Why are the magnetic lineations identical on either side of the mid-ocean ridge?

Geography
1 answer:
Akimi4 [234]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

because volcanoes in the center of the ridge push the pre-existing seafloor on either side of it away from it at equal speeds  

also when the earth's polarity flips, the crystals on either side of the spreading center are affected equally, so the bands are always the same distance from the ocean ridge

also because when the magma solidifies (which is what "freezes in" the magnetic orientation), the magnetic field of the earth exerts the same force on both sides of the ridge (the midline of the spreading).

liq [111]

Answer:

About an year.

Explanation:

If we could collect all of the energy of the sun that came to earth in one hour , the energy is enough for all of humanity's energy needs for one year.  The humans used about 575 quadrillion Btu whereas each hour 430 quintillion Joules of energy is received from the sun by the Earth which is a huge quantity so by seeing the data we can conclude that about one hour of sun's energy is enough for about about one year for the whole world.

Latin Americans have created different elevation zones to describe the climates that they live in. Which of the following patter
Paul [167]

Answer:

D. tierra caliente, tierra templada, tierra fria, tierra helada.

Explanation:

The Latin American region has its own unique names for the elevation zones based on the climate. The lowest of them is the tierra caliente, characterized with lowlands and hills covered with dense tropical forests, and hot weather. The tierra caliente is the second, located between 1,000 and 2,000 meters, being still part of the tropical climate, but being cooler and more pleasant, which is why there are lot of big cities on this elevation. The tierra fria is located further up, up to 3,000 meters, and it is colder, dominated with grasslands, and the living conditions are not the best. The top elevation zone is the tierra helada, located in the highest parts of the Andes, being dominated by barren mountain slopes, strong winds, and cold climate.
