How much the Atlantic Ocean has grown since you were born (2000)?

Geography
1 answer:
miss Akunina [59]3 years ago

It's the picture of the Atlantic ocean. On average, the Atlantic Ocean is growing at a rate of about 2.5 cm/year.
So,

1. Since 2000, it grows about (2018-2000) x 2.5 = 45cm
2.( 2018 - 1492) x 2.5 = 1315 cm
3. 200 x 2.5 = 500 cm
4. The <span> Atlantic begin forming since mesozoic era</span>

A confined aquifer has a specific storage of 2.4 x 10-S ft and a thickness of 300 ft. How much water (in acre-ft) would it yield
Georgia [21]

Answer:

water it yield is 244290.45 ft

Explanation:

given data

specific storage SS = 2.4 × 10^{-5} ft

thickness b = 300 ft

water declined ΔH  = 4.8 ft

radius r = 1,500 ft

to find out

How much water  would it yield

solution

we know that

volume of water is

Vw = S × Area ×  ΔH    ..............1

here S = specific storage × thickness

S = 2.4 × 10^{-5} × 300

S = 7.2 ×  10^{-3}

and

area = πr² = π 1,500² = 7068589.471 ft²

so

volume of water is

Vw = 7.2 ×  10^{-3}  × 7068589.471 ×  4.8

Vw = 244290.45

so water it yield is 244290.45 ft

In the northern hemisphere, the sun is lowest in the sky with less radiation in the
schepotkina [342]

The Sun is lowest in the sky with less radiation in the Northern Hemisphere during the winter solstice.

Explanation:

The Earth is not static, but instead it is involved in several different motions. One of those motions is the Earth's tilt. Basically, the Earth is tilted with one of its hemispheres (northern or southern) toward the Sun in half of the year, and then in the other half of the year it is tilted with the other hemisphere toward the Sun.

When one of the hemispheres, lets say the Northern Hemisphere, is tilted away from the sky, and that reaches the maximum, it receives the least solar radiation, and the Sun is the lowest on the sky. That occurs on 21 or 22 December, and it is known as the winter solstice. This date represents the start of the winter for the Northern Hemisphere, thus its coldest period of the year.

The four stages on Earth caused by the tilting are:

  • spring equinox
  • summer solstice
  • autumn equinox
  • winter solstice

Why isn't there a huge deep sea trench next to California like there is next to South America?
kari74 [83]

Answer:

Deep-sea trenches generally lie seaward of and parallel to adjacent island arcs or mountain ranges of the continental margins. They are closely associated with and found in subduction zones—that is, locations where a lithospheric plate bearing oceanic crust slides down into the upper mantle under the force of gravity.

Explanation:

"The result is a topographic depression where the oceanic plate comes in contact with the overriding plate, which may be either oceanic or continental. If the overriding plate is oceanic, an island arc develops. The trench forms an arc in plan view, and islands with explosive volcanoes develop on the overriding plate. If the overriding plate is continental, a marginal trench forms where the topographic depression appears to follow the outline of the continental margin. Explosive volcanoes are found there too"
