Answer:

a. fumarole    --  1. a vent from which steam escapes

b. geyser    --  4. an eruption of hot water and steam

c. hot spring   --  2. ground water has come into contact with hot rocks and risen to the surface

d. travertine  --  3. massive deposits of calcium carbonate around a hot spring

Explanation:

  • A fumarole is opening of the crust and has emitted streams and gases like the carbon dioxide, and the sulfur dioxide, and hydrogen chloride, and hydrogen sulfide.
  • The streams are formed by the boiling of the superheated water and its pressure falls when it reaches the ground surface.
  • A geyser is a spring that is characterized by the discharge of the water ejected turbulently and is accompanied by a stream and exists at a few places on earth.
  • A hot spring is a hydrothermal vent that is made by the emergence of the geothermally heated groundwater that rises form the earth crust.
  • A travertine is a terrestrial sedimentary rock that is formed by the precipitation of the carbonate materials form the solution to the ground surface and a geothermally heated ground spring.

Answer:

Visible light range (between 400 and 800 nm).

Explanation:

The Sun emits a large range of electromagnetic waves, from gamma rays (higher frequencies) to radio waves (lower frequencies), through X-rays, ultraviolet rays, visible light, infrared radiation, microwaves. The peak of the Sun's energy output is actually in the visible light range (between 400 and 800 nm).

In the graph I annexed, you can see a simplified representation of the energy emissions of the Sun versus the wavelengths of those emissions. The y-axis shows the amount of energy emitted at a given wavelength and the x-axis represents different wavelengths of EM radiation. In this graph is observable than the major emission of radiation emitted by the Sun is in the visible range.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
