Answer:
The temperature begins to increase with altitude in the stratosphere. This warming is caused by a form of oxygen called ozone (O3) absorbing ultraviolet radiation from the sun.The overlying mesosphere does not absorb solar radiation, so the temperature decreases with altitude.
Explanation:
Answer:
oceanic crust sinks because it is denser and has higher specific gravity than the more silicon aluminum enriched continental crust. What drives substitution is convection and conduction in outer core of earth, that heat , only a small part of which is due radioactive isotopes, has to make it's way to Earth's surface by both conduction and convection. Iron and nickel o have the highest specific gravities of the 10 most common elements in the Milky Way Galaxy. This is why oceanic crust sinks and is subducted continental crust has to have a lot more force applied before it inks, because it doesn't want to sink.
The answer is C. Dead leaves
Answer:
Yes? The Philippine plate is not included among the seven largest lithospheric plates.
Explanation:
It is not included, but it is a very large lithospheric plate. (I don't understand how this is a question, but, it's correct)
If such an earthquake was to strike L.A., the epicenter and the magnitude would be <u>Los Angeles</u><u> </u>and <u>7.8 </u><u>o</u>n the Richter scale respectively.
<h3>What is the epicenter and magnitude of an earthquake?</h3>
The epicenter of an earthquake is the place on the surface of the Earth where the earthquake is first detected which in this case is Los Angeles.
The magnitude is measured on the Richter Scale and in this case is 7.8 on that same scale which means it was quite a strong quake.
