Answer:

The Great Plains are located in the center of the United States. They extend from Canada to Mexico and span the area between the Appalachian Mountains and the Rocky Mountains. The Great Plains is the largest grassland in the United States, stretching over ten states. The region is made up of long stretches of flatlands and rolling hills. It is an important region for agriculture because of its fertile soil, flatland, and proximity to freshwater. The region is near the Mississippi River and the river’s many tributaries, which supply farmers with the water needed for their crops. The flat, fertile land allows farmers to plant large fields that expand over great distances and to grow a variety of crops throughout the region.

The distance from Alexandria to Syene is about 500 miles. On the summer solstice the sun is directly overhead at noon in Syene.

svp [43]

Answer:

Earth circumference is 25000 miles

correct option is 25,000 miles

Explanation:

we have given here Alexandria to Syene distance = 500 miles

the sun is 1/50th of the circumference of the sky (about 7°)

as we know that Earth circumference done by astronomer Eratosthenes in 240 B.C

He observe on a particular time of day ( in noon) during the summer solstice

and there was no shadow in Syene in Egypt so This was verified that the sun must be directly on overhead and not at an angle to the surface of the city at that time

In Alexandria he measured the position of sun at the same time and found it to be nearly (1/50)th of a complete circle

it would be 7.2 degree (when we do $\frac{360}{50}$ = 7.2)

so 2 reference points being 2 cities for the sun

all measure circumference = the distance between these two cities × 50

and we have given 500 miles

Earth circumference = 500 × 50

Earth circumference is 25000 miles

correct option is 25,000 miles

How does monoculture cause drought

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

Monocropping is the practice of growing the same crop on the same plot of land, year after year. This practice depletes the soil of nutrients (making the soil less productive over time), reduces organic matter in soil and can cause significant erosion which can most probably cause drought.
