SONAR, satellite radar, GPS, and deep-sea diving vessels all contribute
to accurate MEASUREMENT of the depth and motion of the sea floor, and
of the motion of the continents. 

Once the measurements are known, they can be analyzed to determine
whether OR NOT they support the idea of continental drift, or some other
hypothesis.

Real scientists don't go out looking for evidence to support the ideas
that they want supported.  That kind of approach to research is found
more in the Flat Earth department.

What is an oscillation on waves?
Tasya [4]
The number of repetitions per second is called the frequency and is the inverse of the period. The period, T, is normally measured in seconds, and the frequency, ν, in Hertz. When the oscillations<span> (or vibrations) affect the material around them a </span>wave <span>is formed which transports energy away.</span>

What is the geological claim for many of the lakes in Florida are sinkholes lakes?
Nata [24]

Answer:

Sinkhole lakes in Florida typically occur in areas with a thin layer of soil overlying limestone, hi areas with impermeable clay soil, a lake might be perched (the lake level is maintained naturally above groundwater level, Fig. 3). The shapes of sinkhole lakes often show how they are formed....

Four20 Ohm resistors are connected in parallel and the combination is connected to a 20-v emf device. The current in any one of
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

The current in any one of the resistors is 1 A.

Explanation:

It is given that, four 20 ohm resistors are connected in parallel. In parallel combination of resistors, the voltage across each and every resistor is same while the current divides. The equivalent resistance of all resistors is given by :

\dfrac{1}{R_{eq}}=\dfrac{1}{R_1}+\dfrac{1}{R_2}+\dfrac{1}{R_3}+\dfrac{1}{R_4}

\dfrac{1}{R_{eq}}=\dfrac{1}{20\ \Omega}+\dfrac{1}{20\ \Omega}+\dfrac{1}{20\ \Omega}+\dfrac{1}{20\ \Omega}

R_{eq}=5\ \Omega

Current flowing in the entire circuit can be calculated using Ohm's law as :

Current, I=\dfrac{V}{R_{eq}}

I=\dfrac{20\ V}{5\ \Omega}

I = 4 A

Since, in parallel combination current divides. So, current flowing in all four resistor divides and is 1 A. Hence, this is the required solution.
