The correct answer is Mountains. Mountains can alter wind flow and create a rain shadow effect. A mountain is a large landform and is high surrounding a limited area. It is generally steeper and higher than a hill.

Answer: Mountains can alter wind flow and create a rain shadow effect.

Explanation:

Rain shadow effects :An area having less precipitation of less rain fall due to the effect of the topographic (physical features of that area ) barriers( to prevent the movement) like mountain or mountains range.

Sides of mountain:

Windward side: Area or side where high rainfall occurs. Wind prevailing loose their moisture on this side which leads to high rainfall on this side.

Leeward side : Area or side where low rainfall occurs.

What must the charge (sign and magnitude) of a particle of mass 1.41 gg be for it to remain stationary when placed in a downward

Yuri [45]

Answer:

$q = 2.067 \times 10^{-5}\ C$

Explanation:

Given,

mass = 1.41 g = 0.00141 Kg

Electric field,E = 670 N/C.

We know,

Force in charge due to Electric field.

F = E q

And also we know

F = m g

Equating both the equation of motion

m g = E q

$q =\dfrac{mg}{E}$

$q =\dfrac{0.00141 \times 9.81}{670}$

$q = 2.067 \times 10^{-5}\ C$

Charge of the particle is equal to $q = 2.067 \times 10^{-5}\ C$

PLEASE HELP 15 POINTSexplain properties and importance of light and how it separates into colors

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

It is not a property of light. It is your eyes and brain.

Specifically, the three kinds of cone cells in our eye that are sensitive to different ranges of the electromagnetic spectrum. The fact that there are three means that color is three dimensional, and is the reason the pure colors form a circle even though the spectrum of wavelengths is linear.

Visible light is part of the electromagnetic spectrum; light waves of different frequencies and wavelengths are distinguished as colors by the human eye. A prism can separate the colors of white light (dispersion) because different frequencies of light have different refractive indices for a given material.

Explain the statement: “Cells are the basic units of structure and function in living things.”

babymother [125]

All living things are made up of cells. Each cell's individual function helps the organism collectively function. They are the most basic as they can be self-contained. And there is no other particle smaller that can function on it's own.
