Please 1) describe what is meant by the terms short-wave and long-wave energy, 2) name a specific type of electromagnetic energy
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

  1. wavelength difference
  2. ultraviolet, infrared
  3. shortwave = Sun; longwave = Earth

Explanation:

  1. The terms shortwave and longwave radiation refer to the wavelength of the radiation, which is the distance from the crest of one wave to the crest of another. The wavelength reflects the energy of the wave. Longwave radiation is less energetic, while shortwave has more energy. Longwave radiation has even longer wavelengths than red light in the visible spectrum, while ultraviolet radiation has wavelengths shorter even than the shortest violet visible light.
  2. Ultraviolet is not the only kind of shortwave radiation; in fact, it is the shortwave radiation closest to visible light on the electromagnetic spectrum. X rays and gamma rays have far shorter wavelengths and thus are more energetic. Infrared radiation is the type of the longwave radiation that is closest to the visible spectrum. Radiation with much longer wavelengths than infrared light include microwaves and radio waves.
  3. The Sun produces its own radiation since it is a body that is much more massive and with a much higher temperature than the Earth. Because of this, the radiation emitted from the Sun is mostly shortwave radiation. The Earth emits radiation as well, but it is infrared radiation emitted in the form of heat that is not visible to human eyes.

1. How does the Pampas region impact<br> economic development in Latin America?
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

The Pampas region has a big economic impact as it is the agricultural heart of Latin America.

Explanation:

The Pampas is a region that is mostly comprised of lowlands. Naturally, it is a biome where grasses dominate. The soil is highly fertile and the region as it is is relatively large. Humans have easily seen the potential of the Pampas and spend no time converting it in an agricultural landscape.

Latin America is a region that heavily relies on agriculture, both farming and raising cattle. Large, relatively flat land with fertile soil is excellent for farming, so the Pampas has been heavily exploited for the large-scale production of agricultural goods. Also, raising cattle is among the highest in the world in Latin America and it is constantly growing as a sector, and grasslands are needed to sustain the cattle, so the Pampas again is the place to exploit for it. While this has a big and positive economic impact, the effects on the flora and fauna of the Pampas have been devastating, to say the least.

What term describes a stream which receives water through the inflow of groundwater through the stream bed?
Gemiola [76]

Gaining stream describes a stream which receives water through the inflow of groundwater through the stream bed.

Groundwater that enters a gaining stream is coming from a saturated zone. Gaining stream channels are typically at or below the water table level. When the water table crosses the land surface over a large, relatively flat area, bodies of water and marshes are formed.

The channels of gaining streams are usually at or below the level of the water table. Bodies of water and marshes form when the water table intersects the land surface over a broad, fairly flat area.

"Gaining stream," which typically draws water from the earth. The term "losing streams" refers to streams that leak water into the earth from the streambed. Rivers can grow and shrink in different places; they can grow at one point in the year and shrink at another. Additionally, even a stream that is growing will be losing some water, as the yellow arrow illustrates, and vice versa.
