Answer:

Explanation:

Latitude is an angle (defined below) which ranges from 0° at the Equator to 90° (North or South) at the poles. Lines of constant latitude, or parallels, run east–west as circles parallel to the equator. Latitude is used together with longitude to specify the precise location of features on the surface of the Earth.

To avoid risks associated with tornadoes, lightning, and hurricanes, in the United States you should steer clear of

Fynjy0 [20]

To avoid risks associated with tornadoes, lightning and hurricanes in the United States, you should steer clear of Florida. Hurricanes and Tornados are very destructive in nature and can wreck havoc over any area it passes through. Hurricanes can still be predicted but it is impossible to predict a tornado. Both hurricane and tornado are accompanied by severe lightning. Florida is a state in the US that is well known throughout the world for hurricanes and tornados. So it is always better to avoid such places.

T object]user: an extended period when temperatures are well below average is known as a/an

Aleksandr [31]

The answer is A.
Ice Age or glacial period refers to the extended period of well-below-average temperatures. It is a prolonged period where reduction in the temperature of the Earth’s surface and atmosphere are caused by the expansion of continental and polar ice sheets and alpine glaciers. Usually this phenomenon occurs in the northern and southern hemispheres where extensive ice sheets are seen most.

<span>At present we are now experiencing an interglacial period after the Holocene Ice age</span>

23: List the different types of radiation according to wavelength? Please put them in the order of longest wavelength to shortes

Butoxors [25]

Explanation:

Radiation means ‘energy that is transported from one spot to another without the need of direct contact between the two locations’, Light in each carries a different amount of energy, this is what we call electromagnetic radiation or electromagnetic waves. Gamma rays are the most energetic, and radio is the least.

<em>In order from longest to shortes wavelenghts we have:</em>

Radio waves: they are made by various types of transmitters, given off by stars, sparks, and lightning, they have the lowest frequencies (longest wavelenghts) in the electromagnetic spectrum and are used mainly for communications.

Microwaves: they are extremely high-frequency radio waves (Their wavelength is usually a couple of centimeters) made by various types of transmitters.

Infra-red waves: they are just below visible red light in the electromagnetic spectrum, they're given off by hot objects.
Visible lights is the tiny part of the electromagnetic spectrum our eyes can detect.
Ultra-Violet: this light is given off by the Sun in large quantities. We call it "UV" for short and can also be used to kill microbes.
X-rays: they are very high-frequency waves that carry a lot of energy. They will pass through most substances, and this makes them useful in medicine and industry to see inside things.
Gamma rays: they are given off by stars and by some radioactive substances. They are extremely high-frequency waves (the shortest wavelength) and carry a large amount of energy. They pass through most materials.

In the image, I annexed you can see the electromagnetic spectrum with the type of radiations from the shortest to the longest wavelengths.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
