Pick one of the above, AND EXPLAIN YOUR ANSWER.<\/li>\n\n
How does the boiling temperature of water change with pressure? In other words, does high pressure result in a higher or lower boiling point?<\/li>\n
At the end of this video, hit pause, and notice that Yellowstone Hot spot eruptions go back to about 16 million years ago. Using the map provided (and the rough approximate scale bar), calculate a plate velocity for the North American Plate, moving over the Yellowstone Hot Spot.
First, figure out how many kilometers the hot spot moved in 16 million years\n
Give the plate velocity\u2026
1st– in kilometers per year
and then
2nd — in centimeters per year (FYI–there are 100,000 centimeters in one kilometer).<\/li>\n
a) gravity; b) convection in underlying asthenosphere; c) tidal energy; d) increased density as plate descends<\/p><\/p>\n \n\"Looking for a Similar Assignment? Order now and Get 10% Discount! Use Code \"Newclient\"<\/h5>\n<\/a>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
