What happens to Earth's surface when horizontal pressure is applied to rocks?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

When a horizontal pressure is applied to rocks, the earth's surface will form lines that are perpendicular to the direction of the pressure. This can be compared to folds in a wrinkled rug lying on a floor.

Answer 2

Answer:

When a horizontal pressure is applied to rocks, the earth's surface will form lines that are perpendicular to the direction of the pressure.

The tectonic plates can rearrange. if they overlap one into another because of the pressure, new hills, mountains and a volcano could form. These effects will be tragic for a community of people who live precisely in shocking area,  could lose their properties.

Select three cities that are experiencing dry conditions Seattle, Charleston, New York and Washington DC

Answers

Answer:

Seattle, New York city, Washington D.C.

Explanation:

Air pressure changes the temperature of the environment. When the warm air rises above, the pressure is low. At the same time, when the cold air sinks down, the air pressure is said to be high. Places that has high pressure experiences a dry environment with clear skies. According to the given map, Seattle, New York city, and Washington D.C. are experiencing the dry and clean conditions.

Mid-oceanic ridge is a long mountain range on the ocean floor, extending almost continuously through the North and South Atlantic Oceans, the Indian Ocean, and the South Pacific Ocean. A deep rift valley is located at its center, from which magma flows and forms new oceanic crust. As the magma cools and hardens it becomes part of the mountain range. Mid-oceanic ridges form when tectonic plates meet beneath the ocean and ridge-push, slab-pull or do both to create a subduction zone. See Also :

Answers

Answer:

Both.

Explanation:

Both ridge-push and slab-pull is responsible for the formation of Mid-oceanic ridges. Ridge push occurs due to gravitational force. As the rocks near the ridge cool down, they become denser as compared to the Mantle so the gravity pulls them away whereas, Slab pull is the pulling force exerted by a cold, dense oceanic plate dive quickly into the mantle due to its higher weight as compared to Mantle. So both ridge-push and slab-pull occurs at the Mid-oceanic ridges.

Assess the reasons why some countries are more vulnerable than others to the impacts of tropical cyclones? (8) marker
The case studies are hurrican katrina and cyclone Alia

Answers

Explanation:

Because of the diversity of human and physical factors that contribute to the variation of degree of vulnerability across a country, especially when the complexity of interaction between them is considered, no country or population has the same vulnerabilities to natural disasters as another. Instead, the geography of a country combined with its level of political, social and economic development interplay to dictate how hazard proximity and vulnerability combine to cause, or avoid, a disaster. Recent tectonic disasters such as the 2010 Haiti earthquake, 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan, display two contrasting, but both commandingly devastating, instances in which a predisposition to tectonic hazards and vulnerability caused great human, economic and structural devastation.

What are the benefits and drawbacks to the different kinds of compasses that have been invented?

Answers

Answer:Disadvantages

It is less precise compared to other advanced methods of surveying.

It is easily subjected to various errors such as errors adjoining magnetic meridian, local attraction etc.

Imperfect sighting of the ranging rods and inaccurate leveling also causes error.

ADVANTAGES: Does not require any electrical power to function (except for night illumination), therefore is not affected by the loss of power. Tends to be more stable than a fluxgate compass. Usually, the bigger the compass card diameter on a magnetic compass, the more stable, (and also the easier to read)

There are different kinds of compasses that are differently built and have different purposes. We will mention some of them here:

Two main types of the compass are magnetic compass and gyro compass. First one has a magnetic element (needle or a card) that aligns itself with magnetic lines of Earth's magnetic field to point to the magnetic poles of the Earth. Gyro compass has a rapidly spinning wheel whose rotation interacts with the rotation of the earth until its axis of rotation is parallel with the Earth's and points to the Earth's rotational poles. This compass points to the true poles of the Earth. Liquid compass - has a magnetized needle or card immersed in fluid. This method lessens excessive swing and wobble and improves readability while reducing wear.

Marine compass or a card compass - This type of compass has a needle that is fixed and a compass card that is mounted in fluid and rotates according to orientation. It is used on boats because the moving card absorbs much of the motion of a boat which makes it easier to read than a needle compass. Prismatic compass or lensatic compass - has a glass prism or a lens and a lid that has a hairline. These are used for lining up with an object whose bearing is sought. It also has compass card which rotates in the base. When the compass card stops, the required bearing is read off through the prisms or lens. Some of them have liquid as a damping mechanism while other use electromagnetic induction for the same purpose. Some also have tritium and a combination of phosphors which help to read of the compass in the dark.

Base plate compass or Orienteering compass - is a liquid filled compass placed on the rectangular base made of transparent plastic so a map can be read through it. It often has a magnifying lens for map reading, some sort of light for low light conditions and a ruler. It is often used for plotting.
