When one side is facing the sun, the other is facing the darkness, so, when it's Winter in the northern half, it's Summer in the southern half. Does that make sense?

What was one effect of the Peloponnese war?
gregori [183]

Answer:

An effect of the Peloponnese war was that Macedonia invaded Greece.

Explanation:

The Peloponnese war was a war between Sparta and Athens, with Sparta coming out as a victor in it. The lack of political absence of Athens for some time in the region because of the engagement in the war with Sparta gave opportunity the Macedonians to be able to speed up their progress, implement reforms, and rapidly become a force to be reckoned with.

The Macedonians managed to reform their army and strengthen their economy, and for the Hellenic city-states, this was not a good sign. Phillip II of Macedon attacked the Hellenic city-states and defeated them all, causing a huge loss in military personnel. One city-state that saved itself was Sparta, and there are two reasons for it, one is that they were in good relations with the Macedonians and often allied, and the other because it was of interest to any of the two sides to go in war against each other and suffer losses unnecesarilly.

How did your prediction compared to the actual changes in sea level? What have you learned about sea level variations?
tatuchka [14]

1. My predictions about the changes in sea level have been relatively close to the actual rise of the sea waters, though it has been different than the general predictions of the numerous models of the countries. The predictions that I have made about the rise of the sea level have been based on the rate of melting of the polar ice, but also on the isostatic rebound that occurs because of it, and the influence that the greenhouse gasses have on the global temperature. The estimates that I made were showing a rise of only few centimeters, unlike the several meters predicted by most of the models. The closest model to what I have predicted is the Russian model, which is very different than the others.

2. The sea level variations are not very easy to predict, nor do they have any particular cycle that is repeating on approximately the same time. There are numerous factors that influence the variations of the sea level, such as the global temperature, with higher temperature meaning higher sea levels, and lower temperature meaning lower sea levels. The isostatic rebound of the continental land masses should also be taken in consideration, as the continents lift up when they don't have pressure on top of them from the ice, and sink down when they do have large ice masses on them, thus it can influence where the water can penetrate and where it can't. The position of the landmasses, composition of the atmosphere, as well as the geological activities, all have big influence on the variations of the sea levels, be it going up or down.

Difference between cloud and rain​
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

As the water vapor rises up in the air, it condenses, or starts to cool down and turns back into a liquid. Then, droplets of water start to stick together as clouds. When water drops fall from clouds, it is called rain. Sometimes the droplets freeze before they get to the ground and become hail, sleet, or snow
