In the tropics, the absorbed solar energy is greater than the emitted thermal radiation lost to space. The reverse is true at th

e poles. What stops the tropics getting hotter and hotter and the poles getting colder and colder?

Answer:

Cyclones and ocean currents transport heat towards the poles

Explanation:

The reason why the tropics is not getting hotter and the poles not getting colder is due to the activities of cyclones and ocean currents which transport heats towards the poles thus enabling the temperatures at the tropics and the poles to remain fairly constant.

What is the value of X6? <br><br> Show the solution.

wariber [46]

Answer : The value of $x_6$ is $\sqrt{7}$ .

Explanation :

As we are given 6 right angled triangle in the given figure.

First we have to calculate the value of $x_1$ .

Using Pythagoras theorem in triangle 1 :

$(Hypotenuse)^2=(Perpendicular)^2+(Base)^2$

$(x_1)^2=(1)^2+(1)^2$

$x_1=\sqrt{(1)^2+(1)^2}$

$x_1=\sqrt{2}$

Now we have to calculate the value of $x_2$ .

Using Pythagoras theorem in triangle 2 :

$(Hypotenuse)^2=(Perpendicular)^2+(Base)^2$

$(x_2)^2=(1)^2+(X_1)^2$

$(x_2)^2=(1)^2+(\sqrt{2})^2$

$x_2=\sqrt{(1)^2+(\sqrt{2})^2}$

$x_2=\sqrt{3}$

Now we have to calculate the value of $x_3$ .

Using Pythagoras theorem in triangle 3 :

$(Hypotenuse)^2=(Perpendicular)^2+(Base)^2$

$(x_3)^2=(1)^2+(X_2)^2$

$(x_3)^2=(1)^2+(\sqrt{3})^2$

$x_3=\sqrt{(1)^2+(\sqrt{3})^2}$

$x_3=\sqrt{4}$

Now we have to calculate the value of $x_4$ .

Using Pythagoras theorem in triangle 4 :

$(Hypotenuse)^2=(Perpendicular)^2+(Base)^2$

$(x_4)^2=(1)^2+(X_3)^2$

$(x_4)^2=(1)^2+(\sqrt{4})^2$

$x_4=\sqrt{(1)^2+(\sqrt{4})^2}$

$x_4=\sqrt{5}$

Now we have to calculate the value of $x_5$ .

Using Pythagoras theorem in triangle 5 :

$(Hypotenuse)^2=(Perpendicular)^2+(Base)^2$

$(x_5)^2=(1)^2+(X_4)^2$

$(x_5)^2=(1)^2+(\sqrt{5})^2$

$x_5=\sqrt{(1)^2+(\sqrt{5})^2}$

$x_5=\sqrt{6}$

Now we have to calculate the value of $x_6$ .

Using Pythagoras theorem in triangle 6 :

$(Hypotenuse)^2=(Perpendicular)^2+(Base)^2$

$(x_6)^2=(1)^2+(X_5)^2$

$(x_6)^2=(1)^2+(\sqrt{6})^2$

$x_6=\sqrt{(1)^2+(\sqrt{6})^2}$

$x_6=\sqrt{7}$

Therefore, the value of $x_6$ is $\sqrt{7}$ .

What are some rapid changes to the earths surface. what are some slow changes to the earths surface

zvonat [6]

A slow change to the earth's surface would be the formation of mountain ranges over millions of years due to the shifting of tectonic plates under the earth. Also, another slow change could be considered erosion or weathering. Two rapid changes could be landslides and earthquakes.
