The correct answer is: <span>landslides or mudslides</span>.
Lava Flows are actually not that dangerous: Lava is very often slow and could even be outrun - so not too many people die due to lava flows.
On the other hand, landslides and mudslides are very catastrophic and can wipe entire villages.
Answer:
(b) the night would be half as long
Explanation:
- As the earth, if rotated twice as fast than it does now and the sun stayed the same then the night would be as half as long as the rotation of the planet on its axis would be double to that of its and 12 hours of night would be as long as the speed of the axial rotation.
Explanation:
Effects of Wind
on forecasted temperatures
At night, the earth's surface cools by radiating heat off to space. The strongest cooling takes place right near the surface while temperatures at roughly 3000 feet are actually warmer than those at the surface. On a windy night, some of the warmer air aloft is mixed down towards the surface. This occurs because the winds are faster aloft than at the surface.
To visualize this, place one hand over the other about six inches apart. The bottom hand represents the air near the surface and the top hand represents the warmer wind higher up. Move the bottom hand slowly and the upper hand faster (to indicate the faster winds aloft). The faster air above and slower air below causes the air to overturn or spin (as in the picture below). This overturning motion is how warmer air from above is transported downward on windy nights.
