Why do scientists think earth's core contains iron?
fgiga [73]
The overall specific gravity of the earth is much higher than the specific gravity of crustal rocks which means the earth is about twice as heavy as the rocks on the surface would suggest. Iron meteorites are thought to have the same composition as the average earth, and the meteorites contain a lot more iron than the Earth's surface rocks.

The oceanic Pacific plate and the oceanic Juan de Fuca plate are diverging. Which landform would you expect to form?
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

The landform that will form is a mid-ocean ridge.

Explanation:

When tectonic plates move away from each other they form a divergent plate boundary. At this type of boundary, as the plates move away, a gap starts to open up gradually. This gap becomes wider and wider over time and the crust is made much less thick, which in turn presents a good opportunity for the magma to come out on the surface.

Because the crust is weaker and thinner, the magma manages to rise through it and rich the surface relatively easily. As it does, the magma reaching the surface, or rather the bottom of the ocean, it solidifies in the water and as more and more magma comes out it piles up. By piling up and constantly creating new rock an underwater mountain chain starts to form and this type of mountain chain is known as a mid-ocean ridge.

What noticeable effect does air density have on the absorption and radiation of energy? What role does altitude play in that pro
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

As explained below.

Explanation:

  • As the air over the earth surface gets warmed due to the solar radiation coming from the sun which directly heats the upper atmosphere of the earth and thus the air gets heated up and rest light or energy is absorbed by the ground and reflected into the atmosphere.
  • Similarly, the altitude has a major role to play in this process as the place near the tropics and equator air is less dense and hence higher absorption as compared to the higher latitudes the air becomes denser and hence lear absorption takes place.
  • Also with regards to the atmospheric cloud patterns the earth temperatures changes as these bring winds and rainfall and these cool the temperature over the hotter places like air moves from high pressure to low pressure and visa Versa.
