Answer:

#1. B. Alfred Wegener

#2. C. Volcanic activity at the ocean bottom.

#3. B, C. Continental, Sea floor (oceanic).

#4. B. Folding

#5. B. Tectonics

#6. C. Point underground where the earthquake starts

#7. C. Flood waters carrying away soil

Explanation:

#1. Alfred Lothar Wegener was a German polar researcher, geophysicist and meteorologist. During his lifetime he was primarily known for his achievements in meteorology and as a pioneer of polar research, and is also known as the father of plate tectonics.

#2. The most prominent feature of ocean topography discovered in the 1960s was: Volcanic activity at the ocean bottom. The continents have always been in their current positions.

#3. Tectonic plates are composed of oceanic lithosphere and thicker continental lithosphere, each topped by its own kind of crust. The two types of tectonic plates are continental and oceanic tectonic plates.

#4. Tremendous pushing forces exerted by two of Earth's plates moving together squeezed rock layers from opposite sides. This caused the rock layers to buckle and fold, forming folded mountains. Folded mountains are mountains formed by the folding of rock layers caused by compression forces.

#5. Plate tectonics is the scientific theory explaining the movement of the earth's crust. It is widely accepted by scientists today. Recall that both continental landmasses and the ocean floor are part of the earth's crust, and that the crust is broken into individual pieces called tectonic plates.

#6. The hypocenter is the point within the earth where an earthquake rupture starts. The epicenter is the point directly above it at the surface of the Earth. Also commonly termed the focus. See also epicenter.

#7. This process is known as erosion. In earth science, erosion is the action of surface processes that removes soil, rock, or dissolved material from one location on the Earth's crust, and then transports it to another location.

Hope this helps!

Have a nice day!

What did Galileo discover when he dropped two cannon balls of different weights from the Leaning Tower of Pisa?
Studentka2010 [4]
Galileo discovered that gravity affects acceleration of objects regardless of their mass. The cannon balls were different weights and were dropped from different heights yet both balls landed at the same time.

A comet is traveling in outer space with a velocity of 2000 m s. How long will it take to travel 300.000 meters?
nevsk [136]

Answer:

.15s

Explanation:

Follow the units here. If you divide 300.000m by 2000m/s then you'll end up with the meters reduced and just the seconds. So that's what you do to get the time:

(300.000m)/(2000m/s ) =

(300.000/2000)(m•s/m) =

0.15s

How much work will it take to lift a 2-kg pair of hiking boots 2 meters off the
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Option C - 39.2 J

Explanation:

We are given that;

Mass; m = 2 kg.

Distance moved off the floor;d = 10 m.

Acceleration due to gravity;g = 9.8 m/s².

We want to find the work done.

Now, the Formula for work done is given by;

Work = Force × displacement.

In this case, it's force of gravity to lift up the boots, thus;

Formula for this force is;

Force = mass x acceleration due to gravity

Force = 2 × 9.8 = 19.2 N

∴ Work done = 19.6 × 2

Work done = 39.2 J.

Hence, the Work done to life the boot of 2 kg to a height of 2 m is 39.2 J.
