<h2>Answer: Option D</h2><h2 />

Option A, "a large swirling, low-pressure system that forms over the warm Atlantic Ocean"  is incorrect because tornadoes do not form over water. That would be a hurricane.

Option B, "a winter storm with wind speeds of at least 56 km/h and low visibility" Is incorrect because tornadoes do not form in cold weather. That would be a blizzard.

Oa boundary between two air masses of different density, moisture, or temperature​ption C, "a violently rotating column of air in contact with the ground" is correct <u>because tornadoes are columns of air that rotate due to warm air and cold air colliding.</u> They usually occur during a thunderstorm.

Option D, "a boundary between two air masses of different density, moisture, or temperature​" is incorrect because tornadoes are not based on air mass, density, moisture, or temperature. This would be a front.

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

B. China has a large population , so its GDP per person is only modest

Explanation:

Despite being one of the countries with highest GDP's in the world, and experiencing enormous economic development in the past few decades, China's population is still not having the same level of financial power as the other countries with high GDP's. The main reason for this is that China has enormous population, being the most populated country in the world with over 1.3 billion people. Because of the enormous population, when the money are redistributed to everyone, it turns out that China is still at a level of a developing country. Not to make mistake, China's population has much higher standard of living than what it had few decades ago, so the people live much better, but the country still has a long way to go to reach the GDP's per capita that the other countries have.

Light travels at 3 x 105 km/s (300,000 km or 186,000 miles). How long will it take to get to earth? (A distance of 1.5 x 108 km)
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Option (4)

Explanation:

Here, Speed of light= 3\times10^5 Km/sec

Distance= 1.5\times10^8 Km

We know that,

Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}

\implies Time=\frac{Distance}{Speed}

Time=\frac{1.5\times10^8}{3\times 10^5}

=0.5 \times10^3

=500 sec

=8 minutes 20 sec

Hence, the correct answer is option (4) i.e 8 minutes.
