The North American plate is moving towards the west-southwest at about 2.3 centimeters every year mediated by the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, the spreading center, which gave rise to the Atlantic Ocean. The small Juan De Fuca plate, moving east-northeast at 4 centimeters every year, was once a component of much greater oceanic plates known as the Farallon plate.
The Farallon plate used to comprise what is now the Cocos plate of Mexico and Central America, and the Juan de Fuca plate in the region from N. Vancouver Island to the Cape Mendicino California, and a big sea floor tract in between. However, the middle portion of the Old Farallon plate disappeared underneath North America, it was subducted underneath California leaving the San Andreas fault system behind as the contact between the Pacific plates and North America.
The Juan De Fuca plate is still actively subducting underneath North America. Its movement is not smooth, however, rather sticky. The buildup of strain takes place until the fault dissociates and a few meters of Juan De Fuca get slid underneath North America in a big earthquake.
Answer:
1.200g
Explanation:
At the top it's 0 and that scale goes by 10s
The middle scale is 1 and it goes by 1s
The bottom scale is .2 and it goes by .1s
1+.2= 1.2 the extra zeroes are just place holders

<h2>--------------------------------------------------------------------------------</h2>
<h3>RELATED TO THE QUESTION </h3>
- <u>Solid is one of the four fundamental states of matter</u>. The molecules in a solid are closely packed together and contain the least amount of kinetic energy.
- <u>A solid is characterized by structural rigidity and resistance to a force applied to the surface</u>.
- <u>Sulfuric acid or sulphuric acid, also known as oil of vitriol, is a mineral acid composed of the elements sulfur, oxygen and hydrogen</u>, with molecular formula H₂SO₄. It is a colorless, odorless and viscous liquid that is miscible with water at all concentrations.
- <u>Sucrose is common sugar. It is a disaccharide</u>, a molecule composed of two monosaccharides: glucose and fructose. Sucrose is produced naturally in plants, from which table sugar is refined. It has the molecular formula C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁.
