What is the second largest plate?
At nearly 76 million square kilometers, the North American Plate is only behind the Pacific Plate in size.
Why are two seismic stations not enough?
Because you need three points to locate the source of a signal. Think of a station as the center point of a circle. The station can detect the seismic wave, and the wave's properties can tell you the distance (P and S wave measurement) but not the direction it came from. One station would give you a whole circle edge (circumference) to search for the wave's source, based on that distance (radius of the circle). But if you have a second station, you can measure the same wave there and get a second circle radius from that station. If you draw both of these circles on a map, with the stations at the circle centers, you will see that the two circles intersect at two points. This narrows the possible wave source to two places. But if you have three stations, and draw a circle around that station based on the wave measurement, there will only be one point where all three circles intersect. That point is the source of the wave the stations detected.
What is your annual contribution of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the daily average concentration of carbon dioxide in Earth's atmosphere surpassed 400 parts per million for the first time in human history. The world emits 2.4 million pounds of CO2 per second.
At what speed do electromagnetic waves travel through space?
It travels at the "speed of light". In vacuum, that's 299,792,458 meters per second. In any kind of material substance, it's less. How much less depends on the individual substance ... they're all different.
What is electricity in the sky?
A giant spark that flashes across the sky. Each bolt zigzags through the air at many thousand of miles (kilometers) a second! Its electrical charge of about 100 million volts would be enough to light a small town for a whole year! The charge comes from tiny drops of water or ice that bump and rub within huge, towering cumulonimbus clouds. When the charge gets big enough, it creates the lightning. Bolts jump between the cloud and the ground or between two clouds.
How many feet in 8 million?
That would be 8 million feet in 8 million. As you didnt specify the second unit of measurement (8 million of what?), I would just presume its the same as the first unit of measurement you provided
What is the unit of measurement speed of processors?
MIPS:- Million Instruction per Second.
How fast is the sun making nuclear fusions?
Fast enough to convert 4 million tons of mass to energy, every second.Fast enough to convert 4 million tons of mass to energy, every second.Fast enough to convert 4 million tons of mass to energy, every second.Fast enough to convert 4 million tons of mass to energy, every second.
One tmc is equal how many liters per second?
A TMC is the acronym for Thousand Million Cubic Feet. This doesn't translate easily into liters per second because one is an area measurement and the other is a volume measurement.
What is the second most reactive metal?
The 2nd most reactive is Cesium after Francium. If you disregard Francium because it is radioactive, then it would be Rubidium after Cesium.
What is the measure of cycles per second in computer processing?
A 'Hertz' is a cycle of once a second. A megaHertz is a million cycles per second.
Does francium have any older names?
Yes, Francium has a couple older names. The first time it was discovered, it was called "eka-caesium." The second name was "moldavium."
All alkali metals except francium had been disconerd by 1860 why did it take scientists another 80 years to find francium?
Francium is the second rarest element on earth so that's probably why it took a little longer to discover.
Galileo's measurement in meters per second?
The measurement was 5000 metres per second
What are 3 unusual facts about francium?
Francium is the second rarest naturally occurring element on Earth. It is highly radioactive and has a very short half-life, making it difficult to study and isolate. Due to its extreme rarity and radioactivity, francium is primarily used for scientific research and has no practical applications.
How fast could you get around the world going 71 million cubic feet per second?
Well, cubic feet is a measurement of area, so if you take away cubic, going 71 million feet per second, the answer is about 2 seconds, if you went around the equator.
Why is francium less cared in chemistry?
Francium is often ignored because it is the second rarest element on the planet. Only about 30 grams of it exist in Earth's crust at any given time. Nobody has been able to have more than a few thousand francium atoms in one place. Francium is also has a very short half-life, 22 minutes. Meaning that if you have a sample of francium half of it will have decayed into other elements after 22 minutes.
