The actual distance will be 12 km.

<u>Explanation</u>:

The scale of the map is 1:250000

1 cm in the map represents 250000 cm.

250000cm=2500 m=2.5 km

the measurement in the map is 4.8 cm

since 1 cm represents 250000 cm or 2.5 km

The actual distance represented by 4.8 cm on the map = 4.8*250000 cm =1,200,000 cm=12000 m=12 km

4 types of plate boundaries and earth features they form
madreJ [45]
Answer:

- Divergent plate boundary, which causes volcanic activity and shallow earthquakes.

- Convergent plate boundary, which has one plate that “dives (‘subducts’) beneath the other, resulting in a variety of earthquakes and a line of volcanos on the overriding plate”

- Transform plate boundary, where plates slide laterally past one another, producing shallow earthquakes but little to no volcanic activity.

- Hotspot, “where a plate rides over a rising plume of hot mantle, creating a line of volcanoes on top of the plate.”
