Magnetic stripes on the sea floor

Explanation:

The observation of magnetic stripes patterns at the region of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge galvanized the evidence that sea floor spreading has been on for several millions of years.

  • Geomagnetic field of the earth is similar to that of bar magnet having the north and south pole.
  • It originates from the movement of iron-nickel within the outer core.
  • This geomagnetic field causes the magnetization of magnetic minerals in rock.
  • When freshly formed magma is brought to the surface at the mid oceanic ridge area, the prevailing magnetic field causes the magnetic minerals in the magma to cool in such a way that they align their domains to that of the field.
  • The magnetic field of the earth can reverse and take different geometry. Sometimes, its intensity is very strong and at other times it is weak.
  • The magnetic minerals in melts bear these records.
  • As new materials are brought up, they get magnetized.

What are the differences between oceanic and continental crust
Lostsunrise [7]

Explanation:

Both oceanic crust and continental crust are less dense than the mantle, but oceanic crust is denser than continental crust. ... Because continental crust is less dense than oceanic crust it floats higher on the mantle, just like a piece of Styrofoam floats higher on water than a piece of wood does.

The continental crust is by far the older of the two types of crust.

Hope this helps you out ; )

A string that is restricted at both ends has a length of 1.50 m. what is the wavelength of the string’s fundamental frequency?
lara31 [8.8K]
Since it is restricted at both ends, λ/2 = length of string

λ/2 = 1.5m
λ = 1.5*2 = 3m

The relationship between energy (E), power (P), and time (t) is
NemiM [27]

Answer:

The avarage power of the body is 96.898 watts.

Explanation:

We must notice that given definition of power implies a constant consumption of energy, so that we should assume that energy consumption is constant. A Calorie is equal to 4186 joules. If we know that E = 2000\,Cal and t = 1\,day, the power of body, measured in watts, is:

P = \frac{(2000\,Cal)\cdot \left(4186\,\frac{J}{Cal} \right)}{(1\,day)\cdot \left(24\,\frac{h}{day} \right)\cdot \left(3600\,\frac{s}{h} \right)}

P = 96.898\,W

The avarage power of the body is 96.898 watts.
