The bulk of the world's deserts are located at 30 degrees north latitude and 30 degrees south latitude, when the warm equatorial air begins to descend. The heavy, warm, descending air vaporises large amounts of water from the ground's surface. As a result, the environment is rather dry.

<h3>Why are the majority of the desert regions on Earth located between 20 and 30 degrees latitude?</h3>

The zones of falling air are those between 20 and 30 latitudes on the western borders of continents (high pressure and dry weather). As a result, the moisture continues to decrease as the air is compressed and warmed as it falls.

Where the scorching equatorial air starts to descend, the majority of the world's deserts are found between 30 degrees north and 30 degrees south latitude. Large volumes of water are vaporised off the surface of the ground by the thick, warming, falling air. As a result, the climate is extremely dry.

4. Una cuerda de acero de piano mide 1.60 m de longitud y 0.20 cm de diámetro. ¿Cuál es la tensión en la cuerda si se estira 0.2
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

1030.83\ \text{N}

Explanation:

\Delta L = Cambio en la longitud de la cuerda = 0.25 cm

T = tensión en cuerda

A = Área de la cadena = \dfrac{\pi}{4}d^2

d = Diámetro de la cuerda = 0.2 cm

L = Longitud original de la cuerda = 1.6 m

El cambio de longitud de una cuerda viene dado por

\Delta L=\dfrac{TL}{AE}\\\Rightarrow T=\dfrac{\Delta LAE}{L}\\\Rightarrow T=\dfrac{0.25\times 10^{-2}\times \dfrac{\pi}{4}(0.2\times 10^{-2})^2\times 210\times 10^9}{1.6}\\\Rightarrow T=1030.84\ \text{N}

La tensión en la cuerda es 1030.84\ \text{N}.

Which statement is true about crystal lattice energy?
irinina [24]

The answer is:

It is a measure of the strength of the bonds between ions.

Lattice energy is an estimate of the strength of the bonds formed by ionic compounds.

The first two choices are wrong because it is actually the opposite.

  • As the ion size increases, lattice energy <u>decreases</u>.
  • As charge of ions increases, lattice energy <u>increases</u>

As for the other third option, it is wrong because lattice energy is the energy RELEASED not absorbed.
