Divergent boundaries are formed when plates are pulling apart; this kind of force is called tension. The opposite boundary is a convergent boundary, where two plates collide; this happens near subduction zones. The force present in a transform boundary is shearing, which is when two things grind past each other.

Answer= convergent=shearing

<u>Answer: </u>

Option (d)

Compression is the force that is present at a convergent boundary.  

<u>Explanation: </u>

Stress is any external force that acts on the rock leading to either it’s deformation or Reformation. Compression is a type of stress that acts towards the centre of a rock and is present at a convergent boundary.

Horizontal compression may lead to a break in the crust of the earth which is known as thrust faulting whereas vertical compression may lead to a normal fault.

Can the segment shown below could form a triangle 658?
bija089 [108]

The segment shown of AC 6 , CB 5, BA 8 can indeed form triangle 658 so this is TRUE.

<h3>How are triangles formed?</h3>

A shape is said to be a triangle when the sum of the lengths of any two sides is greater than the length of the last side.

To prove this, we have:

8 + 6 = 14  which is greater than 5

6 + 5 = 11 which is greater than 8

5 + 8 = 13 which is greater than 6

This shows that the segment can indeed form a triangle 658.

Full question is:

The segment shown below could form a triangle. 6, 5, 8

AC 6 , CB 5, BA 8

What factors can you look at to determine if a country is "very highly developed"?
lesantik [10]

Answer:

The HDI (Human Development Index) considers three main dimensions to evaluate the development of a country:

1. Long and healthy life of its citizens

2. Education.

3. Standard of living.

Explanation:

1. Long and healthy life

The long and healthy life dimension is measured by life expectancy at birth. The life expectancy at birth is a statistical measure that an average individual is expected to live based on certain demographic factors such as the year of birth and current age.

2. Education

This is a second dimension in the HDI. The indicators of education are the expected years of schooling and the mean years of schooling. According to the UN, the average maximum years of schooling is 18 years, while the mean maximum years of schooling is 15 years.

3. Standard of living

The standard of living is usually measured by the gross national income (GNI) per capita. The GNI indicates the total domestic and foreign output created by the residents of a certain country.
