<h2>Answer:</h2>

West Coast of the United States formed by <u>rupture and Pangaea breakup that occurred about 200 million years ago</u>.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The occurrence of these events resulted in Northern American Plate moving towards the west. This resulted in the creation of an active margin on the western continent. Further motion created an accumulation of terrains where the west coast occurred.

Increase of terrain accumulation and crustal shortening during orogeny in different eras and also faulting are some other occurrences. In another era, crustal extension occurred followed by magmatism which is the character of the area now.

Lisa [10]

Answer:

Below is a good projection/coordinate system from the predefined coordinate systems in ArcGIS for maps of the following areas:

California - nad 83 utm zone 10n

New Jersey - nad 83 utm zone 18n

Nevada – nad 83 utm zone 11n

New Hampshire - Nad 83 utm zone 19n

England – epsg 2770

Antartica – epsg 3031

Explanation:

With respect to projection, California has a longitude and latitude that is in line with that of Humboldt country.

   Thus, California - nad 83 utm zone 10n

With respect to projection,  New Jersey follow the nad 83.

 Thus, New Jersey - nad 83 utm zone 18n

Different projections are used for the Nevada, rather than that of the state planes.

   Nevada – nad 83 utm zone 11n

With respect to projection, New Hampshire has a longitude and latitude that is in line with that of Grafton country

   Thus, New Hampshire - Nad 83 utm zone 19n

England completely depends up on the pointed shaped.

  Thus, England – epsg 2770

Antartica exists in latitude wise high zone.

   Antartica – epsg 3031

Tamiku [17]

Placemark takes you to an ENE view of a steep, seaward-sloping face behind the flat, coastal sea terrace on which people have built homes. The place mark is positioned on the most recent, active mudslide, which is the infamous La Conchita mudslide. Why do you think this mudslide occurred? On January 10, 2005, a landslide struck the community of La Conchita in Ventura County, California, destroying or seriously damaging 36 houses and killing 10 people.

the area has little vegetation to hold the soil

the area could have been undercut by the road halfway up the slope

the sea terrace on which the houses sit has over-steepened the cliff
