Elanso [62]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: in the other types of boundaries lithosphere plate is either created ie: (divergent plate boundaries where new oceanic crust is formed) while at convergent old oceanic crust is destroyed . But in the case of transform boundaries the plates slides past each other and lithosphere plate is neither created or destroyed . California San Andreas fault is a transform boundary.

Assume that the Moon is hit by about 25 million micrometeorite impacts each day (this number comes from observations of meteors
mestny [16]

Answer:

3.03 Billion Days or 8.30 Million years

Explanation:

Given,

No. of micrometeorite impacts per day on the Lunar surface = 25000000

Impacts needed to erase a footprint = 20

Area of footprint = 300 cm²

We know that surface area of the Moon = 37.93 Million Km² = 37.93\times 10^{16} cm^{2}

To find:  How long will it take to erase one footprint?

Using the above information,

No. of impacts per cm² per day is

= \frac{25000000}{37.93\times 10^{16}}

No. of impacts on area of a foot print (300 cm²) per day will be,

= \frac{25000000}{37.93\times 10^{16}}\times 300

= 6.59\times 10^{-9}

To erase the footprint there must be 20 impacts on the area of footprint.

Time taken for 6.59\times 10^{-9} impacts = 1 Day

Time taken for 1 impact is

= \frac{1}{6.59\times 10^{-9}} days

Hence, time taken for 20 impacts will be

= \frac{1\times20}{6.59\times 10^{-9}} days

= 3.03 \times 10^{9} days

= \frac{3.03 \times 10^{9}}{365}years

= 8.30 \times 10^{6} years

It would take around 3.03 Billion Days or 8.30 Million years for one of the footprints left by the Apollo astronauts to be erased.
