Nastasia [14]
To claculate the gravitational attraction between two bodies with mass 1(m1) and mass 2 (m2) you need to use the equation:

F= G ((m1*m2)/r^2)

Where;
G is the gravitational constant (6.67E-11 m^3 s-2 Kg-1) and
r is the distance between the two objects.

Volcanoes are formed ________. question 3 options:
blsea [12.9K]
I think the correct answer is C. Volcanoes are formed in subduction zones or in rift valleys. They are formed when hot magma within the upper mantle of the Earth would work way up the surface. As it reaches the surface, an eruption would happen forming lava flows and deposits of ash. As it continues to erupt, it would grow bigger and bigger. These would form commonly in divergence or convergence tectonic plates. On Earth, there are about 1500 volcanoes that are active.  About 80 of these can be found under the oceans. The active ones are mostly found in washington, oregon, alaska, california and hawaii.
