Continental lithosphere is approximately 150 km thick, while old oceanic lithosphere away from mid-ocean ridges is

Geography
1 answer:
fgiga [73]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

whether it carries oceanic or continental crust: Continental lithosphere is, on average, 150 km thick, although it can be thicker beneath mountain ranges. how far from a mid-oceanic ridge it is. Old oceanic lithosphere is up to 100 km thick, while at the axis of a mid-oceanic ridge, it may be only ten km thick.

He picture below shows a container that Tim uses to freeze water:
Alja [10]
You have a formula : V= \pi r^2h. You just have to apply it. It would gives : 

V= \pi (2)^2(8)
V=32 \pi
V=100.48cm^3

Now, use your mind. How many would be needed to make 2000 cm3.

\frac{2000}{100.48}
=19.94 = 20

Therefore <span>the minimum number of identical containers that Tim would need to make 2,000 cm3 of ice is 20 (option D).

Hope this helps !

How is the cross sectional shape of a glacial valley different from a valley formed by stream erosion?
fgiga [73]
A glacial valley cross-sectional shape is a U shape whereas a stream valley is usually a V shape. The U shape comes from the scouring action of the alpine glaciers which carries rocks with it which can abrade the walls of the valley and the glacier occupies the whole valley so scours out such a shape whereas the stream cuts down and water washes in from the sides of the valley into the stream or river creating the V shape.

Find an equation for the perpendicular bisector of the line segment whose endpoints
zzz [600]

Answer:

y= -7/2x-26/2 or y= -7/2x-13

Explanation:

To solve this question you need all of these formulas:

gradient: \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} , Point-Slope y-y1=m(x-x1) ,

perpendicular m (m1)x(m2)=-1 , Midpoint (\frac{x1+x2}{2},\frac{y1+y2}{2} )

and equation of a line y=mx+c

where m stands for gradient

First things first.

To start you have to know the data of the line that includes the two endpoints, so you calculate its gradient (m) of this line with the gradient fromula: m=\frac{-4-(-8)}{5-(-9)} , which equals 4/14 or 2/7

(It can also be called rise/run) (Remember the rule of signs where - and - equal +)

with that information you can proceed with the point-slope or point-gradient formula, so you plug the values: y-(-8) = 2/7 (x-(-9)), which results in y+8=2/7(x+9) and then y+8=2/7x+18/7.

To finish the equation you move eight to the other side. To simplify things you can change it into a fraction as I did, and remember to change signs.

y=2/7x+18/7 -8 -> y=2/7x+18/7-56/7 . This gives us the number of y=2/7x-38/7, which is the equation of the first line.

Now to know the gradient of the second line you apply the formula of perpendicular bisector where m1 x m2 = -1. We know m1 (gradient of the first line) is 2/7, so m2 = \frac{-1}{2/7} = -7/2. m2 is therefore -7/2

Now you have to know the midpoint between the two endpoints, which will act as the start point of the perpendicular bisector

M (midpoint) = (\frac{-9+5}{2} ,\frac{8+(-4)}{2} ), which give us the coordinates of (-2, -6)

(remember, x coordinate is always first)

with this point we can apply again the point-slope formula to know the equation of the line:

y-(-6)=-7/2(x-(-2)) -> y+6=-7/2(x+2) -> y+6=-7/2x - 14/2

Move the 6 to isolate the y

y=-7/2x -14/2 - 12/2

which equals y= -7/2x -26/2
