Answer:

Sedimentary rocks: They are made of weather pieces of rocks

They are formed above earth's surface

Both: They have a diverse composition, they may contain many types of minerals.

They are solid at room temperatures.

Intrusive Igneous Rocks: They are made of molten rocks called magma.

They are formed in Earth's crust or mantle.

Explanation:

<em>Sedimentary rocks:</em>

first one is obvious, sedimentary rocks are made from weathering

second one is tricky, although both Sedimentary rocks and Igneous Rocks could potentially form above earth's surface, the category provided here is "<em>Intrusive Igneous Rocks", </em>which is formed under Earth's surface, only extrusive Igneous rocks are formed above Earth's surface.

<em />

<em>Both:</em>

They are both rocks not minerals so they definitely have diverse compositions.

And one of the factors of rocks is that they are solid in room temperature.

<em>Intrusive Igneous Rocks:</em>

Igneous rocks are made when magma cools down.

Earth's crust is the solid part and the most outer part of Earth's layer, Extrusive Igneous rocks happened to form here when magma cools down and solidifies, mantle is the second outer part of Earth, where some intrusive rocks are solidified while still in the magma.

Based on the data, describe the relationship between the age of the rocks and their distance from the mid-ocean ridge *
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

The closer the rocks are to the mid-ocean ridge the younger they are, and the further away they are the older they are.

Explanation:

The ocean floor gives us one of the best if not the best evidence for the movement of tectonic plates, and definitely the best when it comes to ocean floor spreading. When the convection currents are stronger at parts, they manage to break up tectonic plates, moving them apart, and gradually forming an ocean.

The magma that is pushed through the gap is quickly cooling off and solidifies into a new rock on the ocean floor. Because magma keeps coming constantly for millions of years, the new rock that forms constantly pushes away the preexisting rock. This leads to a situation where the youngest rocks are always found at the mid-ocean ridge because it is there where they form. The further a rock is from the mid-ocean ridge the older it is. The oldest rocks are found at the edges of plate boundaries that are on the opposite sides of the mid-ocean ridge, and they often tend to be a subject of subduction.

Identify by name the two tectonic plates labeled on the map above that are located directly on each side of
coldgirl [10]
The Earthquake epicenter is located next to the Japanese islands, as it is seen and labeled on the picture.

The  tectonic plate that is to the right and below the epicenter is the Pacific Plate- this is easy to see on the picture.

The plate to the left is a little more confusing, but if you look closely, it is the Okhotsk plate- you know this because there are no boundaries between the name of the plate and the epicenter.

10) What two variables determine your windchill?
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

Air temperature and the Velocity of Air.

Explanation:

Wind chills is the measure of the temperature when the wind is blowing.So when the wind is blowing and if it comes in contact of our skin it draws heat from our body hence we feel cold more the speed of the wind more cold we feel.

So the two main variables that are used to measure the wind chill are Air Temperature in Fahrenheit and Wind speed in miles per hour.
