Basaltic rocks of the ocean plates are much denser and heavier than the granitic rock of the continental plates. Because of this the continents ride on the denser oceanic plates. The crust and the upper layer of the mantle together make up a zone of rigid, brittle rock called the Lithosphere .

Sheena wants to measure the volume of a ball that is 24 cm across. How should she set up her equation?
Semmy [17]
Given that Sheena's ball is a sphere, its volume can be obtained by using the formula: V_ball = (4/3)*pi*r^3, where, r is the radius of the sphere. Since the ball is 24 cm across, this means that the radius is half of the diameter which is equal to 12 cm. Thus, the volume of the ball is equal to 7238.2295 cm^2.
