Answer:

The answer would be b

Explanation:

Craters are formed by the outward explosion of rocks and other materials from a volcano. Calderas are formed by the inward collapse of a volcano's magma chamber. Craters are usually much smaller features than calderas, and calderas are sometimes considered giant craters.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

C) Craters are formed by ejecting material during volcanic explosions while calderas are formed from inward collapse of volcano tops during explosive eruptions.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Calderas form when the volcanic eruption or the eruption of lava creates a huge empty magmatic chamber below the surface of the earth which later form a depression due to collapsing back into the chamber.  

Calderas are not visible with a naked eye; they can only be seen on images taken from out of space. An example of the gigantic caldera is Yellowstone National Park. Craters, however, results from volcanic eruptions which cause vents were magma and other material escapes to form a cone shape. An example is Mt. St Helen.

tester [92]

Answer:

The greatest gravitational potential energy is at apogee. The greatest kinetic energy is at perigee. Total Energy is constant.

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy is at its greatest when the satellite is farthest  from the earth, this point is called the apogee. And at this point the kinetic energy will be at its minimum.

The kinetic energy is greatest when the satellite is closest to the earth, this point is the perigee. And at this point the gravitational potential energy will be at a minimum level.

the total energy is the sum of the gravitational potential energy and the kinetic energy.As the satellite orbits the earth, the kinetic energy and the gravitational potential energymay be interchanged but the total energy will remain unchanged.
