Mountains in North America appear to be part of the same chain of mountains as those in Northern Europe.

Explanation:

One of the evidence Wegener used to develop the theory of continental drift is that he observed that mountains in North America appear to be of the same chain of mountains as those in Northern Europe.

Alfred Wegener in 1912, proposed his theory of continental drift to explain that continents have moved to their present day position. He called the original super continent, Pangaea.

His theory was refuted because there was no mechanism to explain the moving continents.

Some of his supporting observations are listed below

  • Wegener observed that coal sequences in rocks of North America shared similar characteristics.
  • The matching mountains chains along the edges of East South America and southern Africa provided backing for this idea.
  • Mesosaurus fossils found between two continents.
  • Fitting of the continents into a single land mass.

20 quantities and classified them in vector and scaler quantities​
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

A scalar quantity is defined as the physical quantity that has only magnitude, for example, mass and electric charge. On the other hand, a vector quantity is defined as the physical quantity that has both magnitude as well as direction like force and weight.

Using diagram differentiate between solenoid and a toroid
damaskus [11]

The Toroid is form when you have wound conductor around circular body. In this case you have magnatic field inside the core but you dont have any poles because circular body dont have ends. This can be used where you want minimum flux leakage and dont need magnatic poles. i.e. toroidal inductor, toroidal transformer.


The Solenoid is forn when you wound conductor around body with limb. In this case magnatic field creates two poles N and S. Solenoids have little bit flux leakage. This used where you want magnatic poles and flux leakage is not an issue. i.e. relay, motors, electromagnates.

1 == toroid


2= solenoid
