Today Russia has tried to overcome the
Vesna [10]

Answer:

Russia has built the Trans-Siberian Railroad to overcome the Friction of Space.

Explanation:

Russia is the largest country in the world, and on top of it, its territory is stretched by longitude which creates a situation where from the easternmost to westernmost point the distance is incredibly big. As both the eastern and western coasts are strategically very important for Russia, it is crucial that they are connected with infrastructure that will enable relatively fast and cheap transportation and traveling.

The solution came in the form of the Trans-Siberian Railroad. This is the longest railroad in the world, starting from Saint Petersburg, diverging into two lines, one going to Tyumen but before that at Yekaterinburg turning to merge with the other line at Chelyabinsk, continuing to Chita where it diverges again with one line going through Khabarovsk to Vladivostok while the other moving slightly through Mongolia, Harbin in China, and ending in Vladivostok.

Explain how storms are formed due to rising temperatures and other changes in
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

Hurricanes need a lot of heat to form, which is why they usually occur over tropical seas (at least 26°C).

The sun is close to the equator, providing energy to heat the ocean.

The warm ocean heats the air above it causing it to rise rapidly.

Water evaporates quickly from the hot surface of the ocean, so the rising air contains great amounts of water vapour.

The rising air starts to spin (anti-clockwise in the northern hemisphere)

The centre of the storm - the eye - is calm.

As the air rises it cools, condenses and forms towering cumulonimbus clouds.

The rapidly rising air creates an area of intense low pressure. The low pressure sucks in air, causing very strong winds.

Once the storm moves over land it starts to lose energy and fades.
