Which statement best reflects a change in climate? It's very windy today and will rain later. Droughts in California have become

more common over the past few decades. There is a hurricane forming off the coast of Florida. Tropical climates are likely to be wet and warm.

Answer:

Droughts in California have become more common over the past few decades

Explanation:

Normally people get confused between three terms: weather, season and climate and use them in a wrong manner.

Weather: It is an environment condition for a short period of time over a small area.

Season: A weather pattern common for one hemisphere of the Earth for a period of 3 months.

Climate: Weather pattern for a very long time (more than decades).

Using this you can easily see that only statement 2 reflects the change in climate. Other statements only shows the temporary weather phenomenon.

A person walks the path shown below. The total trip consists of four straight-line paths.
dmitriy555 [2]

At the end of the walk, the person's resultant displacement is 495.1 m at 63⁰ south of west.

<h3>What is resultant displacement?</h3>

The resultant displacement of an object is the change in position of the object. It can be described as the shortest distance connecting the final position of the object to the initial position of the object.

<h3>Net horizontal displacement </h3>

Path 1 = 40 m

Path 2 = 0 m

Path 3 = 110 m x cos(30) = 95.26 m

Path 4 = 180 m x cos(60) = 90 m

Total horizontal displacement, X = 40 m + 0 m + 95.26 m + 90 m = 225.26 m

<h3>Net vertical displacement </h3>

Path 1 = 0 m

Path 2 = 230 m

Path 3 = 110 m x sin(30) = 55 m

Path 4 = 180 m x sin(60) = 155.885 m

Total horizontal displacement, Y = 0 m + 230 m + 55 m + 155.885 m = 440.885 m

<h3>Resultant displacement</h3>

R = √(X² + Y²)

R = √(225.26² + 440.885²)

R = 495.1 m

<h3>Direction of the displacement</h3>

θ = arc tan (Y/X)

θ = arc tan (440.885/225.26)

θ =  63⁰

Thus, at the end of the walk, the person's resultant displacement is 495.1 m at 63⁰ south of west.

In comparison with other ocean basins, major sedimentary features such as continental rises and abyssal plains are relatively ra
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

Why are continental rises and abyssal plains relatively rare in the Pacific? This is because the extensive system of trenches along the active margins of the Pacific, trap much of the sediments flowing off the continents, preventing them from building the broad, flat abyssal plains typical of the Atlantic ocean basins.
