Answer:

uniform in the horizontal direction and travel as a unit.

Explanation:

Air masses are large portions of air, which can reach 1000 miles or more in size. They have constant internal conditions such as temperature and humidity, in addition they are uniform in the horizontal direction and travel as a unit. From the moment they move, they lose temperature and weight and start to lose strength and impact. Generally, this displacement occurs when the air mass leaves the region of high pressure to a region of low pressure.

What is the impact of coriolis force and latent heat on the development of hagibis​
lbvjy [14]

Explanation:

impacts them greatly. We wouldn’t even have tropical cyclones if it weren’t for the Coriolis Effect.

Tropical cyclones begin as masses of disorganized showers and storms in/near the Tropics. As wind speeds pick up in these shower/storm masses, a circulation begins to form. The circulation only forms because of the Coriolis Effect, which causes cyclones to spin counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere (and clockwise in the Southern).

As the system matures, winds around its central eye strengthen. Rain becomes more intense. If the storm makes landfall, you might hear a TV meteorologist warn viewers about the “northeastern quadrant” or the “eastern side” of the storm.

This is because the Coriolis force adds momentum and energy to that side of the storm. On the east side of a low pressure system (in the Northern Hemisphere), your wind (which is caused by the pressure gradient force, or differences in air pressure) will be helped along by the Coriolis force. On the west side, the Coriolis force acts against the wind.

Thus, the Coriolis effect ensures that the worst part of most tropical cyclones is the east side, and particularly the northeastern quadrant. This is where the worst winds and heaviest rain will be located.

Whats the difference between possibillism and determinism?
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

Environmental determinism is the idea that the physical environment, climate and geographical conditions shape human thoughts, actions and behavior. Possibilism refers to the theory that the environment imposes certain constraints or limitations, but culture is otherwise determined by human actions.

Which country was the site of ethnic tensions and a civil war between the Hutu and Tutsi in the 1990's?
labwork [276]
Rwanda (4) was the site of ethnic tensions and a civil war between the Hutu and the Tutsi in the 1990s. In early to middle 1994, the Hutu ethnic majority murdered nearly 800 thousand people, mostly from the Tutsi minority group. The act of attempting to annihilate an ethnic minority by an ethnic majority is known as a genocide. In Rwanda, the genocide began in the capital city of Kigali and spread throughout the rest of the country with lightening speed. It was a brutal and violent period in Rwandan history.
