Upper mantle

The theory of the plate tectonics uses the convection cells in the upper mantle layer as the foundation for the movement of the continents.
To put it simple the process is explained like the convection cells create a lot of pressure, that pressure, supported by the high temperatures and magma, influence the crust above, and manage to crack it on certain places. As the crust cracks, it becomes a separate entity, and under the enormous force from bellow it slowly moves into a particular direction, and that is actually the movement of the tectonic plates.

The floor of the Atlantic Ocean is spreading slowly. It spreads at the rate of 1 to 10 centimeters per year. Why would it be use
In-s [12.5K]

C because...

Models represent objects, events, and processes in the real world.

Models are often used when an object, event, or process

occurs too slowly or too quickly;

is too small or too large;

is too complicated or too dangerous.

The ocean is spreading at such a slow rate that it would take scientists 50 or more years to collect enough meaningful data from the ocean floor to complete a study. Therefore, scientists use models in order to both predict how the floor will keep spreading and to understand what the ocean floor looked like thousands of years in the past.

An exoplanet is in an elliptical orbit around a distant star. At its closest approach, the exoplanet is 0.540 AU from the star a
atroni [7]

Answer:

0.71121 km/s

Explanation:

v_1 = Velocity of planet initially = 54 km/s

r_1 = Distance from star = 0.54 AU

v_2 = Final velocity of planet

r_2 = Final distance from star = 41 AU

As the angular momentum of the system is conserved

mv_1r_1=mv_2r_2\\\Rightarrow v_1r_1=v_2r_2\\\Rightarrow v_2=\frac{v_1r_1}{r_2}\\\Rightarrow v_2=\frac{54\times 0.54}{41}\\\Rightarrow v_2=0.71121\ km/s

When the exoplanet is at its farthest distance from the star the speed is 0.71121 km/s.
