B. <span>centripetal force pulling at right angles to the path of the satellite 

Centripetal force is the force we feel when we spin something around, and it wants to pull away. It isn't a pushing force, which is how I know the answer is not C. And it's definitely not electrical repulsion, so A and D are incorrect as well.</span>

Volcanoes are usually formed as a result of _____.
zepelin [54]

The correct answer is - a convergent boundary, where at least one of the plates is oceanic.

Volcanoes can be formed in multiple types of interactions between the tectonic plates, but most often, they form where there's a convergent boundary between a continental and oceanic tectonic plate. This can easily be seen by the famous ''Ring of Fire'', which is on and around the borders of the Pacific Ocean, and that is due to the heavier Pacific plate subducting beneath the lighter continental plates around it, thus creating a very long chain of volcanoes.

One way people have addressed water shortages in certain areas is by building desalinization plants to remove salt from sea wate
Andre45 [30]
My guess would be Los Angeles because they have been known to have serious, long term droughts. They are also on the west coast, so they have plenty of ocean water that could be used for desalination.
