Geography
1 answer:
Contact [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Felsic magma

Explanation:

Felsic magmas are higher in silica. The higher the amount of silica in the magma, the more viscous it is. Viscosity determines what the magma will do. Most felsic magma will stay deeper in the crust and will cool to form rocks such as granite. If felsic magma rises into a magma chamber, it may be too viscous to move and so it gets stuck. Dissolved gases become trapped by thick magma and the magma chamber begins to build pressure and felsic magmas will erupt explosively.

what happens to a glass of ice water when you leave it at room temperature for an hour? Does the heat travel to or from the ice?
Naddika [18.5K]
The heat travels to the ice because the ice is colder than the temperature of the air in the room. This happens because the temperature is trying to regulate and when something is warmer than another substance or object then the heat will travel from the warmer object to the colder one. When this happens the ice melts because it can't be a solid for a long period of time.

Western Europe is more developed than Eastern Europe because ____.
Alla [95]

Western Europe is more developed than Eastern Europe because <u>the market economy of Western Europe provides an economic advantage</u>

Explanation:

Stark differences persist between the western and eastern part of Europe. While western Europe was under the influence of Capitalism mode of production (led by the US and Great Britain), the eastern part was led by the erstwhile USSR following socialist mode of production.

Under the market economy, open competition and adaptive hand-holding by the US, western European countries prospered by leaps and bound. Marshall plan prepared by the US helped in post-war reconstruction of western Europe. On the other hand, eastern countries fell prey to the despotic rule of dictators, political instability and socialisation of assets. There were no such private assets and the important assets were nationalised. In the long run, the socialistic model of the market could not stand up to capitalism and fell in 1991 when the USSR disintegrated.

Perchè la terra è sferica?
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

Causa La Terra è abbastanza massiccia che l'attrazione della gravità mantiene la sua forma approssimativamente sferica. La maggior parte della sua deviazione dagli steli sferici deriva dalla forza centrifuga causata dalla rotazione attorno al suo asse nord-sud. Questa forza deforma la sfera in un ellissoide oblato.
