Answer:

The fault line does not extend straight down from the surface, so the focus is not directly beneath the point where the fault reaches the surface.

It seems that you have missed the necessary options in order for us to answer this question, so I had to look for it. Anyway, here is the answer. Many fault lines are obvious at the surface, but how can the epicenter of an earthquake be located miles away from the fault line is based on the reason that t<span>he epicenter is the place of greatest damage, and it can be miles from the site of the earthquake. Hope this helps.</span>

Stardust the unicorn, covered a distance of 50 miles on his first trip to the forest. On a later trip he travelled 300 miles whi
vodomira [7]

Answer:

twice as long

Explanation:

If Stardust managed to cover 50 miles on his first trip to the forest, and later managed to cover 300 miles by going 3 times faster, then we can easily come to the result as to how much more time Stardust needed comparably between the two trips, just by using these three numbers.

If Stardust was going 3 times as fast on the second trip, then we need to multiple that number with the number of miles of the first trip:

50 x 3 = 150

This means that Stardust managed to cover 150 miles on the second trip in the same amount of time as the 50 miles in the first trip. In order to see how much more time Stardust needed to cover the 300 miles, we just need to divide the total amount of miles, with the 150 miles of the 3 times faster speed:

300 / 150 = 2

So we get a result of 2, meaning that Stardust needed twice more time to cover the 300 miles, than what he needed to cover the 50 miles of the first trip.

What is the most significant factor that controls the development of soil?
Sergeu [11.5K]


There are five factors of soil formation, these are:
1) Parent Material
2) Topography
3) Biota
4) Climate
5) Time

The parent material of soil is the material that soil develops from. It is where the soil acquires its inherent characteristics or attributes that will influence the direction, timing, and nature of soil as it develops over time.

Though Topography, Time, and Climate are factors of soil development, they are rendered unimportant when parent material is not present.

Where is the world, or better yet, Earth?
mash [69]

Answer:

In its most general sense, the term "world" refers to the totality of entities, to the whole of reality or to everything that is. The nature of the world has been conceptualized differently in different fields. Some conceptions see the world as unique while others talk of a "plurality of worlds".

This is very... open ended. Do you have some choices? If not, I will say that they would most likely be interested in Alaska and eastern Siberia being connected by ice. People could, at one point, simply walk across.
