How are tornadoes formed?

Geography
1 answer:
AnnyKZ [126]4 years ago
3 0

Tornadoes are formed from a thunderstorm.

Then there will be a change in the wind direction and wind speed along with Air mixing. This causes it to swirl horizontally.

The swirling picks up more warm air from the ground as it collects more air it turns into a funnel where it stretches and becomes longer.

After this process it will stretch towards the ground and when it touches the ground it becomes a tornado.

The dry, cool air mostly come from south of Canada while the warm, moist air comes from the north of Mexico. To form a tornado it can take rearly seconds for one to form but could also take longer.

Hope this helps! :3

Task
Yakvenalex [24]

The slope of segment CD is 7. The length of segment BC is √50 units and the figure is a square.

Explanation:

Part A

Slope of a segment is calculated as the ratio of rise over run

In this case, C (8,3) and D(7,-4)

The slope is m=Δy/Δx

Δy=-4-3=-7

Δx=7-8=-1

m= -7/-1 =7

The slope is positive as seen in the graph for segment CD

Part B

To find length of a segment, the formula to apply is:

d=\sqrt{(y_2-y_1)^2+(x_2-x_1)^2

Given that B(3,8) and C(8,3) then

x₁=3,x₂=8,y₁=8,y₂=3

substitute values in equation as;

d=\sqrt{(3-8)^2 +(8-3)^2} \\\\d=\sqrt{(-5)^2+(5)^2} \\\\d=\sqrt{25+25} \\d=\sqrt{50} \\\\\\d=7.07

The formula used to find length of a segment

Part C

The geometric figure is a Square.The proof is that the length of the segments is equal, √50 units

What are the impacts of indian summer moonsoon​
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

A large part of South Asia receives rainfall mainly during the Indian Summer Monsoon (ISM) season of the year (Jun–Sep). The socioeconomic conditions of most of the developing countries in this region largely depend on the ISM rains. It also played important roles in rise and collapse of ancient civilizations in this region. However, the influence of the ISM on Indian ancient civilizations has not yet been fully explored though there were some attempts to correlate monsoon variation with their rise and fall. For example, in the mid to late Holocene period, Indus Valley or Harappan Civilization flourished in the western part of India from its early development, through its urbanization and eventual transformation into a rural society. Probably a prolonged decrease in the ISM rainfall caused the decline in the urban phase of the Indus Civilization around the 4.2 kyr BP global climate event. Another well-recorded early Holocene global climate event is the 8.2 kyr BP cooling event which also reportedly influenced ISM significantly, but its impact on human settlement is not clear in this region. The present study is a comprehensive review of the archaeological and climatological researches carried out on the role of ISM variability on the rise and fall of ancient Indian civilizations for the most part of the ongoing interglacial period, the Holocene. The review covers the studies on the period of the last 10 kyr as evidence suggests that human settlement and cultural developments in this region started around the beginning of this period. We have noted that the existing studies are mostly restricted to vague qualitative analysis of the weakening/strengthening of the ISM, and researches related to quantitative estimations of changes of the monsoon strengths and durations of drought events that caused collapse of civilizations are limited. Therefore, in the present analysis, emphasis has also been given on the requirement of estimating the absolute changes that might have caused cultural shifts. Some possible ways to quantitatively estimate the changes of some climate parameters are discussed.

A short summary about drought 90words​
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

Drought is a dangerous condition which decreases the quality of life. It is termed as a natural disaster with harmful effects. A drought usually occurs when a region faces a shortage of water. This is mainly due to lesser rainfalls. In addition, droughts have proven to be fatal for mankind and wildlife as well.

Moreover, drought is the most dangerous for a farmer. As they do not have an ample supply of water, their crops dry out. This becomes a reason for worry as it is their sole income. Furthermore, drought also leads to various other problems for the environment and mankind.

Causes of Drought

Drought is caused due to various reasons. One of the main reasons is deforestation. When there will be no trees, the water on land will evaporate at a faster rate. Similarly, it lessens the soil capacity to hold water resulting in evaporation.

Moreover, lesser trees also mean lesser rainfall which eventually leads to drought.

Furthermore, as the climate is changing, the water bodies are drying up. This results in a lower flow of surface water. Therefore, when the rivers and lakes will dry out, how will the people get water? In addition, global warming is a major cause of this. The greenhouse gas emitted causes the earth’s temperature to rise. Thus, it results in higher evaporation rates.

Subsequently, excessive irrigation is also a great cause of droughts. When we use water irresponsibly, the surface water dries up. As it does not get ample time to replenish, it causes drought.
