(a) Are all continental coastlines plate boundaries? Explain
(b) Label active continental margins with a red A on the following diagram, and passive margins with a blue Two have been identified to help you get started The Earth's major lithosphere plates Trench or - Ridge Transform Eurasian Plate Scotia Plate Plate Boundary Map of the South Atlantic Ocean floor and adjacent continents Now look in more detail at the east and west coasts of South America in the enlarged bathymetric and topographic map to the right.
(c) How far is the easternmost point in South America from the nearest plate boundary? What kind of boundary is it?
(d) How far is the westernmost point in South America from the nearest plate boundary? What kind of boundary is it? -
(e) Which coast of South America would you expect to have the most frequent earthquakes? Volcanic activity? Explain

Carbon is allowed to diffuse through a steel plate 15 mm thick. the concentrations of carbon at the two faces are 0.65 and 0.30 kg c/m^3 fe, which are maintained constant. if the preexponential and activation energy are 6.2 x 10-7 m2 /s and 80,000 j/mol, respectively, compute the temperature at which the diffusion flux is 1.43 x 10^-9 kg/m^2 -s.

This is a form of winter precipitation. it is frozen precipitation falling as ice pellets. snowflakes melt into raindrops as they pass through a thin layer of warmer air. the raindrops then refreeze into particles of ice when they fall into a layer of sub-freezing air near the surface of the earth. this precipitation is called a) hail. b) rain. c) sleet. d) snow.

Consider a small frictionless puck perched at the top of a fixed sphere of radius r. if the puck is given a tiny nudge so that it begins to slide down, through what vertical height will it descend before it leaves the surface of the sphere? [hint: use conservation of energy to find the puck's speed as a func e conservation of energy to find the puck's speed as a function of its height at what value of this normal force does the puck leave the sphere? ] here on the puck.
