Geography
1 answer:
murzikaleks [220]3 years ago

Answer:

The orbit of the Earth

Explanation:

It is widely speculated that orbital mechanics were responsible for the period of lushness that the Sahara desert and Northern Africa lived only 6000 years ago. Due to the changes in the Earth's orbit around the Sun, it is thought that the monsoon effect (season variations in wind patterns that produce a heavy rainy season) was more pronounced across the northern latitudes and resulted in the Sahara being much wetter than it is today.

kenny6666 [7]

<u>Tropic of Cancer </u>is the line of latitude at 23.22 S

Explanation:

This is the southernmost, of the equator latitude at which the sun can appear overhead. Equivalent to this latitude to the north of the equator is the <u>Tropic of Cancer</u>. Higher latitudes never really have overhead sun. The sun is overhead the <u>Tropic of Capricorn</u> on 21st December.

As the earth revolves around the sun, the sun shifts positions – relative to the latitudes-, due to the shift of orientation of the earth with respect to the sun. The sun is overhead the tropic of cancer on 21st June and is overhead the equator on 20th March and 22nd September.

leva [86]

In ridge push and slab pull, gravity is acting on the plate to cause the movement.
