1. In a hot-spot volcanic island chain, such as the Hawaiian Islands, all islands possess active volcanoes simultaneously and th
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

<u>True</u>.

Explanation:

  • As the volcanic islands of Hawaii are still considered to be in an active zone, as the Hawaiian islands are believed to be formed on the hotspot of eruptions ie. the active plate boundaries from below the surface these tend to move westwards direction from the main island of Hawaii.
  • As we go from east to west the chain of rocks gets older and then forms a ring-shaped pattern hence called the ring of fire. Thus there is a great risk of volcanic hazard as these are fault lines being associated with high magnitude tectonic earthquakes.
  • They can have a seriously damaging impact upon other islands as well and this considered to be highly hazardous. As various vents and mounds of volcanic nature lie within the oceans of the Pacific plate.

Which sequence of events affecting moist air within Earth’s atmosphere causes cloud formation?
IrinaVladis [17]

The correct answer is - (1) rising expanding cooling condensation.

At first there's the evaporation of water, since the water vapor is less dense than the air it rises up and starts to expend as it goes further upwards in the atmosphere. Once it reaches the upper layers of the troposphere than the cooling process starts because the temperature is decreasing with the altitude. Because of the cooling the process of condensation will start taking place and thus the formation of clouds were the water vapor returns to liquid form and creates rain. The cycle repeats its self all the time.
