Answer:
<u>Longitude </u>measure the distance east to west of the prime meridian that runs through greenwich england. Degrees are denoted by the greek word lamba.
Explanation:
- Longitude gives us an angular measurement from 0 to 180 degrees. Subdivided into 60 minutes and 60 seconds. As longitude is singular at the poles.
- Earth's tectonic plates move relative to one another in different directions at the speed of 50 to 100mm per year so the movement sin tectonic plates influence the latitudinal rotation which changes from year to year.
- These vertical lines define the places on the earth with their approximate sea level surfaces. The longitudinal belt is the equator at the zero degrees largest longitude on earth.
Answer:
<u>Fossil fuel- </u>The sources of fossil fuels are directly from the plants and animals, that are buried millions of years back and are converted into fossil now.
The consumption of fossil fuel leads to the emission of carbon into the atmosphere that is responsible for the increasing global temperature. This is one of the major problem of fossil fuel use.
<u>Nuclear fuel-</u> Nuclear fuels are derived from the radioactive elements such as uranium, strontium and potassium.
One of the major problem of using nuclear fuel is that it releases radioactive waste, that are harmful for various life forms.
<u>Renewable fuels-</u> This are renewable energy that can be generated again and again and are directly derived from the wind, water and the sun. For example, wind mill, solar panels and dams.
One problem of renewable fuels is that it has a lower production of energy such as electricity in comparison to the fossil fuels.
The Ural Mountains is a natural geographical feature that divides European Russia from Asian Russia =)
I hope I helped! ^-^
After looking at the picture you posted above, the name of the oldest New York State index fossil that can be found in the Early Ordovician bedrock is called Tetragraptus.
