Answer: Rana can explain what happens for it to become meteors and meteorites

Explanation:

They’re all related to the flashes of light called shooting stars sometimes seen streaking across the sky. But we call the same object by different names, depending on where it is. When a meteoroid survives a trip through the atmosphere and hits the ground, it’s called a meteorite. When meteoroids enter Earth’s atmosphere (or that of another planet, like Mars at high speed and burn up, the fireballs or “shooting stars” are called meteors. (Actually Wrote On a Old essay By Me)

Tju [1.3M]
The sides of the smaller window is 20 inches long.

An equation that represents this situation is shown below, where s is the length of the smaller window
1,025 = (5 + s)^2 + s^2

if s = 20 m, then:
(5 + 20)^2 + 20^2
= 625 + 400
= 1,025

ASAP PLEASE HELP: What is convection and how does it contribute to making Death Valley so hot?
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Death Valley’s crazy heats are caused by a combination of the lack of water, geography, and materials that make up the valley.

The average yearly rainfall in Death Valley is only 2 inches. This is less than many other deserts in the world, averaging around 10 inches of rain annually. This intense lack of water also creates a lack of plants in the area resulting in the expanses of sand in the valley open to constant heating by the sun.

Sea level in Death Valley

Driving into the valley you get to experience the geography of the environment, traveling from 1000 feet to 4000 feet above sea level and down to 100 feet below sea level. These mountain ranges you drive over top 4000 feet and surround the lowest point in the United States of 282 feet below sea level. This creates an interesting phenomenon of trapping the hot air within the valley.

Sand and rocks make up the valley floor which radiate a large amount of heat. However, because of the geography, this hot air cannot escape. Instead, the hot air rises along the valley walls, cools slightly and then falls back to the valley floor to be heated even more by the hot sand and low elevation air pressure. This concept of movement by heating and cooling is called convection and exists in many other life circumstances like the boiling of water or in a kitchen oven. Despite the movement of air and possibility of high winds, the winds do not do much to cool down the hikers in the valley because the wind is still very hot.

The heat can be so extreme that signs in the park advise turning off the air conditioning in certain areas to avoid overheating of cars, making the experience an even toastier one. Additionally, hiking is recommended only before 10am and with lots of water.

Despite the heat it is worth braving the heat to experience the truly unique views of Death Valley. This unique environment allows for rock formations, salt flats and expanses unlike anything else in the United States.

Lesson 16 solve problems with equations answer key
iren [92.7K]

Based on the calculations, the value of x and y in this equation are both equal to 5.

<h3>What is a system of linear equations?</h3>

A system of linear equations can be defined as an algebraic equation of the first order that has two (2) variables with each of its term having an exponent of one (1).

<u>Given the following data:</u>

x + y = 10  .....equation 1.

x = 5.       .....equation 2.

<h3>How to evaluate an equation.</h3>

In order to evaluate the given mathematical equation, we would substitute equation 2 into equation 1 as follows:

5+y=10\\\\y=10-5

y = 5.
