Question 2: Provide an explanation for the displacements in (1).

Open Google EarthTM (or Earth Pro desktop version). In the search box at the top, put the coordinates. Use coordinates given in degrees, minutes and seconds, for example 52° 01′ 30″ N, 00° 42′ 37″ W, but remember not to include the symbols (°, ′ or ″) when entering the search term. You'll see a pin show up at your coordinates. In this example it should locate The Open University at Milton Keynes.

Question 3: Use Google EarthTM (or Earth Pro desktop version) to find the location 3° 3′ 52.78″ S, 37° 21′ 30.05″

In which country does the location pin fall? What type of landform is to be found at this location? (A landform is a naturally formed feature of the Earth's surface.)

You should be able to see snow around the location 3° 3′ 52.78″ S, 37° 21′ 30.05″

Question 4: Explain why snow is present here, even though average temperatures on the nearest coast are typically 28 °C.
