What type of fault is hanging?
GeologyAsked by: Mike Bruce Reverse dip-slip faults result from horizontal compressional forces caused by a shortening, or contraction, of Earth’s crust. The hanging wall moves up and over the footwall. Thrust faults are reverse faults that dip less than 45°. What kind of fault is a hanging wall? normal fault There are four types of
What causes a tsunami step by step?
GeologyAsked by: Atl Santiago Tsunamis are caused by violent seafloor movement associated with earthquakes, landslides, lava entering the sea, seamount collapse, or meteorite impact. The most common cause is earthquakes. See the percentages on the right for the geological events that cause tsunamis. How are tsunamis caused step by step? A tsunami is a series
What causes volcanoes to erupt?
Geology questionsAsked by: Sabrina Stepanova The melted rock, or magma, is lighter than the surrounding rock and rises up. This magma collects in magma chambers, but it is still miles below the surface. When enough magma builds up in the magma chamber, it forces its way up to the surface and erupts, often causing volcanic eruptions.
What are the two main geological processes?
Geology questionsAsked by: Michelle Garcia Geologic Processes Weathering – responsible for landslides, subsidence. Erosion – responsible for landslides, subsidence, flooding. What are the major geological processes? The four major geological processes are impact cratering, volcanism, tectonics, and erosion. Earth has experienced many impacts, but most craters have been erased by other processes. We owe the existence
What number on the hardness scale is hematite?
Geology questionsAsked by: Kayla Hartman 5 to 6.5 Alphabetical Mineral Mohs Hardness Hematite 5 to 6.5 Hornblende 5 to 6 Ilmenite 5 to 6 Where is hematite on the hardness scale? about 1 to 6 Hematite ranges in hardness from soft to moderately hard (about 1 to 6 on the Mohs Hardness Scale). Regardless of a
Is partial solar eclipse dangerous?
Space and AstronomyIt is extremely dangerous to look directly at the sun even during a solar eclipse. You should never attempt to observe a total, partial or annular eclipse with the naked eye. The safest technique for viewing a solar eclipse is indirect viewing. What happens if you look at a partial solar eclipse? But if you
Why is the maximum magnification of a light microscope 1500x?
Space and AstronomyOptical microscopes are limited to ~1500x magnification because resolving the smallest visible details is limited to Rayleigh criterion (i.e. limited to diffraction). Where λ is wavelength in nm and NA is numerical aperture of the lens. Why is 1000x the maximum magnification for a light microscope? The maximum magnification power of optical microscopes is typically
Can you have a horizontal and slant asymptote?
Space and AstronomyA graph can have both a vertical and a slant asymptote, but it CANNOT have both a horizontal and slant asymptote. You draw a slant asymptote on the graph by putting a dashed horizontal (left and right) line going through y = mx + b. Can a horizontal asymptote be slanted? A slant asymptote, just
In what direction is the directional derivative maximum?
Space and Astronomythe same direction∇ f ∇ f and the unit vector point in the same direction. What is the maximum directional derivative of a surface? Detailed Solution. Directional derivative: It gives the rate of change of scalar point function in a particular direction. The maximum magnitude of the directional derivative is the magnitude of the gradient.
How do you calculate distance in C++?
Space and Astronomydistance = sqrt( (x2 – x1) * (x2 – x1) + (y2 – y1) * (y2 – y1) ); How do you find the distance from a C? Video quote: Okay so pythagoras theorem according to pythagoras theorem distance D is equal to square root of x2 minus x1 whole square plus y2. Minus y1
