We can estimate the age of an open cluster of stars by examining (The turnoff point of the cluster)
The Mayan and other Mesoamerican cultures used a vigesimal number system based on base 20 (and, to some extent, base 5), probably originally developed from counting on fingers and toes. The numerals consisted of only three symbols: zero, represented as a shell shape; one, a dot; and five, a bar.
Oceanic Crust
Continental Crust
Oceanic crust is denser than continental, this is why continents are at higher elevation than oceans.
Answer:
Doldrums, also called equatorial calms, equatorial regions of light ocean currents and winds within the intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ), a belt of converging winds and rising air encircling Earth near the Equator.
V shaped contour line pointing downhill indicate a ridge line, while the ones pointing uphill indicate a water flow.
Explanation:
The contour lines are one of the basic and most important elements on the maps. While in general they are associated with representing the elevation, they actually tell much more about the topography of a place. In a typical contour line, it is relatively common that the V shape occurs at particular places.
The V shape can be pointed downhill or uphill. The ones that point downhill are indicators of a ridge line, thus they show us the ridge more easily, so we can orientate better and have better representation of the area. The ones that point uphill, on the other hand, are indicators that there is a water flow, or there was a water flow. The rivers and streams with their erosive power manage to create such shapes in the relief, if viewed from above. The opening on the V is from where the water flows down.
Some of the types of contour lines are:
- isopleths
- isohyets
- isobars
- isobaths
- isoterms
- isonephs
