Answer:

2.656 km

Explanation:

Velocity of sound in the air = 332 m/s

time t= 8 sec

distance = velocity\times time

distance= 332\times8

=2656 meters =2.656 km

therefore,  distance = 2.656 km

Florida has lightening quite often because

Florida receives a lot of heat through out the year, air close the ground is warmed and frequent sea breezes (Florida is surrounded by seas and oceans) provide the necessary lift and moisture for the formation of thunderstorms. This why lightning is common Florida

What is the difference between erosion and deposition?
Verdich [7]
<span>Erosion is the displacement of solids (soil, mud, rock and other particles) by the agents of wind, water or ice, by downward or down-slope movement in response to gravity or by living organisms (in the case of bioerosion). 

Deposition, also known as sedimentation, is the geological process whereby material is added to a landform. This is the process by which wind, water or ice create a sediment deposit, through the laying down of granular material that has been eroded and transported from another geographical location. 

Deposition occurs when the forces responsible for sediment transportation are no longer sufficient to overcome the forces of particle weight and friction, which resist motion. Deposition can also refer to the build up of a sediment from organically derived matter or chemical processes. For example, chalk is made up partly of the microscopic calcium carbonate skeletons of marine plankton, the deposition of which has induced chemical processes (diagenesis) to deposit further calcium carbonate.</span>

Is relative humidity or dewpoint a better variable to examine to determine if there is sufficient moisture for thunderstorms to
skad [1K]

Answer:Relative humidity is a better

measure

Explanation:

Why? Because relative humidity measures the amount of moisture in the air compared to the current temperature of the air and what it can hold at that point. While few point merely measures the temperature of the air at which it reaches dew point and dew falls. . The basic conditions for a thunderstorm are moisture, unstable air and lift. It would be easier to read off moisture level in the air since relative humidity at 90 to 100 means it will rain more certainly than it will with dew point which may only mean that dew will fall.
