When it is a hot summer

<span>Sea breeze can happen during hot summer days because of the uneven heating rates of water and land. The land surface heats up faster than the surface of the water during the day. At this rate, the air above the land grows warmer than the air atop the ocean. Warmer air is always lighter than cooler air. As a consequence, warm air is pushed upward causing it to rise. With this, warmer air rises over the land. As warm air rises over the land, cooler air over the ocean flows over the land surface to change or replace the rising warm air.</span>

Infrared radiation from young stars can pass through the heavy dust clouds surrounding them, allowing astronomers here on Earth

Semmy [17]

Answer:

$\lambda=6.83\times 10^{-5}\ m$

Explanation:

Given that,

An infrared telescope is tuned to detect infrared radiation with a frequency of 4.39 THz.

We know that,

1 THz = 10¹² Hz

So,

f = 4.39 × 10¹² Hz

We need to find the wavelength of the infrared radiation.

We know that,

$\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{4.39\times 10^{12}}\\\\=6.83\times 10^{-5}\ m$

So, the wavelength of the infrared radiation is $6.83\times 10^{-5}\ m$ .

Define the law of universal gravitation in your own words.

Firdavs [7]

Newton's law of universal gravitation states that a particle attracts every other particle in the universe using a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers

How does air pressure change with altitude?

charle [14.2K]

Air pressure changes with altitude because of issues related to gravity. Molecules have more weight the closer they are to the Earth and more of them move to lower elevations as a result; this causes increased pressure because there are more molecules in number and proximity. Conversely, air at higher elevations has less weight, but also forces pressure on those layers below it, resulting in the molecules closer to the Earth supporting more weight, increasing the pressure
