Choose the most correct scenario for a sunny summer afternoon at a parking lot.

Geography
1 answer:
vitfil [10]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

D. Solar radiation heats the asphalt; the air immediately above is heated through conduction; the warm air rises in free convection.

Explanation:

As the parking lot is exposed to the sun, on a sunny afternoon, we can consider that the sun is radiating with high intensity in this environment, causing the asphalt to be strongly heated. In this case, the air that comes in contact with the asphalt ends up being heated, because the heat of the asphalt is transmitted by the air through the process called conduction, which is the heat transmitted by the agitation of the molecules.

The heated air becomes less dense, that is, it becomes lighter and this causes it to rise, while the cold air is more dense and descends, coming into contact with hot asphalt and also heating up. In that case, a heat transfer called convection occurred.

Which South American country is the largest consumer of plant-based biofuels in the world?
Brrunno [24]

The correct answer is - C. Brazil.

Brazil has a large and ever-growing economy. This means that it needs more and more resources in order for the economy to go forward and develop. As a country that has the biggest amount of available biomass in the world, Brazil has been trying to fix this problem with the production of bio-fuels, and in fact, it is the second biggest producer in the world of bio-fuels. But only that it a big producer, Brazil is actually using this bio-fuel, and it is a trend that is becoming bigger and bigger. So Brazil is using its own bio-fuel, but also imports a lot of it, thus being the largest consumer/user of bio-fuel in the world.
