These are all caused by tectonic plate movements. Some areas of the globe are more susceptible to these disasters because they are on or near a fault line where the Earth’s tectonic plates rub against one another, slip beside and under each other, or collide. The places near fault lines are more likely to see earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic activity.
Answer:
Main Asteroid Belt: The majority of known asteroids orbit within the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, generally with not very elongated orbits. The belt is estimated to contain between 1.1 and 1.9 million asteroids larger than 1 kilometer (0.6 mile) in diameter, and millions of smaller ones.
Explanation:
Answer: The comet's average distance from the sun is 17.6AU
Explanation:
From Kepler's 3rd Law, P^2=a^3
Where P is period in years
and a is length of semi-major axis or the average distance of the comet to the sun.
Given the orbital period to be 74 years
74^2 =a^3
5476 = a^3
Cube root of 5476 =a
17.626 = a
Approximately a= 17.6 AU
