Answer: 10000
A.) 4170m above sea level ;3330m below sea level
B) 1670 m from the base.
Step-by-step explanation:.
Given that:
Mauna Loa :
4,170 meters (from sea level to summit)
-5000 meters (base of mountain to sea level)
Depth of probe dropped from summit of Mauna Loa = 7500 m
Height of probe relative to sea level :
Depth of probe - height of Mauna Loa(from sea level to summit)
7500 m - 4170 m = 3330 m
Hence, height of probe relative to sea level :
4170m above sea level
3330m below sea level
Distance of probe from base of volcano:
Total depth of Mauna Loa = (4170 + 5000) = 9170m
Total depth of probe = 7500 m
Distance of probe from base :
9170 - 7500 = 1670 m
The probe is 1670 m from the base of the volcano.
