Answer:

The correct answer would be A. gulf.

We can immediately eliminate option B and D, because rivers and straits are normally smaller than bays.

Option C wouldn't make sense either, since an estuary is not an area enclosed by land, but rather an area where streams and rivers flow into a larger body of water, like an ocean.

Ultimately, this gives the correct answer to be A. Gulf.

Let me know if this helps!

How do people who supply their own water generally obtain it?

satela [25.4K]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

By digging tube wells

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Water can be obtained from the land by digging a hole in the earth surface. The process is called boring. A tube well is a type of water well in which a long, 100–200 millimeters-wide, stainless steel tube or pipe is bored into an underground aquifer. In this way people who supply their own water to other areas or people generally obtain it by using tube wells where they attach a motor to it for speedy suction and then transfer the water to destination by using pipes.

A circle has a diameter

torisob [31]

The circumference of circle is 20.096 units

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that circle has a diameter with endpoints at (10, 8) and (5, 4)

To get the diameter, find the distance between the end points

<em><u>The distance between two points is given by formula;</u></em>

$d=\sqrt{\left(x_{2}-x_{1}\right)^{2}+\left(y_{2}-y_{1}\right)^{2}}$

Here the points are (10, 8) and (5, 4)

$(x_1, y_1) = (10, 8)\\\\(x_2, y_2) = (5, 4)$

Substituting the values we get,

$\begin{aligned}&d=\sqrt{(5-10)^{2}+(4-8)^{2}}\\\\&d=\sqrt{(-5)^{2}+(-4)^{2}}=\sqrt{25+16}=\sqrt{41}\end{aligned}$

$d = \sqrt{41} = 6.4$

Thus the diameter is 6.4 units

<em><u>The circumference of the circle is given by formula:</u></em>

$c = \pi d$

Where "d" is the diameter of circle

$c = 3.14 \times 6.4 = 20.096$

Thus circumference of circle is 20.096 units

Which type of plate boundary is most closely associated with the formation of new ocean floor? which type of plate boundary is m

Maru [420]

The appropriate answer is B. DIVERGENT. Divergent margins occur where two oceanic plates are pulling apart or it can occur where a Continental landmass is pulling apart.

As oceanic plates pull apart magma up wells from the mantle and new crust is formed along what is called a spreading ridge. The Mid Alantic ridge is an example of a spreading ridge where new oceanic crust is being formed.
