Answer:
Correct answer is: Due to interaction between Pacific and North American plate.
Explanation:
Mountain Redoubt is located in south Alaska. Mentioned mountain is in the vicinity of convergent plate boundary between North American and Pacific plate.
Convergent boundary means that those plates are <em>colliding</em>. One plate always slides beneath another, and in this case Pacific plate slides beneath North American. Area of collision is known as subduction zone.
Pacific plate is oceanic plate, and North American is continental plate. Oceanic plates <u>always slides</u> beneath continental ones. Reason for that is due to their density. Oceanic plates are denser, so they go under continental ones.
Pacific and North American plate interaction is typicall oceanic-continetal boundary where <em>earthquakes</em> (seismic activity) and <em>active volcanoes</em> are common. Some of the strongest earthquakes happened in this area. That was in 1964 in Prince William Sound in the south coast of Alaska. Magnitude was 9.2M, second strongest quake ever recorded in world's history.
Istanbul. It's Istanbul, not Constantinople!
<span>The correct answer here is drought. A drought is when there is a shortage of water, due to a long period of time in which there if far less rainfall than would normally be expected in any one area.</span>
Which of these statements is most likely correct about the stars?
Star 2 attracts Star 1 with a greater gravitational force than Star 1 attracts Star 2.
No, because Third Newton Law states that both forces are equal in magnitude.
Earth exerts almost equal gravitation force on both the stars.
No, because the Universal Gravitational Law, estblished by Newton, states the atraction force to two masses is proportional to the product of the masses.
Star 1 attracts Star 2 with a greater gravitational force than Star 2 attracts Star 1.
No (same reason for the first statement)
Earth exerts greater gravitation force on Star 2 than on Star 1.
Right. This is the correct statement. Given the mass of Star 2 is greater than the mass of Star 1, by the Universal Gravitational Law, the earth exerts greater gravitational attraction on Star 2.
