<span>The volcanoes of USA are located along the west coast, at the subduction of the Pacific and North American tectonic plates. During the 20th century there were only two eruptions in continental USA; Lassen in 1915, and Mt St Helens in 1980. Alaska and Hawaii contain currently active volcanoes. hope this helps:)</span>

What are dimensionless quantities??​
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

Characteristic numbers are dimensionless numbers used in fluid dynamics to describe a character of the flow. To compare a real situation with a small-scale model it is necessary to keep the important characteristic numbers the same. Names of these numbers were standardized in ISO 31, part 12.

1. Identify which of the following will not increase the current induced in a wire loop moving through a magnetic field. a. incr
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Rotating the loop until it is perpendicular to the field  

Explanation:

Current is induced in a conductor when there is a change in magnetic flux.

The strength of the induced current in a wire loop moving through a magnetic field can be increased or decreased by the following methods:

By increasing the strength of the magnetic field there will be increased in the induced current. If the strength of the magnetic field is decreased then there is a decrease in induced current.    

By increasing the speed of the wire there will be increased in the induced current. When the speed of the wire is decreased then there is a decrease in induced current.

By increasing the number of turns of the coil the strength of the induced current can be increased. when there is less number of turns in coils then there is a decrease in induced current.  

Rotating the loop until it is perpendicular to the field will not increase the current induced in a wire loop moving through a magnetic field.

Therefore, the option is (c) is correct.

A) It is very dry at the equator because it is so hot.
bixtya [17]

A) It is very dry at the equator because it is so hot.

False.  It depends on what else is around.

The Sahara Desert is near the Equator.

But so is the Amazon rain forest.

B) Higher places are usually warmer because they are closer to the Sun.

False.  Higher places are usually colder, because the air is thinner.

C) Land masses change the direction of currents.

True

D)The sun provides energy needed for the evaporation process. Gravity allows water droplets to fall as precipitation.

True

Rank the following meteorites in terms of their age, from youngest to oldest:1) a meteorite containing 500 238U isotopes and 100
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

When 238U which is radioactive turns into 206Pb , it becomes stable and no further disintegration is done . Hence in the initial period ratio of 238U undecayed and 206Pb formed  will be very high because no of atoms of 238U in the beginning will be very high. Gradually number of 238U undecayed will go down and number of 206Pb formed will go up . In this way the ratio of 238U and 206Pb in the mixture will gradually reduce to be equal to one or even less than one .

In the given option we shall calculate their raio

1 ) ratio of 238U and 206Pb = 5

2 ) ratio of 238U and 206Pb = 4

3 )ratio of 238U and 206Pb = 1

4 ) ratio of 238U and 206Pb = 20

5 )ratio of 238U and 206Pb = 3

lowest ratio is 1 , hence this sample will be oldest.

Ranking from youngest to oldest

4 , 1 , 2 , 5 , 3 .
