Geography

Answer:

12

Explanation:

GIven: an isosceles trapezoid ABCD with AD = 28, BC = 12, and BE = 9.

We can see that triangle BEA is a right triangle, so let's use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for length AB.

To use the Pythagorean Theorem, we need the lengths of both legs. But we only have one! So let's solve for AE.

28-12=16\\\frac{16}{2} =8\\AE = 8

Now we know the lengths of both legs of right triangle BEA, so let's use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for the hypotenuse, AB!

Pythagorean Theorem: a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2} where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse.

a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}

8^{2} + 9^{2} =c^{2}

64 +81=c^{2}

145=c^{2}

\sqrt{145} =c

c ≈ 12

Question

Mid-ocean ridges are steeper and less broad than rises because:

Group of answer choices

A) the rocks of the mid-ocean ridges are composed of more dense mineral than the rises.

B) the rocks of the mid-ocean ridges are composed of less dense mineral than the rises.

C) The seafloor spreading rate of ridges are faster than rises causing the oceanic crust to subside closer to the ridge axis.

D) The seafloor spreading rate of ridges are slower than rises causing the oceanic crust to subside closer to the ridge axis.

E) Every ridge is composed of continental crust.

Answer:  

The correct answer is D.

Explanation:

In volcanic regions, as the molten magma flows out onto the seafloor creating new beds, the faster it flows, the less steep the mid-ocean ridge is. If however, it is slow-flowing, then oceanic lithosphere formed cool closer to the ridge axis thus making it very steep.

Cheers!

liq [111]

The correct answer is - A. each nation desires an independent sovereign state.

It is very rare that a multinational state can function without any ethic or separatist problems. Most of the ethnic groups want to have their own independent state and not be ruled by someone else from another ethnic background. There lots of examples of this throughout the world, like Spain, were the Catalans in the northeastern part of the country, and the Basques in the northern part of the country, have strong separatist movements, and have been trying for decades to become independent states.
