The answere to this question is

"Scientists can tell by observing the seismic waves that are recorded all over the surface of the earth from distant earthquakes. The seismic waves are reflected (bounced off) layers of different density, and they are refracted (bent) when they enter layers of different density."


Hope it helps!!

Our current best estimate is that the western Grand Canyon in Arizona began to be excavated by riser erosion about 6 million yea
katovenus [111]

Answer:

0.267mm/yr

7.25 mm

Explanation:

Given the following:

Estimated time since erosion began = 6 million years

Greatest depth of canyon = about 1.6km

The mean rate of erosion in millimeter per year:

Mean rate = Depth of canyon / time

Depth of canyon in millimeter:

1 km = 1000000 mm

1.6km = (1.6 × 1000000) = 1,600,000 mm

Mean rate = 1,600,000mm/ 6,000,000 years

Mean rate = 0.26666 mm/yr

Mean rate = 0.267 mm/year

B.) If rate of erosion = 0.267mm/yr

Date of birth = 30 / 10 / 1992

Today's date = 5 / 9 / 2020

Date difference = 27 years 55 days

Total number of days = (27 *365) + 55 = 9,910 days

Rate of erosion per day = 0.267 / 365 = 0.0007315 mm / day

Change in depth from date of birth till today:

0.0007315 mm/day × 9,910 days

= 7.2492328 mm

= 7.25 mm deeper
