Maui is going to help Moana return the heart of Te Fiti to save her people. The Te Feti is the heart of a goddess that was stolen from Maui and with that heart, the goddess has the power to create life. Without the heart, she is a demon of fire and magma. After returning the heart with the help of Maui, Moana then goes back to her village where the vegetation is better and she reunites with her people and most importantly her parents. Lastly, she is now chief of her village.…

To begin there is one piece of crucial information that being;What is is a Fault line? A fault line is a crack in the Earth's crust in which pressure is created in the form of friction, once the rocks break under the pressure a jolt of energy released is and resulting earthquake occurs. Energy released from these geologic phenomenon are measured in a machine called a Richter Scale. The Richter Scale measures seismic waves through the ground after the initial shock in the epicenter of the…

Zoe Starr Mr. Eric Smith Astronomy H 22 May 2018 Jupiter and its Galilean Moons Jupiter, the fifth planet from our sun, is the most massive planet in our solar system, twice as massive as all the other planets comined. It is a gas giant planet and therefore lacks a earth like surface. Due to the giant atmosphere of gas, Jupiter rotates faster than any other planet. Jupiter’s day is only about ten hours long. Jupiter takes twelve Earth years to make one revolution around the sun so, one…

There are over 1500 volcanoes in the world and over 1,500 potentially active volcanoes in the world. In 2018, the Hawaiian volcano Kilauea erupt after a series of earthquakes damaged the interior of the volcano. After only four weeks of lava flow and an area of 5.5 square miles covered there has been tens of thousands of people evacuated and more than 80 homes destroyed as well as other infrastructures. Hundreds were left stranded, cut off by lava flows with no power, working water and…

Australia’s natural environment is NOT unique. This is a statement to which I determinedly accept may be not correct. Australia has numerous extraordinary elements which different nations do not possess. Australia deserves to be known as one of the most biologically diverse countries on the planet. It is home to more than one million classifications of plants and creatures, a considerable lot of which are discovered no place else on the planet, remarkable and impressively unique landforms and…

GEOTHERMAL ENERGY 1.1 INTRODUCTION AND DEFINITION Geothermal energy is the utilization of heat present in the deep earth for the purpose of power generation or other direct use application. In general terms, geothermal energy consists of the thermal energy present in the Earth’s crust. Thermal energy in the earth is distributed between the constituent host rock and the natural fluid that is contained in its fractures and pores at temperatures above ambient levels. Globally, the most commonly…

Subduction is the process in which the oceanic plate is pushed and forced toward the mantle of the Earth. As the oceanic plate subducts, the plate increases in temperature. After going as deep as one hundred miles, the plate then begins to melt. Magma chambers form as a result of the subduction, and over periods of…

LRO (Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter), a satellite that was launched to the moon in 2009, scientists have determined that the moon is has contracted slightly. During its formation, the moon’s crust was supported by pockets of hot, pressurized air and magma,…

Climate Seasonal Temperatures Modoc Plateau features moderately extreme weather, with warm summers and cold winters. In the summers, average temperatures can reach 30°C (85°F) during the day and 8°C (47°F) during the night. On the other hand, winters have daytime temperatures of 5°C (42°F) and nighttime temperatures of -6°C (20°F). Temperatures in the Modoc Plateau are generally similar from region to region, with the exception of nearby mountains such as Mount Shasta. Precipitation Unlike…

Granite Granite is a volcanic igneous rock that is formed by the slow cooling of magma. While it is a suitable stone to build structures, nowadays granite is used almost only used as an interior or exterior covering. Advantages offered by granite are that it is stain resistant, it is a sanitary (Non-Porous) surface, it is heat resistant…
