Why there are two high tide bulges on the earth at any given time despite only having one moon.

Geography

SIZIF [17.4K]2 years ago

Thats because on the side of the moon that's facing the Earth, gravity is more powerful on this side, thus, the moon's gravity pulls the ocean's water in this direction, which is called a bulge. On the other side of the moon, inertia is the one that's powerful, this also creates a bulge. These two forces creating bulges at the same time is what causes multiple high tides.

Hope this helps!

Some sedimentary and volcanic rocks and some still-unconsolidated sediments were deposited in this region after the terrane accr
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Igneous and sedimentary rock types led to the formation of terranes as these has occurred during the time of oceanic basin closure.

Explanation:

  • The deposition of sedimentary and volcanic rocks and some still unconsolidated sediments are deposited in the region which is related to the terrane accelerated events.
  • And terrane acceleration is tectonostratigraphic fragmentation of crustal matter which is often broken from the crustal plate and is identified as a fault.
  • Their activity is reflected in igneous rocks when the source material was eroded from the sediments. The youngest ages are constrained by the deposition of schists with active volcanism at its source with the youngest zircon crystallization.
  • Diverse types of acceleration may be found in oceanic plateaus, island, and arcs and composite terranes of stratified, disrupted, metamorphic and composite.
