Answer 1

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.
