Answer:
False
Explanation:
The Coriolis force is caused because the Earth rotates at a different linear velocity in the Equator compared to that in the North and South poles. This force makes objects that are not fixed to the ground move in different directions. For example, the hurricanes in the Northern Hemisphere spin counterclockwise and when travelling some distance they move to the right. While in the Southern Hemisphere they spin clockwise and move to the left. The effect of the Corioli force is extremely important on Earth because it determines the water and air currents, for example. Therefore, it is not an insignificant force.
Thought, it is an apparent force because it is not a force directly applied to the air and water, but a force produced by the side effect of the rotation of the Earth.
Answer:
Correct answer is: Due to interaction between Pacific and North American plate.
Explanation:
Mountain Redoubt is located in south Alaska. Mentioned mountain is in the vicinity of convergent plate boundary between North American and Pacific plate.
Convergent boundary means that those plates are <em>colliding</em>. One plate always slides beneath another, and in this case Pacific plate slides beneath North American. Area of collision is known as subduction zone.
Pacific plate is oceanic plate, and North American is continental plate. Oceanic plates <u>always slides</u> beneath continental ones. Reason for that is due to their density. Oceanic plates are denser, so they go under continental ones.
Pacific and North American plate interaction is typicall oceanic-continetal boundary where <em>earthquakes</em> (seismic activity) and <em>active volcanoes</em> are common. Some of the strongest earthquakes happened in this area. That was in 1964 in Prince William Sound in the south coast of Alaska. Magnitude was 9.2M, second strongest quake ever recorded in world's history.
Density, because the core is made of metals like iron and nickel
Answer:
2.89 Million People
Explanation:
Most of Argentina is mountainous (The Western side), which has extreme cold temperatures which makes it a popular skiing destination for tourists, it also happens to be not as populated. However, what makes Buenos Aires so different is that it's along the ocean, which makes it a much more livable and sustainable climate, it also gets a large economic boost because it has a large docking and trade system located there.
Examples of this would be other lightly populated rough climate countries such as Mongolia, which has only a population of 3 million despite it's large land borders.
