Answer:
Knowing that the temperature at sea level (0 m) is 20 ° C, we will calculate the air temperature at. The altitude of 3500m.
According to the vertical thermal gradient, the air temperature decreases by 6 ° C at 1000m alt.
1000 m .... 14 ° C (20-6 = 14)
2000 m .... 8 ° C (14-6 = 8)
3000 m ... 2 ° C (8-6 = 2)
3500 m .... - 1 ° C (2-3 = -1
Explanation:
Answer:
- Divergent plate boundary, which causes volcanic activity and shallow earthquakes.
- Convergent plate boundary, which has one plate that “dives (‘subducts’) beneath the other, resulting in a variety of earthquakes and a line of volcanos on the overriding plate”
- Transform plate boundary, where plates slide laterally past one another, producing shallow earthquakes but little to no volcanic activity.
- Hotspot, “where a plate rides over a rising plume of hot mantle, creating a line of volcanoes on top of the plate.”
Greenland is part of North America, but Greenland is politically associated with Denmark/Norway.
