4.Volcanoes and earthquakes are both produced from the divergent and convergent movement of the tectonic plate boundaries. The best association to this is the pacific ring of fire wherein, most of the earthquake epicenters are located on the pacific plate on the ring of volcanoes.

5.Answer. It is important to identify areas that are prone to earthquakes in order to prepare for the possibility that they may occur. ... If there is an area that rarely receives earthquakes of any significant size, there is no reason to construct every bridge, building, etc, to be earthquake resistant.

suppose your surface body temperature averages 90^0 F. How much radiant energy in micrometer would be emitted from your body. De
tester [92]

Answer:

\lambda=9.75\mu m

Explanation:

Given that,

The temperature of the surface = 90°F = 305.372 K

We need to find the wavelength of maximum energy emission of your body. According to the Wien's law,

\lambda T=2.98\times 10^{-3}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{2.98\times 10^{-3}}{T}

Put all the values,

\lambda=\dfrac{2.98\times 10^{-3}}{305.372 }\\\\\lambda=9.75\mu m

So, the required wavelength is equal to 9.75\mu m.
