<h2>Answer: They are extra-high tides and extra-low tides.</h2>

Explanation:

Tides are periodic movements of the great masses of water on our planet as part of the gravitational attraction exerted by the moon and the sun on Earth.

In this sense, there are two very special cases: The Spring and Neap tides.

<u>Spring tides </u>

Occur when there is a full moon or new moon, which makes the <u>tides higher.</u> During these lunar phases, the Moon, the Earth and the Sun are aligned and the gravitational attraction power is greater.

<u>Neap tides </u>

Occur when the moon, the earth and the sun form a right angle ( $90\º$ ), being the gravity attraction on the masses of water the minimum. This happens in the crescent and wanning phases.

Answer:

- They occur twice a day.

- They are extra-high tides and extra-low tides.

- They are caused when the Sun and the moon align and exert additional gravitational pull.

What do u know about the scale of map write its types also

Aleks [24]

Answer: Map scale can be defined as the relationship that can be drawn in between the length of the map and the length of the ground.

Explanation:

The unit of the length on the map and the corresponding length of the ground is the map scale. The type of map scales:

Large Scale 1:25,000 or more

Medium Scale 1:1,000,000 to 1:25,000

Small Scale 1:1,000,000 or less

Small scale and medium scale can demonstrate large area for example a country or state whereas the large scale can demonstrate a small area like a city or region of city.

Task 1: Functions and Transformations

Transformations can be thought of as functions that take the points from one object (the pre-

image) to the corresponding points on another object (the image). In the unit, you saw

examples of how algebra can be used to rewrite the coordinates of points after they have

been transformed. You can also use function notation to rewrite the coordinates. For

example, these statements show several different ways you can use function notation for the

translation, T, of a point 6 units in the positive x-direction:

• T(x, y) = (x + 6, y)

T:(, y) = (x + 6, y)

• T<6, 0>(x, y) = (x + 6, y)

16. o(x, y) = (x + 6, 9)

a. Write functions for the following transformations using function notation. Choose a

different letter to represent each function. For example, you can use R to represent

rotations. Assume that a positive rotation occurs in the counterclockwise direction.

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

When the magma, a molten rock flows as lava at the planet's surface, the surface gets cooled after a long, this whole process cause formation of some kinds of minerals on that surface.

Explanation:

Magma and Lava both are types of molten rock. The underground molten rock is called magma while the exploded molten rock on surface is known as lava. When these rocks cools down they get solidified and form crystal rock structure. Cooled magma is called plutonic igneous rock and cooled lava is called volcanic igneous rock. These rock crystals are of different sizes and consist several minerals such as Silicon(Si), Sodium (Na), Potassium (K), Aluminium (Al), Iron(Fe), Magnesium(Mg), Calcium(Ca). Some rocks that forms minerals consist high amount of iron. The amount of minerals and elements in every rock can very depending on shape and size.
