Jet streams are fast-moving streams of air high above Earth's surface. A divergence or convergence in the jet stream above a hig

h- or low-pressure center can drive the actions of these pressure centers. If the air in the jet stream is converging or diverging faster than the air at the surface is moving out or in, the driving force of the jet stream is compensated by an increase in surface winds.
A jet stream generally diverges above a low-pressure (warm) center. However, at Earth's surface, air converges at a low-pressure center. If the divergence of the jet stream is greater than the convergence of air at the surface low-pressure center below it, what will happen to the surface winds?

Answer:

The surface wind will most likely get stronger.

Explanation:

The magnitude of surface wind is dependent on several factors such as the pressure gradient, centrifugal acceleration, primary and secondary winds. The movement of jet streams above the surface of the Earth influences the factors that affect the magnitude of the surface wind. An increase in the jet stream driving forces makes the surface wind more stronger.

1. Describe the most important diagnostic properties in igneous rocks.

1- The terrestrial lithosphere is composed almost of 80% by igneous rocks, they are also known as magmatic rocks and are formed at high temperatures due to magma solidification, they come from the superior mantle and terrestrial coast. Its texture is super resistant with significant hardness to obtain minerals and other derived materials. They can be divided into extrusive and intrusive.

2- Through experiments, Bowen has defined a sequence of mineral formation when a magma begins to cool. There are two types of magmatic differentiation defined by Bowen, the continuous series and the discontinuous series. In the continuous series the internal structure of the magma is not altered and all minerals have iron and magnesium, they are formed: aluminum, silica and sodium and calcium.

In the discontinuous series decreasing the temperature reacts the previously formed mineral with the existing liquid, and thus a new mineral with different internal structure and composition is formed. They are formed: olivine, pyroxena, amphibole and biotite.

Occurs at divergent boundaries and creates new seafloor
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
The answer is seafloor spreading. It is a progression that happens at mid-ocean ridges which are the divergent boundaries, where new oceanic crust is made through volcanic activity and then slowly moves away from the ridge. This helps clarify the continental drift theory in the plate tectonics theory.

Besides Earth, astronomers believe they are most likely to find evidence of life on the planet ____.
patriot [66]
<span>Many scientists believe we are not alone in the universe. It's probable, they say, that life could have arisen on at least some of the billions of planets thought to exist in our galaxy alone -- just as it did here on planet Earth. This basic question about our place in the Universe is one that may be answered by scientific investigations. What are the next steps to finding life elsewhere?

I found this answer on nasa.gov I hope this helps.</span>
