The correct answer is - B. convection currents in Earth's mantle.

The movement of the Earth's tectonic plates is driven by the convection currents. The convection currents appear in the mantle layer, and they are currents made out of molten metals with high temperature and very high pressures.

Those high temperatures and pressures have resulted in cracking the crust on the surface of the Earth, thus creating multiple tectonic plates, some very large, some very small.

The pressure from the convection currents is so high that it actually manages to move the plates in certain direction, making them collide/subduct, slide past one another, or move away from one another, shaping up the physical geography of our planet.

-4(-v + 4) + 8v = -2(-5y + 2)
givi [52]

Answer:

y= - -6v + 6/5 (the fraction is negative and the 6 is too)

Explanation:

switch sides

-2(-5y+2)=-4(-v+4)+8v

divide both sides by -2

-2(-5y+2)= -  4(-v+4)/-2 (fraction is negative not the four)+8v/-2

Simplify

-5y+2=-2(3v-4)

Subtract 2 from both sides

-5y+2-2=-2(3v-4)-2

Simplify

-5y=-6v+6

Divide both sides by -5

-5y/-5= -6v/-5+ 6/-5

Simplify andddd

y= - -6v+6/5

Compared with normal pressured shales, which one of the following features can be found in overpressured shales? O A. Lower dens
Nitella [24]

Answer:

(a) Lower densities and higher thermal gradient

Explanation:

Over pressured zones during penetrating are those zones where development liquid weight (higher than expected) surpasses the mud weight. These are liable for victories.

  • The pore liquid substance in shales of the over constrained zone is higher than the ordinary compelled shales. That implies, the porosity of shales in over pressured zone is higher as well thus the thickness of the over forced zones are lower than the ordinary influenced shales.
  • Because of the nearness of more liquids in the pores of an over constrained shale, the warmth produced because of penetrating behaviors gradually in over influenced shale than a shale in typical weight zones. Accordingly, warm inclination will be higher in over forced shales.​
