Answer:
A) the volcanic activity at subduction zones makes the fault plane stickier and therefore they release more energy when they reach their elastic limit
Explanation:
- As the plate boundaries are very shallow and are able to produce very large earthquakes and thus release more energy when the slabs descent to the mantel and viscosity changes and causes the plates to move bend and deform and thickness of the slabs is also an important factor that determines the high magnitude earthquakes.
Explanation:
Ans: Flowing water picks up soil particles, and carries them along until the flow ebbs and the particles sink to the bottom. ... Anything that reduces the energy of the flow field can cause larger particles to drop below the critical Reynolds number and drop out of the fluid stream (deposition)
The magma forming stratovolcanoes rises when water trapped both in hydrated minerals and in the porous basalt<span> rock of the upper oceanic crust is released into </span>mantle<span> rock of the </span>asthenosphere<span> above the sinking oceanic slab. The release of water from hydrated minerals is termed "dewatering", and occurs at specific pressures and temperatures for each mineral, as the plate descends to greater depths. The water freed from the rock lowers the </span>melting point<span> of the overlying mantle rock, which then undergoes partial melting and rises due to its lighter density relative to the surrounding mantle rock, and pools temporarily at the base of the </span>lithosphere<span>. </span>
Answer:
y = 
x
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Coordinates = (-6, -4)
Equation of a the line; 3y = 2x - 6
Unknown:
Equation of the line parallel to this line = ?
Solution:
The equation of any straight line is expressed as;
y = mx + c
y and x are the coordinate
m is the slope
c is the intercept of the y - axis
Now from the equation, let us find the slope;
3y = 2x - 6
y = 
- 
y = - 2
The slope is
Parallel lines are lines that never meets. Therefore they have the same slope;
the slope of the new line is
Now,
for the new line, we need to find the intercept;
since y = mx + c,
y = -4 and x = -6;
-4 = x (-6) + c
- 4 = -4 + c
c= 0
The equation of the new line is;
y = x
