Geography

pickupchik [31]3 years ago

Explanation:

When light shines on an object, it is reflected, absorbed, or transmitted through the object, depending on the object's material and the frequency (color) of the light. ... However, because light can travel through space, it cannot be a matter wave, like sound or water waves.

When parallel light rays hit a concave mirror they reflect inwards towards a focal point. Each individual ray is still reflecting at the same angle as it hits that small part of the surface. ... Light rays travel towards the mirror in a straight line and are reflected inwards to meet at a point called the focal point. Opaque objects block light from traveling through them. Most of the light is either reflected by the object or absorbed and converted to thermal energy.

Also, when light is reflected from a mirror, it bounces off at the same angle in the opposite direction from which it hit. ... If the surface is concave, or curved inward, a group of light rays from a distant source is reflected back toward a single location known as the focal point

Explain how plate tectonics have changed Earth’s surface over time. Include the role of plate tectonics in the creation of land
Rudiy27

Explanation:

The Earth is comprised of many plates that float on the hot magma in the mantle layer. They are constantly moving but its so slow we can't feel it. A long time ago, all the land on Earth was connected in one big continent named Pangaea. As the plates have moved the land has separated forming the continents.

When plates come together they cause friction between them. This causes the plates to push up forming a mountain. This was how the Himalayan mountains were formed.
