Answer:
This is the thermosphere. It is the region of the atmosphere above the mesosphere and below the height at which the atmosphere ceases to have the properties of a continuous medium. The thermosphere is characterized throughout by an increase in temperature with height.
Explanation:
Glaciers shaped the landscape is the answer. Actually, in Nova Scotia near Halifax there is a glacial boulder or erratic of basalt which is deemed to come from about 130km away perhaps from the north or NW. Also, there are glacial striations there on the bedrock which can be used to determine the sense of the direction of flow of the ice. In New England, there are pro-glacial lakes. Both the Maritimes and New England were most likely covered by the Laurentide continental glaciation.
Answer:
The correct answer is C. This maps represents the triangle trade.
Explanation:
The triangular trade was a slave trade in which manufactured goods such as alcohol, metal containers, clothing and firearms were transported from Great Britain (especially Liverpool). Cargo transported in Africa was exchanged for slaves transported to America or the West Indies. The slaves were replaced with sugar, cotton, rum and tobacco. For the shipowner, the deal was risky but very profitable. Each stage was profitable and the cost of the ship could be recovered in just a few trips. The triangle trade was practiced on a full scale since the 17th century and reached its peak in the late 18th century.
The chronometer is a device to measure time in a period of time, therefore not a correct answer.
Answer:
2.62 years
Explanation:
The half life of a material is the time taken for half of the number of radioactive atoms in a radioactive material to remain.
If a radioactive material is cut into pieces, each piece has the same half life as the whole material.
Hence, if Strontium-147 is cut into pieces, each piece will have a half life of 2.62 years, just as the whole material.
