Answer:
C. An imaginary line that splits Earth in half between the North Pole and the South Pole
Explanation:
The 0-degree latitude line is the equator. It is the only line of latitude that is a great circle. The equator divides the earth equally between the North Pole and the South pole.
Places above the equator are the northern hemisphere whereas, those below fall into the southern hemisphere.
- The equator is the only known great circle.
- All other lines of latitudes are small circles.
- Most places along the equator usually have the sun overhead and receive direct insolation.
Other choices are wrong;
- The northernmost point on earth is the north pole
- An imaginary line that runs through Greenwich in London is the Prime meridian
- The southernmost point of Earth is the south pole.
Answer: 36 months
Explanation:
The earth complete its orbit in 12 months
While the superior planet complete its orbit in 18 months
Therefore since they are moving in the same direction, both planet will meet at the point where the superior planet and earth completes x and x+1 number of orbits.
Where x is a constant that represents number of orbits.
The period y when they both complete x and x+1 orbit respectively are;
y= 18x and y = 12(x+1)
Equating the two equations, we have,
18x=12(x+1) = 12x + 12
18x-12x= 12
x= 12/6= 2
Since x= 2
y= 18x=18×2= 36months
y= 36 months
Goodluck...
Answer: C ON 12 AND a on 11
Explanation:
Answer:
The Himalayan Mountains by India, Nepal, and China are the best example of a convergent plate boundary.
Explanation:
The Himalayan Mountains are the highest mountain range in the world, but also the most massive one. It acts as a natural boundary between Southern, Southeastern, Eastern, Central, and Southwestern Asia. This mountain range is a relatively young one (geologically speaking), and it has formed because of the collision between the Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates.
When India diverged from Gondwana, it started to move toward Eurasia. After tens of millions of years, the Indian plate hit the Eurasian plate from the south, and with both of the plates being continental and having a boundary with their continental parts, they created a convergent plate boundary. The pressure between the plates has resulted in lifting up the crust, gradually creating a huge mountain range.
The answer is faults because when divergent boundaries occur, the tectonic plates move away from each other, therefor creating a fault in the earths crust.
