Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

If Earth did not rotate then the side of Earth which is nearer to the Sun will be the warmest. As a result, there will be presence of more warm air.

This air will then rise and move towards the poles, that is, colder regions which are far away from Sun.

Thus, we can conclude that if earth did not rotate then air would rise and move toward the poles at the equator.

Heat rises, and it is warmer at the equator, so I think warm air would rise at the equator and move towards the cooler poles.

Nancy is sailing her boat toward Sam's boat at 5
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Nora's boat is moving towards Sam at 5 km/hr

Explanation:

The question says that Nora is few meters behind Nancy and is still with respect to her that means the relative velocity between Nora and Nancy is zero

Vrel = 5 - Vnora= 0 ⇒ Vnora = 5km/hr

Pictorially we can represent the given condition as:

Nora-------few meters------Nancy -----------------    Sam

5km/hr                                         5km/hr →

Hence,  Nora's boat is moving towards Sam at 5km/hr.

what causes sounds? A. electromagnectic energy B. the release of sensory neurons C.movement that causes changes in air placement
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

D.vibrations that cause changes in air pressure

Explanation:

Sound is a type of wave.

A wave is a periodic disturbance/oscillation that trasmits energy without transmitting matter. There are two different types of waves:

- Transverse waves: in a transverse wave, the direction of the oscillation is perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave. These waves are characterized by the presence of crests (points of maximum positive displacement) and troughs (points of maximum negative displacement). Examples of transverse wave are electromagnetic waves.

- Longitudinal waves: in a longitudinal wave, the direction of the oscillation is parallel to the direction of motion of the wave. These waves are characterized by the presence of compressions (regions where the density of particle is higher) and rarefactions (regions where the density of particle is lower). Examples of longitudinal waves are sound waves.

Sound waves, in particular, consist of vibrations of the particles in a medium - most commonly, air - that occur back and forth along the direction of motion of the wave. Because of these motion, the air will have areas of higher pressure (which correspond to the compressions), where the density of particles is higher, and areas of lower pressure (which correspond to the rarefactions), where density of particles is lower.
