Rocks collected on the coast of northern Greenland, at a latitude of 76.5 degrees North are brought into the paleomagnetic lab for study. You collect a number of samples and find that the magnetic field preserved within them varies slightly, but that the group has an average inclination of -75 degrees and a declination of 135 degrees. Geochemical dating show that all the rocks are 60 My old. 2) describe how these rocks have moved since forming (Be as specific...

Stresses at a point are: 60 MPa in the x-direction, 80 MPa in the y-direction and no shear stress in this reference x-y plane. Note that these are already the principal stresses and the reference plane x-y is the principal plane. What are the stresses at 45o clockwise from the principal planes? Show them on a properly-oriented element. Mohr’c cirle is to be used and no equations will be accepted.
