2. A 260 em cylinder container was used to collect an undisturbed soil sample. The container and soil weighed 403 g when dried.
sineoko [7]

Answer:

The Bulk density = 1.3 g/cm³

the porosity of the sample is 132 cm³

Explanation:

Given:

Volume of cylinder = 260 cm³

Mass of container and the soil = 403 g

Mass of the empty container = 65 g

Thus,

The mass of the soil is = 403 - 65 = 338 g  

Now,

The Bulk density = \frac{\textup{Mass}}{\textup{Volume}}

or

The Bulk density = \frac{\textup{338 g}}{\textup{260}}

or

The Bulk density = 1.3 g/cm³

also,

average particle density for mineral soil is usually given as 2.65 g/cm³

i.e the air present in the given soil sample has reduced its density from 2.65 g/cm³ to 1.3 g/cm³

The mass of the whole sample = Volume × Density

= 260 × 2.65

= 689 gm

but,

The actual mass of the dry sample = 338 g

thus,

Mass of air in the sample = 689 - 338 = 351 g

Therefore,

the volume of 351 g soil = \frac{\textup{mass defect of soil}}{\textup{density of soil}}

=  \frac{\textup{351}}{\textup{2.65}}

= 132.45 cm³

so the porosity of the sample is 132 cm³

The person who suggested that the continents were once a supercontinent, called Pangaea, but slowly drifted apart was Albert Ein
Alinara [238K]
The correct answer is: Alfred Wegener. Alfred Wegener (1880-1930) was a German polar researcher, meteorologist and geophysicist, and a first person who suggested that the continents were once a supercontinent called Pangaea, but slowly drifted apart. While he was still alive, Wegener was best-known for his achievements in <span>meteorology and as a pioneer of polar research, but today he is most remembered as the creator of the theory of the continental drift. This idea was controversial in the beginning, but today, scientist believe that Pangaea really existed during the late Paleozoic and early Mesozoic eras.</span>

Where a mid-ocean ridge is offset, the linear feature connecting and between the crests of the ridge segments is called a?
marshall27 [118]

When a mid-ocean ridge is offset, the linear feature connecting and between the crests of the ridge segments is called a Transform Fault.

As the Earth's tectonic plates separate, new ocean bottom is generated along divergent plate borders, which are known as mid-ocean ridges. Massive basalt volcanic eruptions result from molten rock rising to the seafloor as the plates divide. A ridge's shape is influenced by how quickly it spreads; slower spreading rates produce steep, erratic topography, while faster spreading rates result in much wider profiles and kinder slopes.

In geology and oceanography, a transform fault is a type of fault when two tectonic plates slide past one another. A transform fault may develop in the area of a fracture zone that connects spreading centres to deep-sea trenches in subduction zones or that lies between various offset spreading centres.

In the 1960s, Morgan postulated that spreading centres and transform faults separate opposing plates along an oceanic ridge crest that is offset by fracture zones.

The direction of motion on the transform faults was predicted by Morgan's hypothesis to be opposite to the offsets of the ridge crests, which was a rather dramatic assertion.

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

The answer is Batholithic intrusions

Explanation:

The Half Dome is an isolated mass suspended within the batholithic intrusions. Developed due to  vertical jointing, exfoliation, and some glacial activity. Steep face of half dome began to take shape as thin slabs of rock b/w parallel vertical joints were loosened by weathering and mass wasting and fell away layer by layer. Tenaya Glacier cleared away exfoliation debris and talus flowing in direction parallel to trend of vertical joints, removed sheets of rock by plucking . Rounded back of Half Dome formed as curved shells of rock exfoliated
