The formation of magma within earth is not caused by which of the following processes? a. decompression (drop in pressure) b. addition of volatiles c. transfer of heat from adjacent magma or very hot rocks d. loss of volatiles to the atmosphere

D. loss of volatiles to the atmosphere

Explanation:

The name magma designates matter in a semi-fluid state - resulting from the fusion of silicates containing dispersed solid gases and minerals and other compounds that make up the rocks, at temperatures between 700 and 1200 ° C - that forms the region beneath the crust. land. When it is inside the earth it is specifically named magma and lava when it is ejected to the surface

There are three systems by which magma can be produced on earth:

Temperature rise by concentration of radioactive elements or by friction of lithospheric plates.

Pressure decrease, since the melting point decreases.

Adding water A rock begins to melt earlier if it contains water because the –OH groups effectively break the Si-O bonds.

A rock is formed by a set of minerals, each of which has a characteristic melting point so a rock does not have a single melting point but a temperature range in which the rock melts into parts, leaving others solid parts. Between the point at which a solid rock begins to melt and the melting end (liquid point) the rock is partially molten.

The rise of magmas depends on their physical-chemical conditions (viscosity, density, volatile element content), on the tectonic peculiarities of the region where they are found and on the rocks to be traversed. Acid magmas are light and viscous, rise easily and cause large deposits. The basic magmas, of greater density, are less viscous and ascend with greater difficulty than the previous ones.

d₁ = displacement of tern from arctic to antarctic = 11000 miles

d₂ = displacement of tern from antarctic to arctic =   - 11000 miles

d = total displacement for the journey

total displacement for the journey is given as

d = d₁ + d₂

d = 11000 + (-11000)

d = 0 miles

t₁ = time of travel from arctic to antarctic = 3 months = 3 x 30 days = 90 days

t₂ = time of travel from antarctic to arctic = 3 months = 3 x 30 days = 90 days

t = total time of travel

total time of travel is given as

t = t₁ + t₂

t = 90 + 90

t = 180 days

average velocity is given as

average velocity = total displacement/ total time

v = d/t

v = 0/180

v = 0 miles/day
