All of the options are correct.

Explanation:

A high Sun angle on the sky means several things. The sunlight is falling at a direct or nearly direct angle, meaning that the concentration of sunlight is higher on smaller area. As a result, there s more heating because of the high concentration of sunlight. The Sun is high on the sky throughout the year, making this areas be very warm throughout the whole year.

  • The areas that have the Sun high on the sky and the sunlight falling at direct or almost direct angle are located between 23.5 degrees North and 23.5 degrees South.
  • Every spot between these two latitudes gets direct sunlight twice a year, except the latitudes of 23.5 degrees, both north and south.
  • This happens because of the tilting of the Earth, so when the Northern Hemisphere tilts toward the Sun the latitudes between the Equator and 23.5 N are getting direct sunlight, while in the opposite part of the year it is the latitudes between the Equator and 23.5 S that get direct sunlight
  • Because the sunlight is strong throughout all of the year in these areas, we have the warmest climates there.

If Michigan had 24 deaths from extreme cold in the last 20 years, what is the risk they will have a death this year? (very unlik
3241004551 [841]

Answer: Very Likely

Explanation:

Michigan has had 24 deaths from extreme cold in the last 20 years.

This is a rate of:

= 24 / 20

= 1.2 deaths per year.

For something to be considered ''very likely'' to occur, the chances of that thing occurring needs to be above 90%.

Going by the deaths per year, the probability is more than 90% at 120%. It is therefore very likely that there will be a death from extreme cold.

Can someone please explain why there are bands of winds, some moving east and some moving west? (40 POINTS WILL MARK BRAINLIEST
Fofino [41]
Weather is a complex phenomena. in order to solve engineering problems such as the prediction of weather, we utilize degrees of freedom (DoF)... weather is one of the many elements that need millions of DoF and still cannot accurately predict it. mainly it's a vector analysis much akin to finite element analysis where each micro degree of freedom or say molecule of air is represented as one point interconnected in a web of points and each point's properties are altered relatively (similar principles how autonomous mini drones coordinate synchoronously) to each other.

many factors are considered: pressure, temperature and density of the air for sure. friction factors. drag factors. rotation of the earth. and that's the natural phenomena. include the heat given off the land, the radiation from the sun, airplanes, people, etc... its highly complicated. having done a weather station project, it's fair to say that there isn't a simple answer to your simple question. we measured wind direction, wind current, temp and humidity, visibility, pressure, etc... and we couls measure these things, but can't really say why say the wind went east or west... except tell you that its because of millions of degrees of freedom interacting with each other simultaneously and some things like weather are just like that.
