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.

To solve this exercise it is necessary to take into account the concepts related to Tensile Strength and Shear Strenght.

In Materials Mechanics, generally the bodies under certain loads are subject to both Tensile and shear strenghts.

By definition we know that the tensile strength is defined as

$\sigma = \frac{F}{A}$

Where,

$\sigma =$ Tensile strength

F = Tensile Force

A = Cross-sectional Area

In the other hand we have that the shear strength is defined as

$\sigma_y = \frac{F_y}{A}$

where,

$\sigma_y =$ Shear strength

$F_y =$ Shear Force

$A_0 =$ Parallel Area

PART A) Replacing with our values in the equation of tensile strenght, then

$311*10^6 = \frac{F}{(15*10^{-6})(30*10^{-2})}$

Resolving for F,

$F= 1399.5N$

PART B) We need here to apply the shear strength equation, then

$\sigma_y = \frac{F_y}{A}$

$210*10^6 = \frac{F_y}{15*10^{-6}30*10^{-2}}$

$F_y = 945N$

In such a way that the material is more resistant to tensile strength than shear force.

Which would be the best metal to use for the insulated wire?

katrin2010 [14]

Copper, because it has the lowest specific electrical resistance.

specific electrical resistance aka volume resistivity is a fundamental property of a material that quantifies how strongly that material opposes the flow of electric current. A low resistivity indicates a material that readily allows the flow of electric current.

Identify where the solid would be found after distillation is complete.

dimaraw [331]

Bottom of the distillation flask

Explanation:

The solid in the mixture to be separate would be found at the bottom of the distillation flask.

Distillation is a separation technique for differentiating the components of mixtures based on the differences in their boiling points.

Distillation is used to recover solvents from solution.
The solutes are then left behind in the flask as the solvent boils out as vapor.
The solution is boiled in a distillation flask to vaporize the solvent.
The vapor is made to condense back into liquid by means of a condenser.
The pure liquid called distillate is collected in the receiver.
The solute which is the solid remains in the distillation flask
