  • a question about volcanoes!?

    Most igneous rocks never reach the surface. However, igneous rocks other than those formed in volcanoes are found exposed on many parts of Earth. How do you account for this phenomenon?

    a They formed at depth and have been exposed by uplift and erosion.

    b They are composed of lava flows.

    c They are the result of meteorite impact.

    d They formed at the surface and sank due to their greater density.

    e They have been glaciated.

  • a question about plate tectonics?

    As oceanic crust is subducted, it melts, forming a body of magma. When this magma rises and interacts with the overlying continental crust, what change occurs in the composition of the magma?

    The silica content of the magma increases.

    The composition of the magma causes the density to increase.

    The silica content of the magma decreases.

    The composition of the magma causes it to produce mostly dark-colored minerals.

    The composition of the magma causes it to produce only light-colored minerals.

  • A geology question please!?

    1. The magnetic inclination is measured for two rocks with different ages at a single location on a continent:

    (Assume that the rocks have always remained in the northern hemisphere)

    Magnetic inclination of 60° for 400 Ma rocks

    Magnetic inclination of 20° for 50 Ma rocks

    What direction did the continent move between 400 and 50 Ma? Assume that the continent with the two rocks has moved along a line of longitude

    a. Westward

    b. Eastward

    c. Southward

    d. Northward

    e. The continent has remained stationary between 400 and 50 Ma.

    and

    2.Assuming again that the continent with the two rocks has moved along a line of longitude, What was the average rate of motion between 400 Ma and 50 Ma?

    (Lines of latitude are spaced at ~111 km.) (Use mm/year.)

    a.0.15 mm/yr

    b. 9.5 mm/yr

  • A question about geology?

    Graphite and diamond are both minerals made of only carbon atoms. However, the carbon atoms are arranged differently in the two minerals because diamond forms deep within the Earth at high pressures, whereas graphite forms at lower pressure. If equal volumes of graphite and diamond are compared, which mineral would you expect to have more carbon atoms within this volume?

    Test the claim that the mean hospital stay after childbirth for this hospital is significantly longer than the national mean of 2.1 days.

    complete the hypothesis test. Find the p-value.

    A. 0.931

    B. 0.069

  • Help with a hard stat question please!?

    A new medication has been created to treat osteo-arthritis inflammation and pain. Doctors prescribing the drug claim that the drug is not as effective for women as men since women taking the medication have higher pain levels than men. The pharmaceutical company conducts a clinical trial with 52 women and 47 men having osteo-arthritis in order to determine if women taking the drug have higher pain levels than men. After treatment, the 52 women have a mean pain level of 5.6 with a standard deviation of 1.2 while the 47 men have a mean pain level of 4.8 with a standard deviation of 1.5. Higher pain level measures indicate more inflammation and pain. Test the claim that women have higher pain levels than men when taking this drug to treat osteo-arthritis.

    Use a 95% confidence interval for the mean difference between pain levels for women and for men.

    FInd the upper and lower bound.
