Answer:

Usually, as elevation increases, the weather gets colder and the climate becomes harsher (more intense weathering: windier and colder). There is also less air as elevation increases. As elevation decreases on land that most live on, the climate gets warmer as well as more humid.

I hope this helps! Please mark me brainliest if my answer is correct. Thank you!

The statement is TRUE.

The North Island of New Zealand is known for its volcanic activity, national parks and cosmopolitan cities. Home to about three-quarters of New Zealand’s population, it has the country’s largest city, Auckland. Surrounded by bays and islands, it’s known as the “the City of Sails.” At its southern tips is harbourside capital Wellington, home to the national museum, Te Papa.

Which of the following paraphrases Hubble Law?

77julia77 [94]

<h2>Answer: The greater the distance to a galaxy, the greater its redshift</h2>

When we talk about the visible electromagnetic spectrum, we know it starts in violet-blue and ends in red.

Now, in this context the astronomer Edwin Powell Hubble observed several celestial bodies, and when obtaining the spectra of distant galaxies he observed the spectral lines were displaced towards the red (red shift), whereas the nearby stars showed a spectrum displaced to the blue.

From there, Hubble deduced that the farther the galaxy is, the more redshifted it is in its spectrum, and noted that all galaxies are "moving away from each other with a speed that increases with distance", and enunciated the now called Hubble–Lemaître Law.

This means in the past the distance between two galaxies was smaller than at present, being this the proof that the universe is expanding (like a balloon expands when it is filled with air or another gas).

At this poitn it is important to stay clear that the redshift is not produced by the relative movement of the galaxies with each other. This effect is in fact, due to the own expansion of the space among the galaxies.

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

The wall acts as a dissipator for the energy of the ocean waves.

That is why on some coasts to reduce the force with which the waves collide on the shore, breakwaters are made to stop said maritime energy.

Explanation:

That is why this wall, if it is well built, acts as a barrier and stops the waves dissipating it with less energy on the maritime coast.
