- The slowly increasing distance between South America and Africa is due to: a. <u>Seafloor Spreading</u>.
- Old Faithful Geyser at Yellowstone National Park in the United States of America acquires its energy from a: b. Hot Spot.
- Layered <u>sedimentary rock</u> exposed by erosion can be seen when looking at the Grand Canyon in the United States of America.
- Australia is made up of relatively old and thick: d. Continental Crust.
- The extremely deep ocean Marianas Trench is a result of: g. Subduction.
- <u>Seafloor Crust</u>: found in the Atlantic Ocean between North America and Europe comprises dense and relatively young rock.
- The earthquakes that occur in Southern California generally occur above a: f. Fault.
<h3>What is seafloor spreading?</h3>
<u>Seafloor spreading</u> can be defined as a process that involves the formation of new oceanic crust as a result of volcanic activities and an upwelling of molten magma at mid-ocean ridges, as well as a slowly increasing distance (outward movement) from the ridge.
The theory of <u>seafloor spreading</u> was established by Harry Hammond Hess and it can be used to explain in details the slowly increasing distance between South America and Africa which grows from the center.
<h3>What is a
hot spot?</h3>
A <u>hot spot</u> refers to an area deep within Earth's mantle or under the rocky outermost layer of Earth, from which heat rises through convection and acquired as heat energy by a landform.
In the United States of America, you will see a layered <u>sedimentary rock</u> that is exposed by erosion when you view the Grand Canyon.
Furthermore, Australia is made up of relatively old and thick <u>continental crust</u>. Also, <u>subduction</u> causes the formation of extremely deep ocean Marianas Trench.

Meeeeeee please I need it
Answer:
2040
Step-by-step explanation:
We know Appleville is predicted to double its population every 10 years, while Brigdetown simply adds 1000. Doing the math, the 2040 Census will be the first one where Appleville's population (8,000) will be larger than Bridgetown's (7,000).
Appleville: 1,000 * 2³ = 1,000 * 8 = 8,000 people in 2040
Bridgetown: 4,000 + 3(1,000) = 4,000 + 3,000 = 7,000 people in 2040
8,000 > 7,000, so 2040 will be first census year where Appleville is larger than Bridgetown. (I know this is extra, but if this was asking for first year overall, then it would be 2037. 6,800 > 6,600)
Answer:
Take the square root of the constant (number w/o the variable) and then multiply that by 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
A perfect square trinomial is something like this: If I have 6x, and I want to find the last term I would take half a six and then square it to get 9.
SO.... To get the middle term of a perfect square trinomial, you would need to do the reverse.. So...
1) Take the square root of the constant...
2) Multiply that by 2
