During the first half of the 20th century, the theory of plate tectonics was developed. Evidence supporting this theory included

Wegener's mapping of the supercontinent Pangaea, the US Navy's discovery of paleomagnetic reversals, and evidence of sea floor spreading. What is the MOST recent evidence supporting plate tectonics? A) GPS monitoring and satellite imagery of crustal movements B) mapping earthquake epicenters with seismic technology C) sending probes deep into Earth's interior D) radioactive dating of fossil evidence

A) GPS monitoring and satellite imagery of crustal movements

Explanation:

The most recent evidence supporting the theory of plate tectonics is the use of  GPS monitoring and satellite imagery of crustal movements.

GPS denotes Global Positioning Systems.

Satellite imagery is a recent advancement in the study of moving plates.

  • The global positioning system uses the position of a system of satellites in space to delineate positions on earth.
  • It works on the principles of triangulation and this helps to fix positions of objects on the earth surface.
  • With this, the change in position of the plates can be recorded by known fixed positions of objects.
  • Satellite imagery helps to map changes in terrain with time.
  • Images can be correlated through time and the shift in terrains delineated.

the sewing thread ritu brought had the label mercerized? give the advantages of mercerization and explain the process of merceri
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

Here's what I find  

Explanation:

Mercerization involves the treating of cotton fibres with NaOH solution and then drying them under tension.

The process changes the internal structure of the fibres and causes them to swell.

The advantages of mercerization are:

  • Greater affinity for dyes (saves money)
  • Increased tensile strength
  • A high degree of lustre (better appearance)
  • Greater absorption of moisture (e.g., sweat)
  • Greater resistance to shrinking

For the reaction CH4(g) + 2O2(g)CO2(g) + 2H2O(g) H° = -802 kJ and S° = -5.20 J/K At standard conditions, this reaction would be
Illusion [34]

Answer: at relatively low temperatures.

Explanation:

According to Gibbs equation;

\Delta G=\Delta H-T\Delta S

\Delta G = Gibb's free energy change

\Delta H = enthalpy change

T = temperature

\Delta S = entropy change

A reaction is spontaneous when \Delta G = Gibb's free energy change is negative.

Thus \Delta G=(-\Delta H)-T(-\Delta S)

\Delta G=-(\Delta H)+T(\Delta S)

Thus the reaction is spontaneous or \Delta G is negative only when T(\Delta S)

Thus the reaction is spontaneous at relatively low temperatures
