What is the time frame for small foreshocks that precede a major eathquake occur

Geography
1 answer:
Lorico [155]3 years ago
6 0

Scientists can't tell that an earthquake is a foreshock until the larger earthquake happens. The largest, main earthquake is called the mainshock. Mainshocks always have aftershocks that follow. These are smaller earthquakes that occur afterwards in the same place as the mainshock.

Non-sovereign geographic areas that have come under the control of another country.
Andreas93 [3]
In historical terms, this would be called a colony, but currently this name is no longer used and there are no places actually known as "colonies".

The current political term for this is a "territory": this is the correct answer, one example are the overseas territories of France.

In general, the highest relative humidity is observed ___________ and the lowest relative humidity is observed _____________
nikdorinn [45]

In general, the highest relative humidity is observed NEAR SUNRISE and the lowest relative humidity is observed during MID-AFTERNOON.

Relative humidity is inversely proportional to temperature. The colder the climate, the higher the relative humidity. The hotter the temperatures outside, the lower the relative humidity.

Relative humidity increases as the air temperature falls at night and peaks at dawn.  

Temperature peaks during mid-afternoon, thus relative humidity is at its lowest.

The radius of the cone id 1.75 inches an the height id 3.5 inches. If the diameter of the bubble gum ball is 0.5 inches what is
Olegator [25]

Answer: 11.15 in^{3}

Explanation:

We need to know the volume of the cone that can be filled with bubble gum ball, but firstly we need to calculate the volume of the cone V_{C} and the volume of the buble gum ball (a sphere) V_{B}:

<u>Volume of the cone:</u>

V_{C}=\frac{\pi R^{2}h}{3} (1)

Where:

R=1.75 in is the radius of the cone

h=3.5 in is the height of the cone

V_{C}=\frac{\pi (1.75 in)^{2}3.5 in}{3} (2)

V_{C}=11.22 in^{3} (3) This is the volume of the cone

<u>Volume of the gum ball:</u>

V_{B}=\frac{4\pi r^{3}}{3} (4)

Where:

r=\frac{0.5 in}{2}=0.25 in is the radius of the sphere (half the diameter)

V_{B}=\frac{4\pi (0.25 in)^{3}}{3} (5)

V_{B}=0.065 in^{3} (6) This is the volume of the gum ball

Know we are able to find the closest approximation of the volume of the cone that can be filled with bubble gum ball, by calculating the difference or substracting (6) from (3):

V_{C}-V_{B}=11.22 in^{3}-0.065 in^{3} (7)

Finally:

V_{C}-V_{B}=11.15 in^{3} (8)
