Answer:

The continental margins of the Pacific Ocean are narrower than those of the Atlantic and are not covered with thick layers of sediment.

Explanation:

The continental margin is a major zone of the ocean floor. It separates the thin oceanic crust from the thick continental crust. The continental margin consists of three features

Continental rise
Continental slope
Continental shelf

The continental margins of the Pacific Ocean are comparatively narrower than the margins of the Atlantic and are not covered with thick layers of sediment.

Answer:

Explanation:

1. Given the length, width and height find the volume, surface area and diagonal of a rectangular prism

h, l and w are known; find V, S and d

V = lwh

S = 2(lw + lh + wh)

d = √(l2 + w2 + h2)

2. Given the surface area, length and width find the height, volume and diagonal of a rectangular prism

S, l and w are known; find h, V and d

h = (S - 2lw) / (2l + 2w)

V = lwh

d = √(l2 + w2 + h2)

3. Given the volume, length and width find the height, surface area, and diagonal of a rectangular prism

V, l and w are known; find h, S and d

h = V / lw

S = 2(lw + lh + wh)

d = √(l2 + w2 + h2)

4. Given the diagonal, length and width find the height, volume and surface area of a rectangular prism

d, l and w are known; find h, V and S

h = √(d2 - l2 - w2)

V = lwh

S = 2(lw + lh + wh)
