pebbles are sediments that range in size from 0.2 cm to 6.4 cm.
Sediments accumulate in the Atlantic at approximately 1 cm kyr-1 How thick are the sediments approximately 500 km from the ridge crest when the spreading rate is 2.5cm yr-1?
500 km = 50 x 106 cm.50 x 106 cm / 2.5 cmyr-1 = 20 x 106 years or twenty million years.If it takes 1000 years to form 1 cm of sediment, then the thickness of the sediment in cm is:20x106 / 1x103Thickness of sediment = 20,000 cm or 200m.
