Question:
If you lived on Mars and observed the solar system from there, _____________ would describe retrograde loops, ______________ would always be seen near the sun, and _________________ would never be visible as crescent phases
Answer:
1. All other planets
2. Mercury, Venus, and Earth
3. Jupiter and Saturn
Explanation:
Living on Mars, all other planets would describe the retrograde loops, while the inner planets (Mercury, Venus, and Earth
) would always be seen near the sun. Planets like the Jupiter and Saturn which are far away from the sun will never have a crescent phase as those that will have a crescent phase must be between the mars and the sun
Because light travels more than 800 thousand times as fast as sound does.
Answer:
Defined as below
Explanation:
Plate tectonics are defined as the pieces of Earth's crust floating over the liquid asthenosphere or the movements of sheets/plates of hard rock over the rigid mantle. Varying in thickness moving in the directions to there orientation. They are either oceanic or continental plates
Rift valleys are generally linear or are highlands that separated by actions of geologic agents. It may be formed by a divergent or a convergent plate movement. 0n earth can occur on all height above mean sea levels. Extraterrestrial Rift valleys have also been found on planets in the solar system. Example is Eastern valley of africa.
Earthquake is a shaking of the earth from the interior due to the vibrations and waves produced due to the movement of geo-material beneath the earth's crust. These waves are measured on a Richter scale and range from 1 to 12 caused by sliding of the earth plates from the convergent, divergent and transform boundaries. Like the ring of fire an earthquake prone region.
