Answer:

Diamonds are formed in Mantle and they require large amount of temperature and pressure for their formation. These come up in higher layers due to volcanic eruptions. The pressure is caused by the downward force from the rocks in the crust

Fofino [41]
Since the Earth is almost spherical in shape, we are actually to find first the volume of the spherical segment at a depth of 1,000 m. The radius of the Earth is 6,371,000 meters. The volume of a spherical segment is:

V = 1/3*πh²(3r - h)
Substituting the values and making sure the units is in mm,
V = 1/3*π(1000 m * 1000 mm/1 m)²[3(6,371,000 m * 1000 mm/1 m) - (1000 m * 1000 mm/1 m)]
V = 2×10²² mm³

Thus, the total amount of bacteria is:

2×10²² mm³ * 100 bacteria/1 mm³ = 2×10²⁴ bacteria

Young's Modulus refers to changes in the a Volume b- Length c- Body layers
Novosadov [1.4K]

Explanation:

Young' modulus is the ratio of normal stress to the longitudinal strain. Mathematically, it is given by :

Normal stress is given by force per unit area. Longitudinal strain is the change in length per unit original length.

The mathematical definition of Young's modulus is given by :

Y=\dfrac{F/A}{\Delta L/L}..........(1)

Where

\Delta L is the change in length

F is the force

A is the area of cross section

So, the Young's modulus refers to the change in length of the object. Hence, the correct option is (b) "length".
