Answer:
Hannibal's losses in the Second Punic War effectively put an end to Carthage's empire in the western Mediterranean, leaving Rome in control of Spain and allowing Carthage to retain only its territory in North Africa. Carthage was also forced to give up its fleet and pay a large indemnity to Rome in silver.
Answer:
The plates will collide in 50,000,000 years.
Explanation:
The tectonic plates are constantly moving. Their movement results in some of them to collide, thus to form convergent plate boundaries. In this case, we have two plates that are relatively far away and the movement is about the average. In order to find out how many years will be needed for the plates to collide we need to:
- convert the km into cm
- divide the distance (in cm) between the plates with the rate of movement of the plate
1 km = 100,000 cm
100,000 x 1,500 = 150,000,000 cm
150,000,000 / 3 = 50,000,000 years
We get a result of 50 million years, meaning the plates will collide in this much time, which in geological terms is actually not that long.
