The nearest star to our solar system is Proxima Centauri and if we traveled at the speed of light we would get there after<u> 4.25 years. </u>

<h3>How long would it take to reach Proxima Centauri?</h3>

Proxima Centauri is the nearest star to our solar system and it is located around 40,208,000,000,000 km away.

If we were to travel to it at the speed of light, we would get there in:

= Distance to Proxima Centauri / Light travelling distance per year

= 40,208,000,000,000 / 9,460,730,474,334 km/ year

= 4.25 years

PLZZZZ HELP MEE <br>List AND briefly explain the Six Essential Elements of Geography.
IrinaVladis [17]

<u>Answer: </u>

  • <em>The world in spatial terms. </em>
  • <em>Places and regions. </em>
  • <em>Physical systems. </em>
  • <em>Human systems. </em>
  • <em>Environment and Society & Uses of geography.</em>

<u>Explanation</u>:

<u><em>The world in spatial terms</em></u><u><em>: </em></u>The world in spatial terms deals with where things are positioned in the world, including absolute and relative location. Places and regions study the physical and human features of the place being studied from climate to language to religion to government.

<u><em>Places and regions </em></u><u><em>:  </em></u>A place in space that is different from other spaces. Regions are areas defined by unifying physical and /or human characteristics. A region is a space that shares one or more qualities or characteristics & a basic unit of study in geography.    

<u><em>Physical systems:</em></u><em> </em>In physics, a physical system is a portion of the physical universe chosen for analysis. Everything outside the system is known as the environment. The environment is ignored except for its effects on the system.

<u><em>Human systems: </em></u>Movement is how things move from place to place. (This can  be movement of people, ideas and/or beliefs, and goods.)  and describes how people have shaped our world.

<u><em>Environment and Society:  </em></u>The Environment and Society specialization within the Geography major provides students with an understanding of the reciprocal relationships between social and environmental processes. Environmental geographers are concerned with how human beings use the earth and how humans impact the environments in which they live.

<u><em>Uses Of Geography: </em></u> The uses of geography is the study of the practical side of the subject. It concerns understanding how to apply geography to explain the past and help us make decisions today.

Why is it easier to predict where an earthquake epicenter will occur than it is to predict when it will occur?
AleksAgata [21]
Predicting where an earthquake epicenter will occur is easier because are patterns to look at due to the fact that they always occur near plate boundaries. Predicting when they will occur is difficult because they do not follow any certain pattern.
