Answer:

The pressure at the top of Pikes Peak is much lower (only about 60% that at sea level).

Explanation:

Atmospheric pressure decreases with altitude. The higher a location is in the mountains, the lower the atmospheric pressure will be. Pressure continues to decrease until the boundary with outer space where there is no air pressure at all and the atmosphere officially ends. Mountain climbers that scale the highest peaks in the world must bring oxygen tanks because of the scarcity of air at the roof of the world.

Answer:

c) The planetoid is being attracted toward another massive object.

Explanation:

We can rule out a, the planetoid is travelling through space, friction is effectively nonexistent. B can be ruled out as well, as there is nothing in space that could naturally repel a planetoid. D is also implausible, as the question says the planetoid slows down for a certain period in its orbit, suggesting this behavior is repeated. Option c is incredibly likely, as the planetoid is far from the sun, a large mass, possibly far smaller than the sun but also far closer to the planetoid, could have the effect described in the question.

Drupady [299]
<span>The correct answer is : C. Botswana.</span>

Botswana is a topographically flat country wherein 70 percent of its territory is the Kalahari Desert. Because Botswana is bordered by South Africa to the south and southeast area of its territory and by Namibia to the west and north territory, minimal land areas of both countries are included in the 900,000 square kilometer land area of Kalahari Desert. Kalahari Desert also encroached on some parts of Zambia but no part of Mozambique.
