Explain how scientists use seismic data to learn about the geologic activity and happenings in the earth's interior

Geography
1 answer:
Mekhanik [1.2K]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

In physics, we know that waves usually change direction when are refracted or when they penetrate layers with different densities.

Therefore, when a seismic wave penetrates penetrates the boundary of the earth's interior, part of it will be sent back and part will be transmitted into the medium as refraction occurs. When we record the reflected and refracted ray, it enables the calculation of the position of major boundaries in the Earth's interior. This also helps in providing information about the solid & liquid character as well physical properties of the various layers in the medium.

Match the climate zone in column 1 to the characteristic in column 2.
Aliun [14]

The correct matches are:

- A. Tropical - On the Equator;

- B. Dry - Near the Equator;

- C. Moderate - Mildest weather;

- D. Continental - Severe temperature changes;

The climate types differ from one place to another on our planet, and in general they are separated in zones in accordance to the latitude at which they are.

The tropical climate is the one that lies on and around the Equator, and it is warm and wet for the whole year. Little north and south of the Equator we encounter the dry climates, where the landscape is occupied by deserts, with extremely high temperatures, and very little precipitation. Further north come the moderate climate types and the continental climate types, they are similar to each other, but the temperatures in the moderate climates have less variation, while in the continental ones it is much bigger, also the moderate ones have more precipitation, and the continental ones have less precipitation. They are both in the mid-latitudes.

On saturn, would a person choke in the atmosphere, be squashed by the extreme gravity, float with ease, freeze, burn up, or some
anastassius [24]

Answer:

Saturn is the distinct and large gaseous planet in the solar system that is comprised of a ring on its exterior. It is a planet which has the lowest density. Saturn has an atmosphere of very high thickness and the dominant gas present here is hydrogen and helium. The pressure and the depth in Saturn are directly proportional to one another.

As one goes deep inside the Saturn, the body will eventually shrink and get squashed due to the extreme pressure and also will get freeze due to the extremely low temperature.
