Answer:

E. Low Latitudes

Explanation:

The area between the Tropic of Cancer and Capricon is called Low latitudes.

The area is located between 30° N and South of the equator.

This area receives the highest solar insolation all year round.
Most of the area is dominated by tropical climate.
Their forests contains the most biodiversity in the world.
They can be found in Amazon basin Brazil, Congo basin Africa.
The equatorial regions of the world is also found there.
The seasons alternates between wet and dry.

From strongest to weakest wich planet has the most gravitational pull? Mars, Earth, and the Moon

OleMash [197]

Answer:

Jupiter

Explanation:

One of Sir Isaac Newton's accomplishments established that the gravitational force between two bodies is proportional to their masses. All other things being equal, the planet with the strongest pull is the one with the largest mass, which is Jupiter.

THE 1883 KRAKATOA VOLCANIC ERUPTION

Resources:

1. Mary Bagley, “Krakatoa Volcano: Facts About 1883 Eruption,” LiveScience (September 14, 2017).

2. Simon Winchester, Krakatoa – The Day the World Exploded: August 27, 1883 (New York: HarperCollins, 2003).

4. Volcano.oregonstate.edu › krakatau

(Krakatau | Volcano World | Oregon State University)

Explanation:

The island of Krakatau is located in Sunda Strait between Java and Sumatra. It is part of the Indonesian Island Arc. Volcanic activity is due to subduction of the Indo-Australian tectonic plate as it moves northward toward mainland Asia. The Krakatoa island is found to be about 3 miles wide and 5.5 miles long (9 by 5 kilometers). As at the time of this eruption in 1883, the region was part of the Dutch East Indies; it’s now part of Indonesia. Location: Krakatoa, Anak Krakatau Island, Pulau, South Lampung Regency, Lampung, Indonesia, Asia.

In August 1883, the eruption of Krakatoa, (or Krakatau), was one of the most deadly volcanic eruptions of modern history ever recorded. It is estimated that more than 36,000 people died. The deaths recorded were as a result of the thermal injury from the blasts. Also, the victims were of the tsunamis that followed the fall of the volcano into the caldera below sea level. The temperatures dropped all over the world and the climate was affected because the eruption was so terrible.

Where does earths magnetic field run parallel to its surface?

zheka24 [161]

To a first approximation, the Earth's magnetic field resembles that of an enormous bar magnet. The field lines emerge from the southern half of the earth and re-enter in the northern half.
Several features of the Earth's field vary in a predictable way across the surface of the globe and might, in principle, be used in assessing geographic position. For example, at each location on the Earth, the field lines intersect the Earth's surface at a specific angle of inclination. On the diagram above, note that near the equator, the field lines are approximately parallel to the Earth's surface; the inclination angle in this region is said to be 0°. As one travels north from the equator, however, the field lines become progressively steeper. At the magnetic pole, the field lines are directed almost straight down into the Earth and the inclination is said to be 90°. Thus, inclination angle varies with latitude. As a consequence, an animal that has the ability to distinguish between magnetic inclination angles has a mechanism that it might be able to use to approximate its latitude. As we will discuss, hatchling loggerheads have been shown to have this ability.A second geomagnetic parameter that varies across the surface of the Earth is the strength or intensity of the field. Although intensity varies somewhat less predictably than inclination, the general trend is that the field is strongest near the magnetic poles and is weakest near the equator. Hatchling loggerheads have also been shown to detect magnetic field intensity.Important Features of the Earth's field:Inclination angle: The angle at which the magnetic field lines intersect the surface of the earth. This angle ranges from 0 degrees at the equator to 90 degrees at the poles.Intensity: The magnetic field also varies in strength over the earth's surface. It is strongest at the poles and weakest at the equator.
