I think there is a mistake in the subject area. This has nothing to do with geography, but with physics. This topic is about the linear expansion of conductive materials when heated to a higher temperature. The equation for linear expansion is

ΔL = L0*α*ΔT, where
ΔL is the change in length when heated
L0 is the original length of the rod
α is the coefficient of linear expansion; this is an empirical data for a specific kind of material
ΔT is the change in temperature

Since ΔL is same for lead and quartz, we can equate them.

L0,lead*α,lead*ΔT = L0,quartz*α,quartz*ΔT

The α for lead is 29×10^6 °C/m while the α for quartz is 14×10^6 °C/m. Since ΔT are the same for both materials, ΔT will be cancelled out. Therefore, the equation for L0,quartz is:

L0,quartz = (L0,lead*α,lead)/α,quartz
L0,quartz = (0.10 m*29×10^6 °C/m)/14×10^6 °C/m
L0,quartz = 0.207 m

Alexandra [31]

The correct answer is - No.

Winnipeg, Canada, is not further away from the Equator than Moscow, Russia, in fact Moscow is the city that is further away from the Equator. Moscow is on a latitude of 55.7558° North, while Winnipeg is on a latitude of 49.8951° North, thus putting Moscow by 5.8607° further away from the Equator than Winnipeg is.

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

Option: D. It cooled very slowly.

Explanation:

Iceland is known as the Land of Fire.  The country is present in the plate boundary of the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates. Being on the top of the Ring of Fire, it has active volcanoes. Hexagonal basalt columns formed from a volcanic eruption. Basalt columns are the result of a cooling process that changes the appearance of the lava. Basalt is a volcanic rock rich in iron and magnesium created from the heated magma that emerges as lava during an eruption.

The photograph given below is from Icelandic national park Jokulsargljufur.

1. What is the approximate elevation of Wonderland Lake? Explain your reasoning.
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

Ans 1) The approximate elevation of wonderland lake is about 5500 feet, because it lies in the vicinity of the ridge where peak are having contour values upto 6600 feet and the wonderland lake lies on the lower contour of near about 5500 feet.

Ans 2) The peak elevation of poorman hill is 6485 feet as it can easily seen in the map that the highest contour value us 6485 feet. Poorman hill is lying in this contour value.

Ans 3) It is clearly seen and observed from the map that the elevation of the poorman hill is about 6485 feet where as the elevation of the boulder creek present at the south of poorman hill is less than 6000 feet. Thus poorman hill has higher elevation as compared to bank of boulder creek.
