Answer:

<h2>c. More total rainfall from a slower moving storm.</h2>

Explanation:

Choices for this question are

a. Less flooding because rain will have more time to soak into the ground.

b. Less total rainfall from a weakening system.

c. More total rainfall from a slower moving storm.

d. Shorter period under the rainbands.

When hurricane's forward speed decreases, they will last more time, because their energy is gonna last more. This means that the rainfall will also last more days. Even-though, slower hurricanes tend to last more time because of this, so, the chances of happening floods is higher, because the rainfall will continue for more days.

Answer:

The correct answer is c. More total rainfall from a slower moving storm.

When the the forward speed of the hurricanes and tropical storms slows down they tend to increase the rainfall. Because of the slow movement the storm can be for few days over a given region and produce rainfall without stopping, thus create major flooding, pilling up of the coastal water, and produce persistent strong winds even though they have decreased in their forward speed.

Convert the following to relative uncertainties <br>a) 2.70 ± 0.05cm<br>b) 12.02 ± 0.08cm
DENIUS [597]

data which is expressed in form of following way

a = a_o + \Delta a

here in above expression

a_o = true value

\Delta a = uncertainty in the value

now the relative uncertainty is given as

\frac{\Delta a}{a_o}

now by above formula we can say

a) 2.70 ± 0.05cm

here

True value = 2.70

uncertainty = 0.05

Relative uncertainty = \frac{0.05}{2.70} = 0.0185

b) 12.02 ± 0.08cm

here

True value = 12.02

uncertainty = 0.08

Relative uncertainty = \frac{0.08}{12.02} = 0.00665

Answer: C. Metals are found on the left side of the periodic table.

Explanation:

The periodic table contains vertical columns called as groups and horizontal rows called as periods.

Period 2 contains 8 elements which are lithium, beryllium , boron , carbon, nitrogen, oxygen , fluorine and neon. Only Lithium and beryllium are metals.

Group 18 contains all the noble gases which are all non metals.

Metals are the elements which loose electrons easily and form positive ions. Non-metals are the elements which can gain electrons easily and form negative ions.

Metals are present on left side of the periodic table and as we move to right side of the periodic table , the metallic character decreases and thus non metals are found on the right side of the periodic table.
