The theory proposing that oceanic ridges are formed by currents of deep-seated magma rising up from the mantle (often during volcanic eruptions), creating a new crust on the ridges is known as weathering plate tectonics continental-continental movement volcanism
Calculate the force of gravity on the 1.2kg mass if it were 6.4•10^6m above earths surface (that is, if it were two earth radii from earths center).
a woman whose normal weight on earths surface is 110.0 lbs (=489.5N), is standing on a bathroom scale in an elevator, the reading on the scale is 130 lbs, what is the magnitude of its acceleration?
The currents of the major oceanic gyre systems are driven by drag of surface winds that are part of the major anticyclonic pressure and wind systems over the ocean basins. volcanic activity on the ocean floor. jet streams and Rossby Waves in the upper atmosphere. tropical Storm activity.
As a body is projected to a high altitude above the earths surface, the variation of the acceleration of gravity with respect to alitude y must be taken into account. Neglecting air resistance, this acceleration is determined from the formula a -go R2 /(R + ν , where g.-9.81 m/s 2 e constant gravita or al acceleration at se a la e R-E 56 m s e radius of he earth and the positive d rection is measured upward.

Under normal atmospheric conditions, there exists a weak electric field near the earths surface, pointing vertically downward, whose value is 150 N/C. Find the necessary charge on a 2.70 gram ping-pong ball so that the ball could "levitate' in this field. In other words, the upward electrical force would just balance the downward gravitational force. Would the acquired charge need to be positive or negative?

the air force Thunderbirds aerail demonstration team is performing at an air show located on Earths magnetic equator.In what directions can tue airplanes fly so that there is no charge separation on their metal surface?
What happens in oceanic areas associated with horse latitude deserts that might not be similar to the effect of rain shadow deserts?
Rotational Motion Question: How large must the force be to stop the
earths rotation?
3) Imagine some super-being exerts a force of magnitude F at Earth's equator tangent to the surface for an entire year. How large must the force be to stop the Earth's rotation? State any assumptions you make.
