The way to tell them apart from each other lies in the speed of the wind. When the speed of the wind is between 39 mph to 73 mph, the tropical depression developed (low pressured areas in the ocean that have the power to grow stronger) is classified as a tropical storm.  Hurricanes are more intense and are formed over oceans with the wind speed reaching at least 74 mph.  Hurricanes also have a noticeable eye in the center of the storm and tropical storms don't have any at all. Basically, a hurricane is a more intense version of a tropical storm that appear to be smaller compared to a tropical storm.

Hope I answered this correctly and hope it helps! :)

If the contour interval is 50 meters on this map, then the line between 500 and 600 has an elevation of
Papessa [141]

Answer:

The line between 500 and 600 has an elevation of 550.

Explanation:

The contour interval represents the vertical difference between the contour lines. This is for better orientation on the map, easier calculating of elevation, as well as for an easier understanding of the relief. In this case, we have lines that are set at 500 meters and 600 meters of elevation, but there is also a line between them.

The line between, or rather the contour line between them, can easily be found out as to what elevation it is set on. We have information that the contour interval on the map is 50 meters, so we can do this either by adding 50 on 500 or minus 50 out of 600, anyway we will get the correct result.

500 + 50 = 550

600 - 50 = 550

We get a result of 550, meaning that the contour line between 500 meters and 600 meters is set at 550 meters of elevation.

Which of the following cities has a climate characterized by continentality
Vesna [10]

Answer:

3) Bismarck, North Dakota

Explanation:

The city that has a climate characterized by confidentiality is Bismarck, North Dakota. This city is relatively close to the center of the US, thus it is far away from the large bodies of water. It is in the mid-latitudes, so it doesn't have too much of an influence from the Arctic or from the tropics. Bismarck has just about enough rainfall so that it is not semi-arid, though it is on the borderline. The summers tend to be dry and hot, while the winters tend to be very cold and snowy.
