movement along the san andreas fault in this are is by fits and starts the last large earthquake here in 1857 was the result of 9.5 m of instantaneous slip. the average slip rate of the fault can be determined for two periods in the wallace creek area, because two channels of wallace creek are displaced by the fault and the time when the channels first formed is known. calculate the two slip rates by measuring the offset across the fault for both channels

Geologists use  seismic waves to  locate an earthquake's epicenter.. 

Mantle convection is the process that drives plate tectonics. the theory of plate tectonics states that the crust is divided into plates that float on the semi molten mantle below. the circular motion of the magma as it slowly rises and falls or move though convection cells drags the plates along causing them to move. the heat source in the lamp would represent the earth's core. the core is the source of energy that drives convection in the mantle. the lava represents molten magma under the earth's surface. if the lava lamp had floating pieces they would move as the circular motion of the lava in the lamp as it rises and falls would move them along the surface. these floating pieces would represent pieces of the earth's crust. 

May consider a group  g=({0,1},+)g=({0,1},+)where  ++  will work as the xor operator like we work in boolean algebra. note here, that ‘00’ and ‘11’ are not the usual 0 and 1 that we work with everyday. the elements are  called  ‘00’ and ‘11’ and  may not mean  zero (nothing) and one (single). ‘00’ is the identity for the given binary operator +, meaning that any element operated with ‘00’ gets us that element itself.  for a set  ss  in  g′g′  having more elements than just  {0,1}{0,1}  the values for  a+b∈sa+b∈s, such that  a∈s,b∈sa∈s,b∈s, have to be first defined, only then can you determine the value of  1+11+1. the answer could possibly have been  22  if oanswer is25,000
