‘Evaluate how plate tectonics theory helps our understanding of the distribution of seismic and volcanic events’ In 1912‚ Alfred Wegener published his theory that a single super continent named Pangaea once existed about 300 million years ago. He proposed that Pangaea then later split into two continents of Laurasia in the north and Gondwanaland in the south and that today’s continents were the result of further splitting of these two land masses. Where the plates split are known as plate boundaries

Year 11 Module 1 – The Chemical Earth The Earth is made up of a large number of different substances: elements‚ compounds & mixtures We can classify elements & compounds as pure substances. These are always HOMOGENEOUS. Mixtures are not pure substances and can be either homogeneous or HETEROGENEOUS. Pure substances have a fixed composition eg copper metal‚ sulfur‚ carbon dioxide (CO2)‚ methane (CH4). Mixtures have variable composition and can also be separated into its components relatively

Electric Power Company (TEPCO).[3] The plant suffered major damage from the 9.0 earthquake and subsequent tsunami that hit Japan on March 11‚ 2011 and‚ as of December 2012‚ is not expected to reopen. The earthquake and tsunami disabled the reactor cooling systems‚ leading to releases of radioactivity and triggering a 30 km evacuation zone surrounding the plant. On April 20‚ 2011‚ the Japanese authorities declared the 20 km evacuation zone a no-go area which may only be entered under government supervision

However first it must be removed from the reactor then moved to cooling cells. The time that the rods sit in the cooling cells varies between a couple of months to a couple of years. Depending on the amount of heat and radiation they are emitting. The more dangerous waste will be returned to normal in about 50-100 years. However “some people
