The statement is - a. True.

The wind is one of the natural factors that manages to erode places, transport material, and deposit material. Everything depends on the strength of the wind. The stronger the wind is, the more force it has, thus its can carry much bigger particles, and in some cases even big and heavy objects. The less strong the wind is, the lesser the size and weight of the particles it can carry, as it force is much smaller.

There's multiple strong winds that can carry big particles and objects with them, like the hurricanes, typhoons, sand-storms, and there's even more that are pretty calm slow windows that can carry only small particles, usually being local winds, like the Vardarec or Jugo.

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.

What causes the changing of seasons throughout the year
TEA [102]

Answer: The earth's spin axis is tilted with respect to its orbital plane.

Explanation:

This is what causes the seasons. When the earth's axis points towards the sun, it is summer for that hemisphere. When the earth's axis points away, winter can be expected.

Debora [2.8K]
Hello! Rome, Italy being located along those lines is an example of absolute location. It’s absolute location, because it shows the exact points of where the city is and the points don’t change.
