Part A Explain where the energy to keep water liquid in Europa comes from?

Geography

Mrrafil [7]3 years ago

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

Europa is the moon of the giant planet Jupiter. The water is kept liquid in Europa is because of the fact that Europa is tilted at its axis towards Jupiter(just like Earth). Jupiter keeps oceans on Europa warm by generating large planetary waves on the moon. These waves cause moon to flex during  eccentric orbit, and the energy cause the ocean to heat up.

why is it important to know the source of energy in convection currents to understand plate tectonic theory​
Lera25 [3.4K]

Its important to know the source of energy in convection currents because it is what drives the movement of the plates, formation of plate boundaries, and hot spots.

Explanation:

The convection currents are currents that occur in the mantle layer. The prime reason as to why they appear is the difference of heat and pressure between the upper and lower mantle. The energy itself exist because of the core of the Earth, as it is very hot and it has extremely high pressure, so it heavily influences the mantle layer above it.

The importance of understanding the energy source of convection currents is seen in that through it we can understand why we have plate boundaries at some places and not in others, why are spreading zones occurring, and why hot spots occur in the middle of the plates, far away from the boundaries. By understanding these things, we can understand the plate tectonics theory, thus the motion of the plates on Earth's surface.

What is going on with the natural world around you?
Kamila [148]

Answer:

Explanation:

Last year we had the most handsome of ducks -- a mallard. He was with us until the end of June at which time the water on our property dried up. I have a feeling his mate got tired of sitting on the nest all the time and demanded he help.  They built their nest in a thicket that was impossible to get near. We knew about where it was, but it did us no good.

We did get to see the young ones once or twice. It is amazing how quickly they grow. By the end of September, they were all ready to go south -- even the young ones.

This year is very dry -- there's no water for them. So we have not seen the mallards or ducks of any kind and no geese either. We all miss them.

Oxygen is of no use to them, so they release it into the air. So there's a simple explanation for the Great Oxidation Event. It was the cyanobacteria, pumping out unwanted oxygen, that transformed Earth's atmosphere.
