 = 2 cm
A = 2 cm
The wavelength is the minimum horizontal distance for which the wave is repeated, that is measured by the horizontal ruler.
The initial reading for 4 cm and the final reading for 8 cm, this distance corresponds to a crest of the wave, the complete wave is formed by two crests whereby the wavelength is twice this value
Δx = 8-4 = 4 cm
λ = 2 Δx
λ = 8 cm
The whole question is talking about the amplitude of a wave
that's transverse and wiggling vertically.
Equilibrium to the crest . . . that's the amplitude.
Crest to trough . . . that's double the amplitude.
Trough to trough . . . How did that get in here ? Yes, that's
the wavelength, but it has nothing to do
with vertical displacement.
Frequency . . . that's how many complete waves pass a mark
on the ground every second. Doesn't belong here.
Notice that this has to be a transverse wave. If it's a longitudinal wave,
like sound or a slinky, then it may not have any displacement at all
across the direction it's moving.
It also has to be a vertically 'polarized' wave. If it's wiggling across
the direction it's traveling BUT it's wiggling side-to-side, then it has
no vertical displacement. It still has an amplitude, but the amplitude
is all horizontal.
Answer:It's how the color mixes together . Red and green both makes a dark color
