Answer:
A landmass formed within a river is known as riverine islands. Riverine islands are formed when rocks and mud gets deposited in the river bed by flowing rivers.
The correct answer is - c. east.
The Appalachian Mountains are located in the eastern part of the United States, and since the Rocky Mountains are in the western part of the country, it puts them east of the Rocky Mountains.
The Appalachians are a very old mountain range, they are dated to about 480 million years ago when they formed during the Ordovician Period. At their peak, these mountains reached heights similar to the Rocky Mountains and the Alps in Europe, but because of the natural erosion they have shrunk and nowadays are much smaller in height.
Answer:
Option (C)
Explanation:
Coquina is usually defined as a sedimentary limestone rock that is found to be present in the freshwater zones and in the coastal areas. This rock is made up of broken shells that are smaller in size. The rocks can be easily broken down by the constant flowing of sea waves.
This rock is commonly formed in the same way as the other sedimentary rocks, i.e. it is formed by the deposition of sediments carrying these organic remains and eventually undergoes the process of compaction and lithification on the seafloor.
Thus, the correct answer is option (C).
Acceleration is non zero but the velocity is zero.
Answer: Option 2.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Acceleration is the speed that an object gains with in a short period of time. In the language of Mechanics, Acceleration is the change in the velocities of the objects with respect to the time. So when a ball is thrown up in the air, there will be some acceleration and there will be some speed that the ball will gain when thrown up.
Velocity is the speed of an object but in a particular direction. Velocity of an object is the rate of change of the position of the object with respect to the frame of reference of that frame. So the velocity of the ball up in the air is zero.
