Answer:
Subducting convergent boundary
Explanation:
Generally, volcanoes occurs in both divergent and convergent boundaries. But the convergent boundary it occurs is usually associated with subduction.
Divergent boundary, plates move away from each other creating a new crust in the process. The diverging plates creates the space for magma to be squeezed through cracks and fissures. The magma's erupt to form volcanoes. In the Atlantic ocean the spreading of the plates causes an upwelling of magma through the crest of the Atlantic ridges. New oceanic crust are formed through this process. Sometimes the magma eruption forms volcanoes that are higher than the sea level.
Convergent boundary , plates collides with each other . But in the case of volcanoes existence , the collision should be between a denser plate(oceanic plates) and a less dense plates(continental plates) so that subduction can take place. The subducted plates (oceanic plates) creates trenches and get expose to high temperature and pressure as it sinks toward the mantle. The upper mantle rocks melts and migrate to the earth surface forming volcanoes . Over 75% of the volcanoes occur along the pacific basin where convergent boundary is dominant. Pacific ring of fire has one of the most number of volcanoes.
When warm currents move over cool land surface, they dissipate heat due to
the temperature gradient . They hence warm up the land they blow over. If a
cold current blows over warm land, the land loses heat to the current. This is
how currents distribute heat across the earth.
When the current blow from water to land, the current will be warm or cold
depending on the water temperatures. Therefore, they will warm up or cool the adjacent
land mass.
Answer:
10000 Bq / 625 Pq = 16
Radioactivity has decreased by a factor of 16
2^4 = 16
So the sample has gone thru 4 half-lives
24 da / 4 = 6 da
6 da is the half-life
