It is unlikely that the Moon formed elsewhere and was captured by Earth's gravity, since it may be impossible for the Earth to c

apture an object as large as the Moon. It is also of note that the Moon contains an unusually low quantity of volatiles, which are materials like water that are easily vaporized at high enough temperatures. Based on this, and given the moon's density, which of the following formation scenarios of the Moon most closely matches our observations?Choose one:A. The Moon accreted from the debris of the impact of a large object with the surface of the Earth.B. The Moon formed from the outer part of Earth's atmosphere.C. The Moon formed at the same time as, but separately from, the Earth from the same Solar Nebula material.D. The Moon was formed from the material of an enormous volcanic eruption on Earth.

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

  • The surface of the moon is secured with dead volcanoes, sway holes, and magma streams, some noticeable to the independent stargazer. Early researchers figured the dull stretches of the moon may be seas, thus named such highlights horse, which is Latin for "oceans"
  • According to the big Splash theory,  the Moon framed out of the trash left over from a crash among Earth and a galactic body the size of Mars, roughly 4.5 billion years prior, in the Hadean age; around 20 to 100 million years after the Solar system blended.

Compare and contrast the effects of warm and cold currents on climate
avanturin [10]

Answer:

The cold currents often form when the air on the subtropical high blows over a cold mass of water, then the cold air is dragged to the equator. Warm currents, on the other hand, are large masses of warm water moving further away from the equator, at higher temperatures.

How were the hawiian island formed​
Scorpion4ik [409]
In areas where the plates come together, sometimes volcanoes will form. Volcanoes can also form in the middle of a plate, where magma rises upward until it erupts on the seafloor, at what is called a “hot spot.” The Hawaiian Islands were formed by such a hot spot occurring in the middle of the Pacific Plate.

PLZ HURY ON A TIMER Which statements explain what happens at deep-ocean trenches? Check all that apply.
Marat540 [252]
The answer are: mountains are formed, crust become molten rock and denser plates slides under lighter plates.

Let's look into the options one by one:

Crust is formed.

-This is in correct.

-At the ocean trench, plates subducts and were destroyed. No process of construction occurs as it is located at a destructive plate boundary.

Mountains are formed.

- This is correct.

- As it is located in the destructive plate bondary, two plates collide and create compressional force. The lighter continential will be compressed and foldes up to form fold mountains. One of the examples is the Rocky Mountain.

Seafloor spreading occurs.

-This is incorrect.

- Seafloor spreading occurs at constructive plate boundaries, however ocean trench occurs at destructive plate boudary and thus seafloor spreading does not take place.

Crust becomes molten rock.

- This is correct.

- When ocean trench is formed, denser oceanic plate subducts under the less dense continental plate and meets the hot magma. The crust material will then melt under high temperature and become molten rock.

Denser plates slide under lighter plates.

- This is correct.

- At deep ocean trenches, denser oceanic plate slide under the lighter continential plate as it is located the destructive plate boundary.

It might not be on time, but I hope it helps explain the question. :)
