Answer:

Trade, Westerlies, Polar is the right order of the prevailing winds from the Equator toward the North Pole.

Explanation:

A is not correct because the polar winds are not the closest to the Equator.

B is not correct because all of the three prevailing wind patterns are not in their place.

C is correct because the Trade winds dominate the Equatorial region, the Westerlies dominate the mid-latitudes, and the Polar ones dominate the North Pole and its surroundings.

D is not correct because the Polar winds and Westerlies have their places switched.

Answer:

Cold, High Pressure Air + Hot, Low Pressure Air = Storms

Explanation:

A is not correct because hot temperatures occur when the air is hot and the air pressure low.

B is not correct because cold temperatures occur when the air is cold and the air pressure is high.

C is correct because when these two collide we have the occurrence of very strong winds, condensation of a huge amount of water, or in other words storms.

D is not correct despite the occurrence of wind, as there are other things that happen as well.

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

C. Low-frequency seismic waves cause more ground acceleration than do high-frequency waves.

Explanation:

Low-frequency seismic waves covers more distance as compared to high-frequency waves because high frequency wave provide more energy to the medium while low frequency waves supply less energy to the medium so which makes the wave to go further. Lower frequency waves "penetrate" into a materials better, because energy particles having lower frequencies having less energy and they pass through the medium without interacting with the matter.

As atmospheric temperature rises, more arctic sea ice melts. The sea-ice reduction in turn decreases the surface albedo and caus
kykrilka [37]

Snow and ice cover less of the Earth's surface as a result of melting due to an increase in global temperature, which also lowers albedo. More energy is absorbed due to the decrease in albedo, which leads to increased warmth and melting.

Global temperature is significantly influenced by the equilibrium between the amount of solar energy reflected and absorbed by the Earth's surface. Snow, ice, and water on Earth have different capacities to reflect and absorb solar energy, and melting polar ice triggers a positive feedback loop that hastens global warming.

Pollution, including soot, decreases the albedo of ice and speeds up melting.
