Answer:

The massive mid-ocean ridge system is a continuous range of underwater volcanoes that wraps around the globe like seams on a baseball, stretching nearly 65,000 kilometers (40,390 miles).

The majority of the system is underwater, with an average water depth to the top of the ridge of 2,500 meters (8,200 feet).

Mid-ocean ridges occur along divergent plate boundaries, where new ocean floor is created as the Earth’s tectonic plates spread apart.

As the plates separate, molten rock rises to the seafloor, producing enormous volcanic eruptions of basalt.

The speed of spreading affects the shape of a ridge – slower spreading rates result in steep, irregular topography while faster spreading rates produce much wider profiles and more gentle slopes.

tell me if this is wrong please

andrezito [222]

Average speed of the trip = 52 km/hr

<h3>Further explanation  </h3>

Distance is the length traveled by an object within a certain of time .

Average speed = total distance/total amount of  time ,

Can be formulated :

\tt S(speed)=\dfrac{D}{T}

Total distance travelled : 1560 km

Total time : 8 hr + 12 hr + 10 hr = 30 hr

\tt avg.speed=\dfrac{tot~D}{tot~T}\\\\avg.speed=\dfrac{1560}{30}\\\\avg.speed=52~km/hr
