Chapter 3.1, Problem 1A
Obtain a stereoscope from your instructor, unfold it, and center it over the line that separates the two serial photographs of the volcanic core in figure 7.2. Use this stereogram to complete the following.
Figure 7.2 Stereogram of Mt. Capulin, a volcanic cinder cone located in northeastern New Mexico. The stereogram consists of two overlapping aerial photographs taken from an altitude of approximately 4800 meters (16,000 feet). To view the three-dimensional image of the volcano, center a stereoscope over the line that separates the two photographs. Then, while looking through the stereoscope, adjust the stereoscope until the image appears in three dimensions. The inset photo shows a traditional ground-level view of Mt. Capulin.
Identify and label the crater at the summit of the volcano.

a. Draw four sedimentary layers of equal thickness that have a strike of N90°E. (Hint: Sketch the map view first.)b. Each layer is dipping to the south at an angle of 60°.c. On the block diagram complete the map view and both cross-sectional views.d. Add strike-dip symbols for each rock layer on both parts of Figure 6.9.
There is an old axiom (a self-evident or universally recognized truth) of economics that “There is no such thing as a free lunch”. In the United States, stringent, enforced water quality laws and regulations provide a high level of protection of our waters. This is accomplished at a significant cost. For example, (sewage treatment plants use 2% of the electricity produced in the United States. This high level of protection increases the cost of goods manufactured in the United States compared to other nations such as China where standards are lower, enforcement a bit lax and in some cases, non-existent.
What five (5) things could be done to “level the playing field” so that all manufacturers must provide the same degree of water quality protection no matter where in the world they are located? include how each of your ideas will be implemented (ex: which organization will be provided the power and resources to make sure each idea happens). These should be only about water pollution,…

- Connecticut is the only state in America where treated industrial and municipal wastewater cannot be discharged to a surface water body used downstream as a source of drinking water. It is legal in all 49 other states.
