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: <em>Mountains </em>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.

Limestone and dolomite are the rocks present in the locations which leads to the formation of caves.

<h2>Formation of caves</h2>

The type of rocks that once existed in these locations are limestone and dolomite whereas the pH of the nearby groundwater is slightly acidic which is responsible for the formation of caves. Caves are formed by the dissolution of limestone due to acid rain.

Rainwater reacts with carbon dioxide from the air and percolates through the soil, which turns into a weak acid. This slowly dissolves out the limestone which become turn to form caves so we can conclude that Limestone and dolomite are the rocks present in the locations which leads to the formation of caves.

A light year is defined as the distance that light can travel in 1 year. What is the value of 1 light year in meter? Show your c

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

d=9.462×10^15 meters

Explanation:

<u>Relation between distance, temps and velocity:</u>

d=v*t

t=1year*(365days/1year)*/(24hours/1day)*(3600s/1h)=31536000s

So:

1 light year=d=3*10^8m/s*3.154*10^7s=9.462×10^15 meters

A 5.93 kg ball is attached to the top of a vertical pole with a 2.35 m length of massless string. The ball is struck, causing it

Delvig [45]

Answer

given,

mass of ball = 5.93 kg

length of the string = 2.35 m

revolve with velocity of 4.75 m/s

acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

T cos θ = mg

T cos θ = $5.93\times 9.81$

T cos θ = 58.17

$T sin \theta =\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

$T sin \theta =\dfrac{5.93\times 4.75^2}{2.35 sin \theta}$

$T sin^2 \theta =56.93$

$sin^2 \theta = 1 - cos^2 \theta$

$T (1 - cos^2 \theta) =56.93$

$T (1 - (\dfrac{58.17}{T})^2) =56.93$

T² - 56.93T - 3383.75 = 0

T = 93.22 N

$cos \theta = \dfrac{58.17}{93.22}$

θ = 51.39°

If the marshmallows represent the atoms in the substance, which change of state is Freida modeling Freida wants to model the way

sashaice [31]

Answer: Melting

Explanation:

When Frieda made a pyramid of marshmallows, she was representing the atoms in a solid substance as the atoms are clumped together and unable to move.

When she then knocks it down, she is showing the movement of atoms in a liquid substance as they are now freer than they were before. The process by which substances go from solid to liquid is melting.
