Answer: No, deserts are found at 30 degrees latitude

Explanation:

Most of the world's deserts are located near 30 degrees north latitude and 30 degrees south latitude, where the heated equatorial air begins to descend. ... As moist air passes over a mountain range, it expands and cools, precipitating most of its moisture as it rises.

How does the diameter of each ripple change as time passes

VLD [36.1K]

The diameter of the ripple changes by the following equation = $\frac{dA}{dt} = \frac{\pi }{2} D . \frac{d(D)}{dt}$

Explanation:

When a pebble or a rock is dropped in the water then the ripples or waves are formed which starts moving radially outward. As the time passes, the radius of the circle increases.

Let D be the diameter of the circle.

$\frac{dD}{dt}$ will be the rate of change of diameter of the circle with respect to time.

Let A be the area of the circle.

$\frac{dA}{dt}$ will be the rate of change of area of the circle with respect to time.

Area of the circle = $\frac{\pi }{4} D^{2}$

So,

$\frac{dA}{dt} = \frac{d [\frac{\pi }{4} D^{2}] }{dt}$

$\frac{dA}{dt} = \frac{\pi }{4} \frac{d[ D(t)^{2}] }{dt}$

Using chain rule,

$\frac{dA}{dt} = \frac{\pi }{4} X \frac{d[D(t)^{2} ]}{d[D(t)]} X \frac{d[D(t)]}{dt}$

$\frac{dA}{dt} = \frac{\pi }{4} . 2D(t) . \frac{dD}{dt}$

$\frac{dA}{dt} = \frac{\pi }{2} X D(t) X \frac{d(D)}{dt}$

$\frac{dA}{dt} = \frac{\pi }{2} D . \frac{d(D)}{dt}$

Thus, the following equation determines the change in area in terms of diameter with respect to time : $\frac{dA}{dt} = \frac{\pi }{2} D . \frac{d(D)}{dt}$
