Make my home greener?
ByFrageed
Hey guys, my parents are originally from central Turkey. If there's one difference I immediately notice between my home country in Turkey and Germany, it's that Germany seems significantly greener. It feels like there's a tree or bush on every corner here. In my home country of Turkey, it looks like a dry desert. Few…

You can stargaze there, either on your own or at the observatory, and hopefully you can even go swimming there. Is it worth a trip for that reason?
Are my calculations correct?

Hi 🙂 I need help with a physics problem. The task is: A voltage of 10V is applied to a plate capacitor with a plate spacing of 10cm. A proton is located directly in front of the positively charged plate. a) Calculate the electric field strength between the plates E= U/d = 10V/0.1m = 100…

How do I calculate that?

Yes, the Alps were formed by the impact of the African plate on the European plate, and the process is still ongoing, as we are currently witnessing in the tectonic activity in the subduction zone in Italy (Naples, Phlegraean Fields).
From a geological perspective, they were formed by folding and compression of rocks as a result of plate movement, not by the plate movement itself. As orographic mountain bodies, they were formed by uplift and erosion.
Yes, around 30 to 50 million years ago due to continental drift.
How do you come to the conclusion that this wasn't the case?
