Answer:
A) The continents and ocean basins undergo continuous change. Both are parts of lithospheric plates that move against each other. B) Divergent plate in Mid-Atlantic Ridge with material flowing into the ocean. C) A plate moved over a stationary site of magma upwelling "Hot Spot" and created a volcanic island chain over the time
Explanation:
A) The basic thought is, that instead of being permanent fixtures of the earth's surface, the continents and ocean basins undergo continuous change. Both are parts of lithospheric plates that move against each other, and in the process new crust is created at midoceanic ridges (spreading centers), and old crust is consumed at convergent plate boundaries (subduction zones).
B) There are basically three different types of plate boundaries:
Divergent boundaries -- where new crust is generated as the plates pull away from each other.
Convergent boundaries -- where crust is destroyed as one plate dives under another.
Transform boundaries -- where crust is neither produced nor destroyed as the plates slide horizontally past each other.
The best known of the divergent boundaries is the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. This submerged mountain range, which extends from the Arctic Ocean to beyond the southern tip of Africa, is but one segment of the global mid-ocean ridge system that encircles the Earth.
C) The linear arrangement of many seamounts indicates that they formed because the plate moved over a stationary site of magma upwelling, a so called mantle "Hot Spot". Seamounts are submarine volcanoes that may finally build above the water level, in which case they are called islands. If seamounts rise above sea level (due to buildup of material in a cone or upwelling mantle pushes up plate), they are subject to wave erosion and colonization by reefs, with both processes tending to create a flat top on the original volcanic cone.
Answer:5.35nm
Explanation:
Consider that 1 inch is = 0.0254m
we have,
1m= 1x10^9 nm
While:
0.0254m = 2.54x10^7nm
1/55 (2.54x10^7) = 4.6181 x 10^5nm
1 day= 24 hrs
= (24x60) when calculating in min
= (24x60x60) calculating in seconds we have:
= 8.64x10⁴sec
In 8.64x10^4 seconds, the hair grows by 4.6181 x 10^5nm
Therefore, the amount by which the hair grows in 1 second will be;
= (4.6181 x 10^5)/(8.64x10^4)
= 5.35nm
The rate of growth will be 5.35nm
The wave characteristic that is the same for both waves is wavelength.
- Two waves with the same frequency will also have the same wavelength, amplitude, speed, and period. When two waves are travelling at the same frequency, it denotes that their duration and amplitude are also the same.
- When two waves of the same frequency and amplitude interfere constructively, their peaks and troughs align as shown in diagram A above. As a result, the original waves' amplitude is doubled, resulting in a sound wave that is twice as loud.
Thus, Equal frequencies are shared by two waves moving through the same region in the same direction.
