Trenches are geological feature is most common at oceanic-continental convergent boundaries.

Explanation:

Usually, the oceanic plate, because it is denser, becomes subducted underneath the continental plate. The enormous stress of the two colliding plates causes the plates to warp abit downwards along the boundary causing a trench to form that stretches the boundary.

As the oceanic plate gets subducted and ‘dives’ into the mantle, it begins to melt into magma. Usually, due to the enormous stress along the boundary, fissures develop on teh continental plate along teh boundary. The magma rises through these fissures and erupts at the surface. Several mountains form long the boundary forming another signature geological feature of convergent boundary which is volcanic arc mountains.

Explain the phases of the moon. what are the periods of rotation and revolution?
cluponka [151]

The Moon is the natural satellite of Earth. Its revolution lasts 27.322 days, while its rotation around its axis lasts 27 days. From the Earth's perspective, the Moon seems to have different phases, where it appears as fully lighted, partially lighted, or totally dark. What the Moon appears to be from the Earth depends on how the Earth, Moon, and Sun are aligned in relation to each other. If the Earth is between the Sun and the Moon, the Moon is full, with the reason being that the Sun is lighting up the side that is facing the Earth. If the Moon is between the Earth and Sun, then the Moon can not be seen, it is totally dark, and that is because the side that is facing the Earth is not lighted by the Sun at all. If the Moon is positioned sideways, not being in a straight line with the Earth and Sun, then it appears to be partially lighted, and that is the side that can be seen from Earth that is lighted by the Sun.
