Monica [59]

Answer:

x = 0.48485\ GPa

Explanation:

Given

Rate = 0.1GPa/3.3km

Required:

Determine its pressure at 16km

Let the pressure at 16km be x.

So, the rate at 16km is:

Rate = x/16km

Equate both rates

x/16km = 0.1GPa/3.3km

Multiply both sides by 16

16km * x/16km = 0.1GPa/3.3km  * 16km

x = 0.1GPa/3.3  * 16

x = 1.6GPa/3.3

x = 0.48485\ GPa

  • The evidence that he gave where in the form of jigsaw fit amount the continents South America and the coastlines of Africa, the finding of same mountain chains and ranges around different parts of the world.
  • The presence of various plants and animals like the lemures and glossopteris flora were found in the bottoms of the Atlantic ocean as they tended to move westwards.
  • Another evidence he gave was the findings of similar climates around the world that were associated with the movement of plates and also gave importance to the ocean currents and movement of crust under the force of gravity.
