GWD17-36

Q35 to Q37:

(This passage was excerpted from material

published in 1996.)




When a large body strikes a planet



or moon, material is ejected, thereby


creating a hole in the planet and a local

Line
deficit of mass.
This deficit shows up


(5)
as a gravity anomaly:
the removal of

the material that has been ejected to

make the hole results in an area of

slightly lower gravity than surrounding

areas.
One would therefore expect that


(10)
all of the large multi-ring impact basins

on the surface of Earth’s Moon would

show such negative gravity anomalies,

since they are, essentially, large holes

in the lunar surface.
Yet data collected


(15)
in 1994 by the Clementine spacecraft

show that many of these lunar basins

have no anomalously low gravity and

some even have anomalously high

gravity.
Scientists speculate that early


(20)
in lunar history, when large impactors


struck the Moon’s surface, causing


millions of cubic kilometers of crustal

debris to be ejected, denser material

from the Moon’s mantle rose up


(25)
beneath the impactors almost imme-

diately, compensating for the ejected

material and thus leaving no low gravity

anomaly in the resulting basin.
Later,

however, as the Moon grew cooler


(30)
and less elastic, rebound from large

impactors would have been only partial

and incomplete.
Thus today such


gravitational compensation probably

would not occur:
the outer layer of

the Moon is too cold and stiff.

Q36:

The passage suggests that if the scientists mentioned in line 19 are correct in their speculations, the large multi-ring impact basins on the Moon with the most significant negative gravity anomalies probably

              

    A    were not formed early in the Moon’s history
    B     were not formed by the massive ejection of crustal debris
    C     are closely surrounded by other impact basins with anomalously low gravity
    D     were created by the impact of multiple large impactors

E     were formed when the Moon was relatively elastic

答案是A,我想问怎么推断和去非啊?有点晕!

Scientists
            speculate that early  in lunar history, when large impactors struck the Moon’s surface, causing millions of cubic kilometers of crustal debris to be ejected, denser material
from the Moon’s mantle rose up beneath the impactors almost immediately, compensating for the ejected material and thus leaving no low gravity anomaly in the resulting basin.

這句話在解釋會何沒有第九行說的那個現象
這裡要注意這個"early"
然後在第32行
Thus today such
gravitational compensation probably
would not occur:
        

所以在"today"不會有"compensatiion"
因此如果會有negative gravity  anomalies 就是發生在現在了

还是觉得不明白,能有人解释更清楚吗?为什么是were not formed early in the Moon’s history?

TOP

还是不是很理解

E为啥不对呢?

TOP

A可以理解了

但B呢?basin就是由于撞击产生碎片后形成的,如果月球的地幔物质可补偿那个basin的话,basin就不存在了。

楼主显然没看懂原文。

理论上:星球被撞——一部分物质被撞飞——出现凹坑——凹坑处重力小——月亮的环形山处重力小
实际上:环形山处重力没减少甚至更大
推测出:早期的月幔有强性——撞击加大密度——重力反而变大——后来月球变冷变硬——再受撞击就没这种变化

回头自己去文中定位。这里的compensating不是有物质去填埋,而是密度加大来补偿。撞击撞飞的是debris,没损失多少物质。
E显然和问题是相反的,仔细读题目,问的是重力变小的环形山。
