The north american plate is moving west at a rate of approximately 20 mm/yr. how long will it take for new york to move 10° longitude west of its current position? (assume 110 km/°longitude at new york's latitude.)

55000000 years

Explanation:

Rate of North American Plate moving (Velocity) = 20 mm/yr

Degrees New York has to move = 10° west

New York's longitude = 110 km/°

Distance of New York = 110×10 = 1100 km

= 1100×10⁶ mm

∴ Time taken by New York to move 10° west is 55000000 years

as we probably am aware that our atmosphere or air have various levels, each level has different gasses, and each gas has another porousness. at the point when the light originates from lower porousness to higher penetrability, it alters its course. with the goal that implies that when the light originates from the moon to the earth, it alters it's course a lot more occasions. it essentially implies that the state of the light piece of the moon is changed on the earth.
