The Martian atmosphere is composed of ~96% CO2, but the greenhouse effect is much less than that on Earth. (a) Explain what the

greenhouse effect is on Earth and (b) Use the value of the solar constant on Mars (600 W m) and a typical surface air density on Mars (0.02 kg m) to provide two reasons why the greenhouse effect is less on Mars than on Earth. -2

Answer:

As explained below.

Explanation:

  • As the martin air composed of 96% of carbon dioxide and some parts of methane but this greenhouse effect is much less as compared to that of the earth as on earth the greenhouse gases are not as rugged and as profound as they are on the martian surfaces  and hence they are more intact and well produced in mars dry and rocky environment.
  • The more is the greenhouse gas concentration the more is the planets lots of co2 is wrapped in the oceans and ice layers that are trapped into the air keeping the air warm and dry.
  • Having a thin and less dense atmosphere than the earth this planet experiences drastic temperature changes thus the greenhouse effects are less profound on earth. Mars experiences frequent temperature changes and dense storm surges also.

Plate Tectonics Name Date Course/Section Due Date 1. The distribution of earthquakes defines the boundaries of which major Earth
Mumz [18]

Answer:

As explained below.

Explanation:

  • The distribution of earthquakes defines the boundary of the earth tectonic plates as earthquakes have the seismic energy that gets transferred to the landscape and as result to this the transform, divergent and convergent boundaries along the plate margins can be found.
  • Deep focus earthquakes are those that have shallow bases and origin in trenches where the lands are subdued under the plates and are associated with prominent oceanic features like the mid-oceanic ridges, deep-sea ridges, and seamounts, guyots and canyons, etc.
  • The ocean floor of convergence that creates the deep-seated earthquake as being collided with land and an oceanic plate or being collided with an oceanic and oceanic plate boundary. Physical features are faults and rift valleys.
  • The tonga trench is located near the tonga island and in the southwestern pacific ocean, is the second deepest trench on earth. Pacific plate is being subdued under this tench with an in convergence rate of 15 cm/year. Thus the rigid slab of lithosphere plate is being pulled towards this zone of convergence.
