<u>Answer:</u>

Liquid in the thermometer expands and rises when it exposed to warm air.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The Thermometer can be used to measure the temperature of the air. When a thermometer is exposed to the atmosphere, the thermometer’s temperature tries to equalise the temperature of the surrounding air.

The state at which the temperature of the thermometer is equal to surrounding air temperature is called as Thermodynamic Equilibrium. To reach this state the liquid present inside the thermometer must either heat up or cool down.

So when a thermometer is exposed to warm or hot air, the liquid inside the thermometer(mercury) gets heated up. This heat causes the liquid to expand to reach the equilibrium state. Similarly, when the thermometer is exposed to cool air, the liquid condenses to match the outer temperature, thereby reaching the thermodynamic equilibrium.

Regional Geography lays emphasis on the
Anika [276]

Answer:

We can use the example of the Greater Accra region, one of the new regions of Ghana.

Explanation:

The Greater Accra region consists essentially of the city of Accra, and its immediate sorroundings, and has over 4 million people.

As the most populated region in the country, its regional economy is the most important for Ghana. It is where a great part of the country's industrial and service sectors are located. The reason for this is geographical: people living close to each other in cities tend to form closer economic ties that increase efficiency and productivity.

How are edge cities formed and how are they beneficial/detrimental?​
sergey [27]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Edge cities are usually formed because land in the suburbs or on the outskirts of the city is cheaper (bid-rent curve), so they can make more a profit.

These businesses are normally connected the the CBD (central business district) so transportation to and from that area is still possible.

People that live in the suburbs or are visiting the main city have easy access to the edge city as you might not have to travel as far to these cities as the CBD (distance decay).

Edge cities can be a good thing because they allow for new businesses to thrive and they can increase economic activity and competition due to new construction, cheaper prices, new companies moving in, etc.

However, they can also be a detriment to the CBD because they might allow companies to relocate due to the cheaper land prices, they might take in the typical customers of the CBD companies, ultimately leading to the vacancy of the CBDs, which could be dangerous and create high-crime, unsanitary, or contaminated areas. It can also take attention away from significant or historical monuments and locations in the CBD.

Have a wonderful day and keep on learning! :D
