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.

What is the gram-formula mass of Fe(NO3)3?
dusya [7]
M Fe = 55,85g ≈ 56g
m O = 16g
m N = 14g
m Fe(NO3)3 = 56g + 3*14g + 3*3*16g = 242g/mol

If anyone is good at chemistry do you mind helping? (●'◡'●)
stepladder [879]

• Before the balloon was placed inside the hot water, the pressure was the same inside and outside the balloon. The hot water raised the kinetic energy of the air molecules inside the balloon, expanding the balloon, through thermal expansion.

• (1) the pressure of air inside the balloon increased, (2) the volume of the inside of the balloon increased as well, and (3) the temperature of the balloon increased. Note that pressure and volume are inversely proportional, and pressure and temperature are directly proportional. Therefore as the temperature increases, the pressure inside will increase, causing an increase in the volume. At a certain point though the volume will increase too much as to cause a significant decrease in pressure.

• The air molecules will gain kinetic energy, hence (1) increasing the molecules's speed, and (2) heating the air molecules.

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

Nuclear fusion

Explanation:

Nuclear fusion is the source of Sun's energy.. At the core where temperature and pressure are very high hydrogen atoms fuse into helium atom and release energy in the form of Gama rays.
