Geography

Answer:

Nanotechnology helps to improve viscous fingering and the nano-particles can transmit through nanopores of sandstone which helps to increase the recovery by decreasing the surface tension between oil and water. The pore spaces are very fine so water molecules cannot penetrate through all of them in order to push the oil. This is why the nano-particles such as iron (Fe) and Silicon (Si) are used with distilled water. These particles can easily move through the interconnected pores and thereby pushes the oil to move out of it. It is a widely accepted concept in Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR).

kogti [31]

A.  at the same time that Earth formed

Explanation:

Geologists think the earth's continents began to form about the same time the earth was formed.

Most of the rocks on the continental crust are about the oldest that been used to date the age of our planet.

  • Oceanic plates are relatively very young as they are formed at spreading centers and destroyed at convergent margins.
  • Continental masses have very high absolute ages.
  • The oldest rock on earth such as the Kabala Gneiss have been dated to be about 3 billion years.
  • Other rocks have yielded ages close to the formation of the earth.
  • We can conclude that the continents began to form immediately after the earth was formed.
