Pacific Plate and the North American Plate. At this boundary the plates are moving past one another creating a transform boundary. These plates move past each other about fifty millimeters (two inches) per year. The San Andreas Fault, San Jacinto, Elsinore, and Imperial faults are all results of this boundary type, and pose great risks of natural hazards in and near the city of Los Angeles. Aside from the probable risks, the overall climate in Los Angeles in my opinion is decent. In the year of 2016

I will share some historical disasters associated with past earthquakes and discuss potential of future earthquake events. Descriptions of hazards associated with earthquakes in Los Angeles Earthquakes occurs and it occurs where there are tectonic plates or fault lines. The main earthquake hazard is the effect of ground shaking. The ground shaking can create

October 17, 1989 to see the giants try to bounce back against Oakland at Candlestick Park wasn’t the only match to be done that evening. Eighteen kilometers beneath the ground another contest was also beginning in an arena known as the San Andreas Fault. Here two enormous plates of the earth’s crust had been locked in a planetary pushing match since the great San Francisco earthquake of 1906. These players were tiring, reaching the breaking point. Their game was in its last inning. As the fans

residents know that I lies along the San Andrea’s fault, where the pacific moves north westwards past the North American plate. The two move in the same direction but the pacific plate moves more quickly, this creates friction. This is called a conservative plate boundary. The San Andreas Fault is the fault line between them. It runs along the Californian coast from Los Angeles north to San Francisco. Other fault lines run parallel to the major fault; San Francisco is built over two of them. The

Unit 7: Trees - Assignment Part I. Basic Computations 1. Using the following tree, name two vertices that are considered the following. Explain in your own words how you know: (a) parent-child (2 points). Answer: 202 - 401 Explanation: the parent of a vertex is the vertex connected to it on the path to the root, 202 is the parent and 401 is the child (b) sibling nodes (2 points): Answer: 301, 302, 303 Explanation: If two vertices are children of the same parent, then these

C4.5 constructs a classifier in the form of a decision tree. In order to do this, C4.5 is given a set of data representing things that are already classified. Wait, what’s a classifier? A classifier is a tool in data mining that takes a bunch of data representing things we want to classify and attempts to
