let’s think about the triangulation method for locating earthquakes:

a. why in practice do the three circles in this method not match at exactly the same point? b. what is the solution? c. explain how epicentre locations can be precise but inaccurate. d. explain how epicentre locations can be accurate but imprecise

If you could drill a hole straight to the center of the earth, and keep track of what the hole is going through, youwould find: a) you would go through one sort of material, and then a different, denser material, and then a still-different, still-denser material, because the planet is made of concentric layers, sort of like an onion.b) you would go through one sort of material all the way to the center, because the planet is all mixed up.c) if your hole started at the north pole, you would go through different layers of different materials, but ifyour hole started at the equator, you would go through one sort of material all the way to the center.d) if your hole started at the equator, you would go through different layers of different materials, but if yourhole started at the north pole, you would go through one sort of material all the way to the center.e) you would strike diet pepsi when you got to the center.

Why might a single rock layer exhibit different types of sedimentary rocks within it? view available hint(s) why might a single rock layer exhibit different types of sedimentary rocks within it? such a rock layer, termed a facies, when traced laterally represents a variety of depositional environments that formed in a sequence over time. such a rock layer, termed a facies, when traced laterally represents a single depositional environment that formed over time. such a rock layer, termed a facies, when traced vertically represents a variety of depositional environments that formed at the same time across a broad area. such a rock layer, termed a facies, when traced laterally represents a variety of depositional environments that formed at the same time across a broad area. such a rock layer, termed a facies, when traced vertically represents a variety of depositional environments that formed in a sequence over time.

What is the latitude and longitude (to the nearest degree) of the following cities? a. kansas city b. philadelphia c. reno d. minneapolis use the map to find the names of cities with the following coordinates. a. 30°n, 96°w b. 35°n, 95°w c. 26°n, 80°w d. 42°n, 88°w how many kilometers north of the equator is washington, dc? approximately how far north of houston is kansas city? use degrees of latitude to calculate your answer. show your work. which city is closer to greenwich, england: los angeles or xi’an, china (34°n, 109°e)? explain your answer. how many degrees of longitude separate las vegas from the international date line, which is at 180° longitude?
