Why do hurricanes spin in opposite directions?

Geography
1 answer:
zheka24 [161]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

This is how the hurricanes are created: In the Northern Hemisphere, winds moving north will move to the east, and winds that are moving south are diverted westward. In the Southern Hemisphere, winds blowing toward the equator will move eastward, and winds traveling in the opposite direction will curve west.

This process results in winds colliding and swirling clockwise in the south, and counterclockwise in the north.

It takes 88 years for a popuaiton to grow from 1,200 individuals to 4,800 individuals what is the instristic rate of growth?
Katen [24]

Answer:

3.43

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Time taken for the given growth in population = 88 years

Initial population, n = 1,200

Total population, N = 4,800

Now,

we know

Total population is given as:

N = n + [ rn( (k - n) ÷ k ) ]

here,

r is the intrinsic growth rate

k is the Carrying capacity = 2N = 2 × 4,800 = 9,600

on substituting the respective values, we get

4,800 = 1,200 + [ r × 1,200( (9,600 - 1,200) ÷ 9,600 ) ]

or

3,600 =  r × 1,050

or

r = 3.43
