Answer:

Flash flooding or ongoing heavy rain can be precursors to landslides, mud/debris flows, and even rockfalls. ... Rockfalls are often caused by erosion of earth around larger rocks that then become loose and fall. Earthquakes can also lead to landslides and rockfalls.

At 45 degrees s latitude, the angle of the noon sun is lowest and the length of daylight is shortest on:
Marat540 [252]

Answer;

- June 21

At 45 degrees latitude, the angle of the noon sun is lowest and the length of daylight is shortest on June 21.

Explanation;

-On June 21 you will note that the Northern Hemisphere is pitched toward the Sun. This means that the Sun's vertical ray is striking the Earth at the Tropic of Cancer (23.5 degrees N).

-Days tend to get longer in the northern hemisphere from December 21 to June 21, and then grow shorter from June 21 to December 21.  The June solstice is the summer solstice in the Northern Hemisphere and the winter solstice in the Southern Hemisphere. The date varies between June 20 and June 22, depending on the year, and the local time zone.

The mass of a single gold atom is 3.27×10-22 grams. how many gold atoms would there be in 236 milligrams of gold?
blsea [12.9K]

The amount of gold atoms could be calculated by dividing the total weight of the gold with the mass of a single gold atom. Just convert the given weight to grams then divide it with 3.27x10^-22 grams. The answer would be 7.22x10^20.

At what distance will a 80 W lightbulb have the same apparent brightness as a 120 W bulb viewed from a distance of 40 m
liq [111]

Answer:

32.6mm

Explanation:

Using area of a sphere(bulb) = 4πr²

So A is proportional to radius²

So the Energy will be proportional to r²

But 120/80 = 1.5 is the energy factor so

Using

1.5/d² = 1/r²

1.5/40²= 1/r^2

r = √( 40²/ 1.5)

r = 32.6m

An engineer is designing a runway for a witch. Several brooms will use the runway and the engineer must design it so that it is
jonny [76]

Answer:

1170 m

Explanation:

Given:

a = 3.30 m/s²

v₀ = 0 m/s

v = 88.0 m/s

x₀ = 0 m

Find:

x

v² = v₀² + 2a(x - x₀)

(88.0 m/s)² = (0 m/s)² + 2 (3.30 m/s²) (x - 0 m)

x = 1173.33 m

Rounded to 3 sig-figs, the runway must be at least 1170 meters long.

A hiker hikes south 0.7 km. she then hikes east 2.4 km. what is the magnitude and unit of her displacement from her initial posi
Usimov [2.4K]
If you illustrate the problem, you will somewhat come up with the figure shown. The missing value is the hypotenuse of the right triangle. Using the pythagorean theorems, the value is determined to be

x = √(0.7^2 + 2.4^2)
x = 2.5 km

2.5 km is the magnitude of the distance. If you want to incorporate the displacement, the answer is reported as 2.5 km, southeast. The direction is determined from the starting point to the endpoint.
