The Olympic Peninsula, Mount Rainier, and the deep 'implosion' earthquakes are all formed/produced as a result of the subduction zone that occurs in this part of the Earth. The Pacific tectonic plate and the North American tectonic plate collide, or rather the softer Pacific plate is subducting under the harder North American plate.

1. What year did the United States establish a global quota for immigrants

On May 26, 1924, the U.S. government enacted the eugenics-inspired Immigration Act of 1924, which completely prohibited immigration from Asia. The law reflected the desire of Americans to isolate themselves from the world after fighting World War I in Europe, which exacerbated growing fears of the spread of communist ideas. It also reflected the pervasiveness of racial discrimination in American society at the time.

  • The azimuth of the sun is the angle of the sun's position defined by the relative direction along the horizon. However the most commonly followed convection for analyzing the sun radiation is 90 degrees east, south 180 degrees and west is 270 degrees.  
  • As sunrise and sunset are defined by the upper limb of the solar disk. These conditions produce patterns of night and day as the sun appears to move just above the horizon at an angle of 0.39 degrees per day as the equinox passes.
