The wind and water work to erode the mountains.
Rom4ik [11]3 years ago

When water comes quickly down a mountain, sometimes, it takes some of the rocks of the mountain down with it.  That's called erosion.  As time goes on, water will take more and more rocks down the mountain, so that will make the mountain smaller.  Wind can also blow rocks down the mountain, that can make caves, and different types of forms in the mountain, and make the mountain smaller.

Who is Taylor swift in real life rude mean nice help
Iteru [2.4K]
When Taylor swift was receiving her music award and Kanye West interrupted her right before she made her speech, she didn't attack him, push or yell at him. Taylor didn't make a scene or react. Most people would have. I think this tells us about her character. It appears that she is kind, not impulsive and overall a classy lady. Even afterwards, she didn't bad mouth or go on a social media to blast against Kanye on the Internet. This demonstrates that Taylor is strong and has thick skin.

Gas makes things buoyant, why ? And what are ways that this could be useful?
ryzh [129]

Answer:

Gas makes things buoyant by making the volume of an object lighter than the surrounding fluid it is trying to displace.

Gas Buoyancy is useful in the following ways;

• Airships

• Steel ships and

• All floating and flying vessels

Explanation:

Buoyancy is the tendency of an object to float in a fluid such as air or water. It is a phenomenon that was theorized by the mathematician, Archimedes known as the Archimedes Principle.

It states that the upward buoyant force that is exerted on a body immersed in a fluid is equal to the weight of the fluid that the body displaces.

The principle explains the reason why objects float and fly.

So, when an object is immersed in a fluid, it can float due to the upward force exerted by the fluid on the object. But for this to happen, the object has to weigh less than the fluid it is displacing.

This is where the use of a gas comes into play.

Because the object may be heavier than the surrounding fluid it is trying to displace, it is filled with a large amount of gas (usually hydrogen and/or helium) which is lighter. This makes the volume of the gas and the object put together lighter than that of the surrounding air.

This is what causes objects to float or fly

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

Why is the air colder farther from the earth,you ask ?its easy

Explanation:

A pretty basic answer is that the farther away you get from the earth, the thinner and thinner  the atmosphere gets. The total heat content of a system is directly related to the amount of matter present, so it gets cooler and cooler at higher elevations.
