Handily, these three senses of stress also correlate with the three types of plate boundaries. Compressive stress happens at convergent plate boundaries where two plates move toward each other. Tensional stress happens at divergent plate boundaries where two plates are moving away from each other.

Finger [1]

Answer:

1/25 times

Explanation:

Given,

Jupiter is five times far from the sun.

We now,

Strength of sunlight is inversely proportional the square of the distance between the sun.

Intensity of sunlight on earth

   I_1\ \ \alpha \ \dfrac{1}{r^2}

Intensity of the sunlight on the Jupiter

    intensity\ \ \alpha \ \dfrac{1}{(5r)^2}

    I_2\ \ \alpha \ \dfrac{1}{25}\ I_1

Hence, we can say that intensity of sunlight is 1/25 times of intensity on earth.

A farmer who has grown corn for the past five years notices in the sixth year that his harvest is significantly smaller although
Dovator [93]
The answer is soil degradation. It is an artificial evolution related to the local climate and vegetation. It is caused by the replacement of primary plant communities (known as climax) by the secondary communities. This replacement changes the humus composition and quantity, and affects the formation of the soil. It is directly related to human activity. Soil degradation may also be defined as any change or disturbance in the soil perceived to be deleterious or undesirable. In this question, the more the farmer worked, the more he incidentally changed the formation and structure of the soil which resulted in the decrease in his crop yield.
