Geography

Answer: Increase in the extent of the sea.

Explanation: It is an invasion of the sea to the coasts caused by geological phenomena and that generally brings with it marine sedimentations. This action causes the continental lands to sink and may even be below sea level. This geological event can be long lasting and the sediments left on the coast by this elevation of the sea can be identified by the sedimentary column, who describes the location of these rocky sediments.

Why do mapmakers have to choose between showing the correct land shapes and distances on the earth?
Olin [163]

The mapmakers have to make this choice because of the shape of our planet and because there is still not a method as to how to have both the land shapes and distances to be precise at the same time.

The shape of the earth is the factor that is not allowing (at least for now) that we have both correct land shapes and precise distances on the maps of the Earth. Because the Earth has a rounded shape, as we move further away from the Equator, the shapes are deforming more and more, or rather they are stretching more and more which makes them appear much bigger than they actually are, thus giving us an unrealistic picture of the size of some of the places on our planet.

Why is it better to have air conditioning units closer to the ceiling when living in Florida?
torisob [31]
It's better to have air conditioning units near the ceiling regardless of where you live. Since cool air sinks, air conditioning units are usually near the ceiling so the cool air can spread around the room more. Hope this helped =)

A series of colored rings may appear surrounding the shadow of an aircraft flying above a cloud with tiny water droplets. Those
DaniilM [7]

Answer: TRUE.

Explanation: "Glory" is an optical phenomenon caused by water droplets, consisting of concentric rings and somewhat similar to a rainbow.

The glory consists of one or more concentric, successively dimmer rings, each of which is red on the outside and bluish towards the centre.

In order to see a glory, therefore, the clouds or fog causing it must be located below the observer, in a straight line with the Sun/Moon and the observer's eye.

Colored rings appearing surrounding the shadow of an aircraft flying above a cloud is sometimes called The Glory of the Pilot.
