Answer:
- Barrier islands tend to experience significant erosion and deposition of sand. Mitigating these effects is extremely difficult and costly. Your friend would be wise to reconsider.
- A home on a barrier island is likely to take the full brunt of storm waves, making it a risky proposition. Your friend should think twice before purchasing.
Explanation:
The barrier islands are very beautiful and attractive in general. They are desirable tourist attractions because they have nice climate and beautiful sandy beaches. Some people also want to purchase them, thus buy and own them, making a house on them. That is actually not a good idea at all. These islands usually cost a lot because of their attractive location, but not just that, they cost even more when it comes to maintaining them and keeping the island in good condition for living. The reason for that is that these islands experience severe erosion, as well as deposition, constantly causing changes to them. Another problem is that these islands are the natural barrier between the coastline and the storms from the sea, so they are the ones that experience the biggest impact of the storms, and the big waves can even totally submerge them as they have very low elevation.
Kepler's first law means that planets move around the Sun in elliptical orbits.
The only place on earth that has a latitude and longitude of 0 degrees is in the Gulf of Guinea of the Atlantic Ocean. It is the place where the equator having zero degree latitude intersects with the prime meridian having zero degree longitude. It does not have any special significance at all. This place is located about 670 miles west of the country Gabon and 380 miles south of the country Ghana. While the equator can be considered as having significance because the sun gets directly overhead during the months of March and September equinoxes but the prime meridian is just an imaginary line.
The correct answer is - No.
Even though Mars in many ways can be seen as a planet similar to the Earth, it is still a planet that is very different and doesn't have the right conditions for human existence on it.
For the time being, Mars is a planet where there's frozen water, constant dust devils, raging storms, infertile soil cover with big layer of dust, thin atmosphere, large radiation, which are all indicators that at the present, human life is not possible there.
On the other hand, with the development of the technology on our planet, maybe in the future the scientists will find a way as to how to make the ''Red Planet'' habitable, as there are few predispositions that may allow for future life to develop on it.
