An unconformity, or abnormality in the layers of rocks, signifies that the process of layering was somehow interrupted. The only feasible choice for this would be (B), where erosion would have interrupted the layering process.
Answer:
D.
Explanation:
Given that your boat departs from the bank of a river that has a swift current parallel to its banks. If you want to cross this river in the shortest amount of time, you should direct your boat: so that it drifts with the current.
If the boat moves perpendicular to the current, the current flow will be the resistance to the movement of the boat. So, it's better for the boat to drifts perpendicularly with the current.
The best answer is therefore option D.
Answer:
Volcanic activity is widespread over the earth, but tends to be concentrated in specific locations. Volcanoes are most likely to occur along the margins of tectonic plates, especially in subduction zones where oceanic plates dive under continental plates. As the oceanic plate subducts beneath the surface, intense heat and pressure melts the rock. Molten rock material, magma, can then ooze its way toward the surface where it accumulates at the surface to create a volcano. Volcanic activity can be found along the Mid-ocean ridge system as well. Here, oceanic plates are diverging and magma spreads across the ocean floor, ultimately being exposed at the surface. Crustal spreading long the ridge is partly responsible for the volcanic activity of Iceland. It is also thought that a "hot spot" lies beneath the island that contributes to volcanism.
The answer is energy.
Waves in the ocean are energy travelling along water.
Waves do not transport mass, they transport energy, this is the ability to perform work or exert force and distant points.
Although water seems to be travelling along with the wave, the molecules of water only move up and down; they do not travel along with the wave.
Answer:
1. b. The door is exerting a centripetal force on you that balances the centrifugal force of the turn.
2. b. There is no net force acting on the object.
Explanation:
1. This is because as you move to the right due to the centrifugal force of the turn, a corresponding centripetal force acts on you due to the door which does not allow you fall out of the car since,<u> the door is exerting a centripetal force on you that balances the centrifugal force of the turn. </u>
So, the answer is b
2. This is because, since the object moves at a constant speed and thus does not accelerate, no net force can act on it since, a net force would imply that the object accelerates. Note that a constant speed does not imply that no force acts on it. It only shows that the resultant or net force is zero since the object does not accelerate.
So, <u>there is no net force acting on the object. </u>
So, b is the answer.
