The rotation of Earth is equivalent to one day which is comprised of 24 hours. To determine the number of miles in Earth's circumference, one simply have to multiply the given rate by the appropriate conversion factor and dimensional analysis. This is shown below.
C = (1038 mi/h)(24 h/1 day)
C = 24,912 miles
From the given choices, the nearest value would have to be 20,000 mile. The answer is the second choice.
Answer:
Melt.
Explanation:
When rocks melt, they do so slowly and gradually because most rocks are made of several minerals, which all have different melting points; moreover, the physical and chemical relationships controlling the melting are complex. As a rock melts, for example, its volume changes. When enough rock is melted, the small globules of melt link up and soften the rock.
Under normal conditions, mantle rock like peridotite shouldn't melt in the Earth's upper mantle. However, by adding water you can lower the melting point of the rock. Alternatively, by decompressing the rock, you can bring it to a pressure where the melting point is lower. In both cases, basalt magma will form and considering it is hotter and less dense than the surrounding rock, it will percolate towards the surface and some of that erupts.
Answer:
Statement 2 is wrong
Explanation:
To check the statements in this exercise, let's describe the main properties of electromagnetic waves. Let's describe the characteristics
* they are transverse waves
* formed by the oscillations of the electric and magnetic fields
* the speed of the wave is the speed of light
with these concepts let's review the final statements
1) True. Formed by the oscillation of the two fields
2) False. They are transverse waves
3) True. Can travel by vacuum as they are supported by oscillations of the electric and magnetic fields
4) True. They all have the same speed of light
Statement 2 is wrong
Guess I recommend doing that
