Heat as hot air rises thus causing a disruption in the flow of air
Answer:
Conditions at the base of a glacier increase glacial flow velocity -
Steeper slope
Smooth rock / glacier contact
Colder basal water temperature.
Explanation:
Steeper slope and smooth rock/glacier contact will increase glacial flow velocity because higher the steepness higher the velocity and smoothness will apply less friction.
Due to decrease in ice thickness the load at the bottom of the glacier will decrease, and we know that the glacier flows under the load of itself, so lesser the load lesser the velocity.
Colder basal water temperature will generate less amount of melt as compared to warmer basal water temperature, so in colder condition, glacial flow velocity will not be increased.
Oil reserves in Kuwait make up 8% of the oil reserves in the world. Kuwait is OPEC's third largest oil producer and claims to hold approximately 104 billion barrels (16.5×109 m3).
b. At higher elevations, it would take longer to hard boil an egg, because there is a lower boiling point, so the egg is boiling in water at a lower temperature.
Explanation:
The best answer from the given choices is that, at higher elevations, it would take longer to hard boil an egg, because there is a lower boiling point,
so the egg is boiling in water at a lower temperature.
- Boiling point is simply the pressure at which the vapor pressure of a liquid is equal to the atmospheric pressure.
- At higher elevations, the atmospheric pressure is low and it would require little heat to boil water and turn it into vapor.
- To hard boil an egg, we need elevated temperature.
- But since water to use hard boiling has an unusually low temperature, it becomes more difficult since much of the water turns into vapor.
- This is why at higher elevations, it takes a longer time to hard boil eggs.
