Hey there!

1.) Without the atmosphere, average temperature on Earth would be freezing! Below zero to be exact!

2.) The atmosphere protects us and animals from dangerous radiation from the Sun. Ultraviolet radiation is basically invisible rays of energy created by the sun.

3.) Also, the atmosphere provides oxygen for humans and animals to breathe and C02 (Carbon dioxide) for plants.

4.) And lastly, the atmosphere protects us from objects coming towards the earth.

Hope this helps!

Among some of the functions of the atmosphere we have:

1) The atmosphere acts as a protective shield or as a shield against the possible fall of meteorites coming from outer space on the earth.

2) The atmosphere protects the planet earth against the action of solar radiation. Without the atmosphere, human beings are exposed to the action of ultraviolet rays.

3) The atmosphere provides oxygen. This is vital for the organism in order to be able to complete the basic functions of life.

4) The atmosphere protects the planet from drastic variations in temperature and climate during the day and night.

A circle has a diameter

torisob [31]

The circumference of circle is 20.096 units

Solution:

Given that circle has a diameter with endpoints at (10, 8) and (5, 4)

To get the diameter, find the distance between the end points

The distance between two points is given by formula;

$d=\sqrt{\left(x_{2}-x_{1}\right)^{2}+\left(y_{2}-y_{1}\right)^{2}}$

Here the points are (10, 8) and (5, 4)

$(x_1, y_1) = (10, 8)\\\\(x_2, y_2) = (5, 4)$

Substituting the values we get,

$\begin{aligned}&d=\sqrt{(5-10)^{2}+(4-8)^{2}}\\\\&d=\sqrt{(-5)^{2}+(-4)^{2}}=\sqrt{25+16}=\sqrt{41}\end{aligned}$

$d = \sqrt{41} = 6.4$

Thus the diameter is 6.4 units

The circumference of the circle is given by formula:

$c = \pi d$

Where "d" is the diameter of circle

$c = 3.14 \times 6.4 = 20.096$

Thus circumference of circle is 20.096 units

In what ways are the sierra nevada mountains and the andes mountains the same in terms of mountain formation? quilet

castortr0y [4]

They are both on the end of the Pacific rim. They both have an above average number of volcanoes, and they are steeper and more narrow then other mountain ranges. This is a result of their both straddling and colliding continental plates and being on top of very active geological fault lines.
