12. Zoom out and examine the dozens of sunken volcanoes out past Nihoa, named the Emperor Seamounts. As one of these volcanic is
lands on the Pacific Plate moves off the hotspot it becomes inactive, or extinct, and the island begins to sink as it and the surrounding tectonic plate cool down. The speed the islands are sinking can be estimated by measuring the difference in elevation between two islands and dividing by the difference in their ages (this method assumes the islands were a similar size when they were active). Calculate how fast the Hawaiian Islands are sinking, by using the ages and elevations of Maui and Nihoa.

Calculate how fast the Hawaiian Islands are sinking, by using the ages and elevations of Maui and Nihoa. 13. Using the speed you calculated in the previous question and ignoring possible changes in sea level), when will the Big Island of Hawaii sink below the surface of the ocean? Divide the current maximum elevation of the Big Island by the rate you calculated in the previous question. 14. Now zoom out to -4000 miles eye altitude and look at the chain of Hawaiian Islands again. Notice the chain continues for thousands of miles up to Aleutian Islands (between Alaska and Siberia). Examine the northernmost sunken volcano (50 49 16.99N 167 16 36.12E) in this chain. Where was that volcano located when it was still active, erupting, and above the surface of the ocean? a. 50 49 16.99N 167 16 36.12E b52 31 48.72N 166 25 43.14W c. 27 45 49.27N 177 10 08.75W d. 1928 15.23N 155 19 14.43W
Answer: Hungary's history helped set it apart from other countries in Eastern europe by siding with germany in world war 1. Meanwhile Hungary being under Austrian rule, Bulgaria was under Ottoman empire rule. Bulgaria was ruled by Ottoman empire for 500 years but Hungary was under Ottoman empire rule for 158 years.
One way the conflict between India and Pakistan over Kashmir and the conflict between the Palestinians and Israelis in the Middle East are similar is that "(1) Both conflicts concern territorial and
Answer:One of the most harmful effects of inversions is that they trap the pollution close to the ground, trapping the smog. When there is a temperature inversion, the affect is just the opposite. If the inversion is strong enough, it can cause far off objects to look like they are floating above the ground.
