1. Thunder is caused by the rapid expansion of the air surrounding the path of a lightning bolt. ... From the clouds to a nearby tree or roof, a lightning bolt takes only a few thousandths of a second to split through the air. The loud thunder that follows the lightning bolt is commonly said to come from the bolt itself.
2. thunderstorms mostly occur in rainforests. Some of the most powerful thunderstorms happen in the United States of America.
3. Cumulonimbus is a dense, towering vertical cloud, forming from water vapor carried by powerful upward air currents. If observed during a storm, these clouds may be referred to as thunderheads. Cumulonimbus can form alone, in clusters, or along cold front squall lines.
4. The air cools as it rises. Water vapor condenses and forms cumulus clouds. When condensation occurs, heat (latent heat/energy ) is released and helps the thunderstorm grow. At some point, condensation high in the cloud (now in the form of water droplets and ice) falls to the ground as rain.
Answer:
- <u>The hours are the independent variable.</u>
- <u>The wages/wk earned are ( $11/hr )x( hrs worked )
. This is the dependent variable ( depends on hours worked )
.</u>
- <u>The domain is 0 to 30
</u>
- <u>The range is 0 to 330
</u>
Explanation:
<em>The hours are the independent variable and should be plotted on the x-axis
.</em>
<em>The wages/wk earned are ( $11/hr )x( hrs worked )
. This is the dependent variable ( depends on hours worked ) and should be plotted on the y-axis
</em>
<em>---------------
</em>
<em>Let +W+ = wages/wk earned
</em>
<em></em>
<em>Let +h+ = hours/wk worked
</em>
<em>The equation is:
</em>
<em>+W+=+11h+
</em>
<em>The domain is 0 to 30
</em>
<em>( no hrs worked to 30 hrs worked )
</em>
<em>The range is 0 to 330
</em>
<em>( no wages eared to +11%2A30+=+330+ earned )</em>
Answer:
Release energy for plant growth
Explanation:
Photosynthesis equation:
6CO2+6H2O -> C6H12O6+O2
The plant is using that CO2 (carbon dioxide) and H2O (water) to build its structure, grow, develop itself!
