Answer: The overall lateral lenght of the San Andreas Fault is estimated by measuring the distance on similar terranes on both sides of the fault (continental x pacific). The lenght is increased by eathquake occurrence (here given as 5m per event) and a regular annual displacement rate (estimated in 0,10m per year).
Also, it is acceptable to consider a time lapse of 45 years between each earthquake (considering the major events of 1857, 1906, 1957 and 1989).
Those values of lenght on the fault are considered to vary from 150 to 350 miles. If we apply simple median arithmethical value of 250 miles between these numbers, against the obtained displacement rate of 5,1 meters (let´s set the annual displacement rate aside to balance) we have: 250 miles divided for 0,003 miles (5,1 meters converted to miles) is equal to: 83.333.
So, more than 80.000 thousand eathquakes (considering the movement was mostly made by these earth intercurrences) would be an acceptable number to account for the total actual displacement on the SAF.
Answer:
Reasons for migration.
Explanation:
Migration is a process that has been happening since the emergence of humankind. The main reasons for it have always been the same - a better life and a safer life. While over time there have been numerous other reasons that have emerged as humans developed more and more, the two basic ones are still the leading ones.
- When the Soviets decided to deny the rigths of the Jews, the Jews felt insecure, both financially and for their lives, so they had a big push factor to migrate to other countries.
- Ethiopia is a country where the living conditions are bad, and when the country faces a severe drought the majority of the population experiences famine. Having a lack of food means that your life is at stake, thus people try to move into countries where they will at least have enough food to survive.
- The war in Bosnia, in which the Muslims, Serbians, and Croatians engaged, resulted in genocides. People were naturally affraid for their lives and the lives of their families, so they did everything they can to migrate to safer countries.
- Haiti is one of the poorest countries in the Caribbean region. The widespread poverty means poor living conditions, so being so close to well-developed countries like the USA motivates the people to migrate in order to have better opportunities and higher life quality.
Answer: A.Convergent
The northern margin of the Indian plate is being thrust under a portion of the Eurasian plate. This collision results in the creation of Himalayas and the Tibetan Plateau. This is an example of 2 continental crusts converging and this is known as convergent boundary.
Similarly, Aleutian Islands is formed by the the subduction of the northern part of the Pacific Plate and the NW North American Plate . Also the Andes is formed by the convergence of the Nazca Plate beneath the South American Plate.
Answer:
a logic as a system of reasoning for properly arranging
Explanation:
Answer:
we would likely still be in england
Explanation:
we might have tried again, but it is not likely. The history would have been different, because the ships crashed, and then the people who did not want to do it had a reason to not do it. People may have different views, but this is the way i see it.
