What are the characteristics of a tsunami? A tsunami is a large series of long wavelengths and period (time between crests) which can vary from a few minutes to over an hour. A Tsunami is a natural disaster and can be generated by any large, impulsive displacement of the sea level. An example of this is earthquakes with a magnitude of 6.5 or greater, landslides into or under the water surface, volcanic activity and meteorite impacts. Two tsunamis occur per year throughout the world which inflict…

Eggs are the most fragile thing you can find, one drop and they will break. What can we do to protect the egg from breaking when it falls? First, there are many factors that affect the egg when it falls. The factors are momentum, air resistance, pressure, gravity, and angular momentum. The first factor is Momentum; it is the product of the mass and velocity of an object. “P” is the 3D vector stating the object’s momentum in 3 directions of 3D space. Where “V” is the 3D velocity vector giving the…

Elysium Questions 1. What do you think about the above establishing shots of Los Angeles and Elysium? Extreme long shot is used for emphasis the environment of two different place. The Los Angeles in Earth where ever be the civilized town was shown in the ruin town. The extreme long shot gives the picture of devastation; pollution, disease, and homeless. On the other hand, the Elysium was shown in productive place. Elysium is the place for wealth people, there are high-technology building…

evidence are all good enough proof to accept this theory as true. Also, with this new information that Alfred Wegener failed to provide with his theory of why the continents move will complete the theory, making there no reason to deny this theory. Tectonic Plates have a large amount of scientific evidence proving that they are real and that they do move which explains why Pangaea eventually split into separate continents and why we find similar fossils on these…

Have you ever been in a bad Natural disaster? If not maybe you should try reading “Comprehending the Calamity” By Emma Burke and “Horrific Wreck of the City” By Fred Hewitt. They are both first hand eye witness accounts of the San Francisco earthquake and fire. The San Francisco earthquake was one of the biggest and most traumatizing events of all time. It all started April 18, 1906 at 5:15 AM. The first tremor lasted about 1 minute and others continued to strike through out the morning. Water…

prospect is characterized by recent summit felsic lava, caldera collapse, extrusions in the caldera bottom and widespread fumarolic activity, signifying thereby the existence of a shallow magma chamber (Tekelemariam and Beyene, 2005). Active tensional tectonics form fissures up to 2m near the volcanic complex. From the area ground water discharge to the system is guaranteed by the proximity of the area to the western escarpment. The outcome of an integrated interpretation of previous data…

2.2.3 Definition of Chelating Ligand EDTA From the above discussion, it can be concluded that chelating ligand EDTA is a process of reversible bond formation of a ligand that serves as chelating ( chelting agent or Chelator) that exist within the compound of EDTA. Basically, EDTA combines with some specific ion, so it causes the functions of EDTA as chelator. When the functions of EDTA as chelator, EDTA is a liquid ( solution) 2.3 Volcanic Ash Volcanic ash or sand is volcanic material debris…

In 79 CE, August, Mount Vesuvius had a significant eruption, that went on for nineteen hours, burying an ancient Roman city for seventeen centuries. This city was near the modern Naples within the Italian Region of Campania. The buildings and many of the people were buried and lost until the discovery made in 1738. This city is known as the lost city of Pompeii. Mount Vesuvius is a stratovolcano that consists alternate layers of ash and lava. Stratovolcanos have two types of eruption, one…

present day plate boundaries and similarities on multiple continents, It’s believed that the continents of Sciencia were once together as a supercontinent called Edisonia. The supercontinent held 6 of the 8 modern continents, which broke apart due to tectonic forces in the Lithosphere. Also, the 7th and 8th continents were believed to have formed from volcanic eruptions on convergent plate boundaries. The edges on the modern- day Sciencian continents have experienced weathering and erosion,…

earthquakes 7.0 magnitude or higher since 1973. Many people may wonder what causes such fatalities and it is the tectonic plates. The Earth’s crust and upper mantle, also known as the lithosphere are made up of seventeen pieces know as Tectonic plates. Because directly below the crust is a deep liquid layer underneath the crust is which results in the plates shifting around.The boundaries of a tectonic plate are either known as divergent boundaries(two plates moving away from each other) ,…
