<u>Answer:</u>

<em>A wide range of waves, including tidal waves, have a wavelength, a wave tallness, a plentifulness, a recurrence or period, and a speed. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Wavelength is described as the partition between two undefined spotlights on a wave (for instance between wave pinnacles or wave troughs).  

Standard ocean waves have wavelengths of around 100 meters.  

<em>Waves have any more extended wavelengths, for the most part, evaluated in kilometers and as much as 200 kilometers.</em>

Answer:

  • 1. It can be triggered by tectonic plate movement.   -    <u>both</u>
  • 2. The name means "harbor wave."   -    <u>tsunamis</u>
  • 3. It’s movement of land triggered by gravity.   -    <u> mass wasting</u>
  • 4. Creep and topple are names for two types of this hazard.   -  <u>mass wasting</u>
  • 5. Scientists use deep ocean assessment and reporting (DART) to warn of this hazard.  -  <u>tsunamis</u>
  • 6. One example is mud flowing down a hill and onto a highway.    
  • <u>mass wasting</u>

Explanation:

  • The characteristics of the tsunamis are related to those associated with the shaking of the ground that is produced by the movement of the tectonic plates from below as in the event of the earthquakes and thus the sudden release of the violent energy create huge killer waves and they can also lead to the mass wasting phenomenon.
  • <u>Hence the process of mass wasting occurs due to the movement of the layers of them is under the flow of the gravity and is a hazard that is associated with the earthquakes.</u>

The image shows a hydrothermal vent what would geologists expect to find around this vent?
shusha [124]
Hydrothermal Vents occur along divergent plate boundaries on the ocean floor. Hydrothermal vent systems give off plumes of hot, mineral-laden water with temperatures as high as 350 degrees Celcius. The water is ejected through a spout known as black smokers. Metal-rich minerals precipitate out of the circling sea water and forms ores of copper, zinc and iron.

Adam, who is 5'6" tall, notices his shadow on the sidewalk. If the angle of elevation from the tip of the shadow to the sun is 6
german
<h2>Answer:</h2>

This problem can be solved using trigonomtry, assuming that the figure formed by Adam's shadow and Adam himself is a Right Triangle (as shown in the figure attached).


According to this,  the distance from the tip of the shadow to the top of Adam's head is the hypotenuse H of the triangle, and we already know Adam's height and the angle of elevation. So, the trigonometric function that best works in this case is sine:


sen(angle)=\frac{Oppositeleg}{hypotenuse}  


Where the opposite leg is the side of the triangle that is opposite to the 60\º angle.

In this especific case:


sen(60\º)=\frac{5.6feet}{H}     (1)


In order to know the value of the hypotenuse we have to find  H from equation (1):

H=\frac{5.6feet}{sen(60\º)}



H=6.4663 feet



Rounding:

H=6.46 feet>>>>>This is the distance from the tip of the shadow to the top of Adam's head
