Describe each of the five themes of geography

1 answer:

8 0

1..Location: reference of where a place is on earth, absolute location is latitude, longitude or an exact address, relative location is describing a place relative to other places

2..Place: physical and human characteristics of the location

3..Human-environment interaction: how humans and the environment affect each other

4..Movement: discussing the events of anything that moves across the earth (i.e. immigration of people)

5..Regions: characterized by a unified characteristic
Formal Regions are official boundaries like cities or states
Functional Regions are defined by connections
Vernacular Regions are perceived regions such as the south or the midwest!

(hope this helps)

If the star Alpha Centauri were moved to a distance 10 times farther than it is now, its parallax angle would ______

Virty [35]

Answer: get smaller

Explanation:

Parallax is the angle formed by the observation lines to a very distant object from two separated points.

The procedure to measure this distance in the case of a star, is based on observing it from two different places far away from each other, and then through trigonometry reach to the following relationship:

$d=\frac{r}{sin \theta}$ (1)

Where:

$d$ is the distance from Earth to the observed star (in Parsecs $1pc=206265AU$ )

$r$ is the earth-sun distance that is equivalent to an astronomical unit (1AU=150000000km)

$\theta$ is the angle of the parallax (in arc seconds $''$ )

Now, the distance to an object (measured in parsecs) is the reciprocal of the parallax (measured in arcseconds). Then, in its simplified mode, the stellar parallax is given by the following equation:

$d=\frac{1}{\theta}$ (2)

As we can see, there is an inverse relation between the distance $d$ and the parallax $\theta$ :

$\theta=\frac{1}{d}$ (3)

Hence, if the distance is increased by a factor of 10, the parallax is decreased by a factor of 10.

In other words, the parallax angle gets smaller.

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

spring

Explanation:

A spring forms where the water table intersects the ground surface. Sometimes, the ground surface is lower than the water table. This forms a natural water flow as a spring.

An artesian well occurs where pressurized formations containing ground water is found.
Unsaturated zone is not filled with ground water.
An aquifer is a porous and permeable formation that can store ground water
