Displacement is usually how the messure the rock
Answer:
Radio waves
Explanation:
The electromagnetic spectrum includes all different types of waves, which are usually classified depending on their frequency. Ordering them from the highest frequency to the lowest frequency, they are:
- Gamma rays
- X-rays
- Ultraviolet
- Visible light
- Infrared radiation
- Microwaves
- Radio waves
Radio waves are the electromagnetic waves with lowest frequency, their frequency is lower than 300 GHz (
) and therefore they are the electromagnetic waves with lowest energy (in fact, the energy of an electromagnetic wave is proportional to its frequency). They are generally used for radio and telecommunications since this type of waves can travel up to long distances.
Answer:
The pacific floor (oceanic crust) is thinner and more denser
Explanation:
The continental crust have a thickness of about 35 to 40 km on an average, and are composed of rocks that has less denser granitic minerals such as feldspar, quartz.
On the other hand, the oceanic crust have a thickness of about 7 to 10 km on an average, and it is comprised of denser mafic rocks that contains high amount of olivine and pyroxene minerals.
Due to this, the oceanic crust subducts below the continental crust during the time of collision.
Thus, the pacific floor (oceanic crust) is thinner and more denser, in comparison to the South American continental crust.
