Xi'an, China
34x60n.miles=2,040 nautical miles
109x60n.miles=6,540 nautical miles
2,040+6,540=8,580 nautical miles. (this one is closer)
Los Angeles, USA:
34x60n.miles=2,040 nautical miles
118x60n.miles=7,080 nautical miles
2,040+7,080=9,120 nautical miles. (this one is further)
the average story is 10 feet and the car is below ground so it would be negative. i assume the answer would be -20 feet
Most likely due to the movement of plate tectonics. They are plates of earth under the ocean that move occasionally, over the years this is probably what happened. Plate tectonics are also the cause of most earthquakes and even tsunamis. Erosion could also play a factor in this as well.
Answer:
Explanation:
At constructive margins such the mid oceanic ridge where new magma are brought to the surface, evidences abounds to support the theory of continental drift through paleomaganetism.
Continental drift is simply the moving of the land masses on earth from their original positions.
There are certain magnetic minerals in rocks that are able to record the prevailing magnetic conditions in a particular terrane. In a hot magma, at the oceanic ridge for example, these minerals align to the magnetic direction at work during the period when they are cooling. As new materials upwells, the cool layer shifts away from the margin each bearing the paleomagnetic record.
Therefore, through a series of reversals and normality in the magnetic direction, one can deduce that the continents actually moves.
