What Is one way a rift can form

Geography
2 answers:
Mandarinka [93]4 years ago

Under the pressure and force from the Mantle layer on the Crust layer the continental plates move, when in situation where they move away from each other a rift is starting to form on their ever growing separating like and thus make the rift bigger and bigger. When this happens there's also earthquakes because of the cracks in the Crust layer and they often cause speeding up of the growing of the rift's size.

Air masses that form over __________ carry much more moisture due to evaporation.
DENIUS [597]

Air masses that form over <u>water</u> carry much more moisture due to evaporation.

<h3>Which air mass has the most moisture?</h3>
  • Maritime air masses, also known as ocean air masses, are more humid than continental air masses, which are air masses that originate over land.
  • The air mass's temperature, which varies depending on the latitude at where it formed, is indicated by the second component of the name.

<h3>Why do you suppose the air masses that develop over water are moist?</h3>
  • High air pressure is present in polar or cold air masses.
  • Unsurprisingly, whether an air mass arises over land or water affects its humidity.
  • Due to water evaporation across oceans, maritime air masses frequently have a humid climate.

True or False; Intensity describes the amount of energy released while magnitude describes the amount of damage done by an earth
Westkost [7]

Answer:

FALSE

Explanation:

An earthquake refers to the sudden shaking of the earth, which can cause damage depending on the intensity and magnitude.

The magnitude and intensity are the two main characteristics of an earthquake.  

Magnitude is defined as the amount of energy that is released during an earthquake. This magnitude is measured using a scale known as the 'Richter scale'. The Richter scale ranges from 1 to 10, where an earthquake of magnitude 10 is extremely destructive.

The intensity of an earthquake is defined as the amount of destruction that an earthquake can create. It is measured in terms of a scale which is known as the 'Mercalli Intensity Scale' that ranges from I to XII.

Thus the above-given statement is false.
