The answer should be c) ocean trench since they are both like very large cracks in the ground that expand down and back up again. Sorry if I don't make much sense, just trying to reach the minimum amount of characters :)

Answer:

Option (C)

Explanation:

The oceanic trenches are often defined as those long and narrow type of depressions that are formed at the seafloor, along a convergent plate boundary between two oceanic plates or continental and an oceanic plate.

Canyons are the erosional features that are formed due to the down-cutting of the surface rocks by a deep and narrow type of river channel, giving rise to the formation of steep cliffs on both the sides of the channel.

Both these features are similar in appearance but oceanic trenches are formed at the bottom of the ocean whereas canyons are formed at the surface of the earth.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

The density of table sugar is 1.59g/cm3 what is the volume of 7.85g of sugar?

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer: 4.94cm³

Explanation:

Data;

ρ = 1.59g/cm³

mass = 7.85g

volume = ?

density = mass / volume

ρ = m / v

v = m / ρ

v = 7.85 / 1.59

v = 4.94cm³

Forces present on a flying dove

storchak [24]

Answer:

There are four forces acting on a bird in flight, lift, thrust, drag and gravity (weight). These four forces act in pairs, as shown on the right. If a bird is to fly it must overcome drag and weight by generating a greater force of thrust and lift.

a student standing between two walls shouts once.he hears the first echo after 3 seconds and the next after 5 seconds. calculate

Karolina [17]

Explanation:

It took $t_1 =1.5\:\text{s}$ for the sound to reach the 1st wall and at the same time time, the same sound took $t_2 = 2.5\:\text{s}$ to reach the 2nd wall. Assuming that the sound travels at 343 m/s, then let $x_1$ be the distance of the person to the 1st wall and $x_2$ be the distance to the 2nd wall. So the distance between the walls X is

$X = x_1 + x_2 = v_st_1 + v_st_2 = v_s(t_1 + t_2)$

$\:\:\:\:\:= (343\:\text{m/s})(4.0\:\text{s}) = 1372\:\text{m}$

1.Velocity (v) is a vector quantity that measures displacement (or change in position, Δs) over the change in time (Δt), represented by the equation v = Δs/Δt. Speed (or rate, r) is a scalar quantity that measures the distance traveled (d) over the change in time (Δt), represented by the equation r = d/Δt.
