Hi there!

The seafloor spreading is when the mantle is rising and breaking the crust causing the seafloor to spread open. Continental Drift is the gradual movement of the continents across the earth's surface through geological time. Induction is the process or action of bringing about or giving rise to something. Subduction the sideways and downward movement of the edge of a plate of the earth's crust into the mantle beneath another plate.

Thus makes Subduction your answer:)

Softa [21]

Flattening a three-dimensional globe onto a flat surface isn't possible without some distortion.  Mercator maps distort the shape and relative size of continents, particularly near the poles. Projections also distort distance, direction, scale and area.

Can the segment shown below could form a triangle 658?
bija089 [108]

The segment shown of AC 6 , CB 5, BA 8 can indeed form triangle 658 so this is TRUE.

<h3>How are triangles formed?</h3>

A shape is said to be a triangle when the sum of the lengths of any two sides is greater than the length of the last side.

To prove this, we have:

8 + 6 = 14  which is greater than 5

6 + 5 = 11 which is greater than 8

5 + 8 = 13 which is greater than 6

This shows that the segment can indeed form a triangle 658.

Full question is:

The segment shown below could form a triangle. 6, 5, 8

AC 6 , CB 5, BA 8

Why do mapmakers have to choose between showing the correct land shapes and distances on the earth?
Olin [163]

The mapmakers have to make this choice because of the shape of our planet and because there is still not a method as to how to have both the land shapes and distances to be precise at the same time.

The shape of the earth is the factor that is not allowing (at least for now) that we have both correct land shapes and precise distances on the maps of the Earth. Because the Earth has a rounded shape, as we move further away from the Equator, the shapes are deforming more and more, or rather they are stretching more and more which makes them appear much bigger than they actually are, thus giving us an unrealistic picture of the size of some of the places on our planet.
