Answer:

False.

Explanation:

Not all deserts located near the equator. While explaining desert, we think of a hot, dry and empty landscape, which does not justify the reason. Some deserts are known for hot during day time while others for their cold winters. Deserts are divide according to their region and are found within the line of Tropic of Cancer and Capricorn like Gobi desert, Sahara, Kalahari etc.

What role does gravity play in a hydroelectric dam's ability to produce energy?
adoni [48]

Explanation:

Gravity plays a very important role in the production of electrical energy in a dam.

The water used in a hydroelectric power plant is driven under the pull of gravity.

Energy conversion which leads to the production of electricity is from potential energy more specifically, gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy of the electricity.

Potential energy is the energy due to the position of a body.

Water in a dam, is passed through a channel in dam. The channel is held high up, as the water falls through the channel, it impacts and drives a turbine along its path.

This in turn is connected to a generator that produces electricity.

Gravity increases with the mass of the water and causes the gravitational potential energy of the water to drive the turbines.

The ocean has an incredible array of renewable and nonrenewable resources. Considering humankind’s past record of harvesting oce
icang [17]
Many nations use oceans to drill for oil which is a non-renewable resource that often damages the ocean and can cause major problems for the biome. This means also that more oil is used then so that's bad for the environment too. Sometimes there is an oil spill which kills many animals and plants that live in the ocean and cause a natural disaster. Even renewable resources from oceans like using water and dams to make electricity can be problematic because the water gets polluted. It would be best if countries switched to things like solar energy and wind energy.
