A hurricane is just like any other low-pressure system.

But it gets bigger, and stronger, and picks up a lot of rain, by passing over warm, tropical ocean water.

If anything like climate change or hot fish were to come along and make that water warmer, then there would be more energy for the low pressure system to absorb from the warmer water. Then it would get even bigger and stronger, and it would pick up even more rain on its way over.

Also, normal-size low-pressure systems over the ocean that could never become tropical storms or hurricanes before, COULD do it now that the ocean is warmer. (Notice how this year, 2020, there have been so many hurricanes and tropical storms that NOAA ran out of names for them, and had to start using Greek letters. This has only happened once before.)

Climate change may affect tropical cyclones in a variety of ways: an intensification of rainfall and wind speed, a decrease in overall frequency, an increase in frequency of very intense storms and a poleward extension of where the cyclones reach maximum intensity are among the possible consequences

If Anya decides to make the star twice as massive, and not change the length of any crossbar or the location of any object, what

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

She will make the mass of the smiley face twice as massive in order to keep the mobile in perfect balance.

Explanation:

mass of an object is directly proportional to the cube of its length. In this case the length is constant, the mass will also be constant for the smiley face, so that the mobile will be kept in perfect balance.

Therefore, If Anya decides to make the star twice as massive, and not change the length of any crossbar or the location of any object, she will make the mass of the smiley face twice as massive in order to keep the mobile in perfect balance.

Which is not a source of electrical energy in the United States

xenn [34]

Every practical source of energy that you can imagine, as well as a few impractical ones, are used somewhere in the USA.

From whale oil in Alaska, to nuclear energy, to coal, petroleum, natural gas, solar energy, wind energy, and biomass.

Oh ! Geothermal energy and tidal energy aren't too popular, but I'll bet if you looked, you'd find these used too, SOMEwhere in the 50 states.
