Hi there
Facts about the Great Plains
1) They support one of the lowest population densities in the United States
2) Occupy around 500,000 miles of west-central North America
3) Millions of American bison roamed the Great Plains before their near-extermination by market hunters in the late 1800s
4) Through dedicated conservation efforts, bison have made an impressive comeback both on public and private lands.
5) Along wildlife other than bison were pronghorn, elk, mule deer, white-tailed deer, etc.
6) Cast in the rainshadow of the Rockies, the Great Plains harbor the greatest remaining expanses of prairie, a highly-endangered habitat, in the country.
7) While many presume the Great Plains to be relentlessly level, the province actually contains much topographic variety.
8) There are island mountain ranges, especially on the Missouri Plateau---the Bears Paw Mountains, the Sweetgrass Hills, the Black Hills, for example.
9) The Great Plains of interior North America constitute one of the largest grassland expanses in the world
10) For thousands of years, human cultures as varied as the Kiowa, the Blackfeet, the Spanish and the Americans have explored, hunted, settled and fought over these vast spaces.
We need to assume that the orbits are circular; this is a very good approximation and do not hesitate to adopt it. We need then to consider the basic equation of circular motion that relates centripetal acceleration, angular velocity, mass, radius and force:
. We also have the basic equation of Newton, F=ma. By checking, we see that for each planet we have that a=v^2*r where v is the angular velocity. v=
where T is the orbital period, hence we have that a=
. Denote with the index 1 the Earth case and with 2 the Mars case. We have then that
. Substituting the known values in a calculator, we get the result: the centripetal acceleration of earth is 2.32 times greater than that of Mars.
A. More food allows people to hunt more.
B. More food allows the population to move from place to place.
C. More food allows people to control their source of water.
D. More food allows the population to grow.
Answer:
Seismic tomography
Explanation:
Seismic tomography is a technique for imaging the subsurface of the Earth with seismic waves produced by earthquakes or explosions. P-, S-, and surface waves can be used for tomographic models of different resolutions based on seismic wavelength, wave source distance, and the seismograph array coverage. The data collected can be represented in a 3D image for further investigation.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
The cloud of gas and dust are reason for the formation of both stars and planets.The dark band in the middle is made of a disk of thick dust, which obscures the light within it and hides the forming star from view. When this structure of gas and cloud collapsed into a flattened disk, within which the Sun and planets formed.
Hence option C is correct.
