Answer:

Latitude

Elevation

Prevailing winds

Near by water body.

Explanation:

There are many factors which affects climate of a region, some of them are latitude, elevation, prevailing wind, and nearby water body. If elevation of a place is high such as places on young mountains they are cold whereas places closer to ocean or sea have normal climate through out the year. If a place is closer to pole it have very log days and nights.

what is the average speed of (a) a car that travels 400m in 20s. and (b) an athlete who runs 1500m in 4 minutes

zmey [24]

Answer:

a) 20 m/s

b) 37.5 m)s

Explanation:

Average speed = total distance ÷ total time

=> (a) average speed of a car that travels 400m in 20s

= 400/20 = 20 m/s

& (b) average speed of an athlete who runs 1500m in 4 minutes (or 4×60=240 seconds)

= 1500/240 = 37.5 m/s

6. An earthquake releases two types of traveling seismic waves, called transverse and longitudinal waves. The average speed of t

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

The distance away the center of the earthquake is 1083.24 km.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of transverse wave = 9.1\ km/s

Speed of longitudinal wave = 5.7 km/s

Time = 71 sec

We need to calculate the distance of transverse wave

Using formula of distance

$d=v\times t$

$d=9.1\times t$ ....(I)

The distance of longitudinal wave

$d=5.7\times (t+71)$ ....(II)

From the first equation

$t=\dfrac{d}{9.1}$

Put the value of t in equation (II)

$d =5.7\times(\dfrac{d}{9.1}+71)$

$\dfrac{9.1d-5.7d}{9.1}=71\times5.7$

$d0.3736=404.7$

$d =1083.24\ km$

Hence, The distance away the center of the earthquake is 1083.24 km.
