Geography
1 answer:
Alona [7]3 years ago
6 0
I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. Subduction is the collision between two tectonic plates. It is the biggest crash scene here on Earth. It is a geological process where one plate moves under another and is forced down into the mantle.

A steel aircraft carrier is 371 m long when moving through the icy North Atlantic at a temperature of 2.5° C. By how much does t
sergey [27]

Answer:

The carrier lengthen by 7.79 × 10⁻² m when it is traveling in the warm Mediterranean Sea at a temperature of 20° C

Explanation:

The initial length of steel (L_0) = 371 m

The change in length = ΔL

The change in temperature (ΔT) = 20°C - 2.5°C = 17.5°C

The coefficient of linear expansion of steel (α) = 12 × 10⁻⁶ ⁰C⁻¹

ΔL = αL₀ΔT = 371 × 17.5 ×  12 × 10⁻⁶ = 7.79 × 10⁻² m

The carrier lengthen by 7.79 × 10⁻² m when it is traveling in the warm Mediterranean Sea at a temperature of 20° C

Help plzz I need it byy 10 am

Well I’m no meteorologist, but it seems to me the closer you get to the equator the denser the air mass becomes. The farther away it gets from the equator, it obviously gets less dense. I do notice though that the purple are is Greenland, northern Russia and Northern America. Which leads me to believe that it’s more mountain land and it’s density is compared to that of cooler air.
