Answer:
Convergence of oceanic and continental plates
Explanation:
- The plate tectonics states that the sedimentary on the earth has been formed from the sea beds or the ocean floor that was moved due to the deposition and accumulation of the sediments were small particles got cemented and compacted.
- Formed due to the weather and erosion from the source area, and deposited by the ice, water, and mass wasting processes. Theses deposited in layers of strata led to the formation of natural resources like coal, natural gas, and fossil fuels.
- The places were the large scale sedimentation takes place are said to be sedimentary basin and its depth and size depend on the earth's internal forces.
Answer:
It is classified as a right lateral (dextral) strike-slip fault. Although both plates are moving in a north westerly direction, the Pacific Plate is moving faster than the North American Plate, so the relative movement of the North American Plate is to the south east.
Explanation:
The San Andreas Fault is a continental transform fault that extends roughly 1,200 kilometers (750 mi) through California. It forms the tectonic boundary between the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate, and its motion is right-lateral strike-slip (horizontal).
Option B is correct. The correct sequence regarding the angles of the triangle is mAngleY < mAngleZ < mAngleX
Given the length of the triangle expressed as;
XY = m + 8
YZ = 2m + 3
ZX = m - 3
According to the triangular theorem, the third side of the triangle is less than the sum of the other two sides, hence:
ZX < XY + YZ
m - 3 < m + 8 + 2m + 3
m - 3 < 3m + 11
m - 3m < 11 + 3
-2m < 14
m > -14/2
m > -7
Assuming that m = 6, since 5 > -7
ZX = m - 3
ZX = 6 - 3
ZX = 3
XY = m + 8
XY = 6 + 8
XY = 14
YZ = 2m + 3
YZ = 2(6) + 3
YZ = 12 + 3
YZ = 15
From the solutions, we can see that ZX < ZX < YZ, hence mAngleY < mAngleZ < mAngleX
