Answer:
air humidity
Explanation:
Air parcel is a blob of air which moves in the atmosphere. For stability, if the air parcel is displaced vertically then it returns to the original position.
The most important points to know of the rising air parcel are the air humidity of the air, the temperature of the air and its dew point. These are the critical information to determine the stability of the air.
The air parcel rises buoyantly as it gets warmer than the surrounding environment.
Before comparing and contrasting these layers of Earth, we first define what lithosphere and asthenosphere are.
Lithosphere primarily consists of the outermost layers of the Earth, which are the crust and the uppermost portion of the mantle. Simply, the ground you stepped on is part of earth's lithosphere. On the other hand, asthenosphere comprises of hot and partially molten rock just located at the upper portion of the mantle but just below the lithosphere. Both have similarities and differences, which are as follows:
SIMILARITIES:
- Both are the passageways of earthquakes P-waves (Primary waves) just before it reaches the earth's surface.
- Both are made of the same material (Silicon oxide rocks, which are rich in iron and magnesium)
DIFFERENCES:
- Rocks in lithosphere can bend (it deforms, resulting in fault formations), however, rocks in the asthenosphere, not only bend but also flow (plastic in nature).
- Lithosphere has relatively low temperatures compared to asthenosphere.
- Due to its depth, pressure against rocks in asthenosphere is comparatively higher compared to lithosphere.
Answer:

Answer:
= 625 nm
Explanation:
We now that for
for maximum intensity(bright fringe) d sinθ=nλ n=0,1,2,....
d= distance between the slits, λ= wavelength of incident ray
for small θ, sinθ≈tanθ= y/D where y is the distance on screen and D is the distance b/w screen and slits.
Given
d=1.19 mm, y=4.97 cm, and, n=10, D=9.47 m
applying formula
λ= (d*y)/(D*n)
putting values we get
on solving we get
= 625 nm
Answer:
Resultant = 13km
Direction = 67.38° East of North
Explanation:
Given the following :
5km North ; 12km East
Resultant Displacement (r) :
r² = 5² + 12²
r² = 25 + 144
r² = 169
r = √169
r = 13
Direction:
Tangent = opposite / Adjacent
Tanθ = opposite / Adjacent
Opposite = 12 ; adjacent = 5
Tanθ = (12/5)
Tanθ = 2.4
θ = tan^-1(2.4)
θ = 67.38° east of north
