Where is oceanic crust thickest

Biology
2 answers:
sasho [114]3 years ago

The oceanic crust is thickest on the points that are the furthest away from the mid-ocean ridges. These makes the parts of the oceanic crust that are in close proximity of the subduction zones to be the thickest parts, pr in other words it comes as the thickest parts of the oceanic crust are the ones that are the closest to the zone of their destruction (or rather recycling).

The oceanic crust is thickest at mid-ocean ridges
Oceanic crust is the outermost layer of Earth's lithosphere that is found under the oceans and formed at spreading centers on oceanic ridges, which occur at divergent plate boundaries. It is about four miles thick and is composed of several layers, not including the overlying sediment.

Describe the way particles of a gas move
butalik [34]

The particles of a gas move quickly and are able to spread apart from one another.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The particles in the gas are departed from each other at greater distance. The arrangement of the particles present in gas are not regular. Hence, the vibration and the movement of the particles in gas occurs fast. The particles are able to move freely at higher speed. They will follow a continuous and a straight line motion.

The particles present in gas can move freely and can spread easily away from each other because of the fact that the kinetic energy of these particles will be higher than the attractive force that exist between the gas particles. Thus, the particles present in gas can move freely in all directions and collides with each other and also with the containers wall.
