Perchè la terra è sferica?

Answer:

Causa La Terra è abbastanza massiccia che l'attrazione della gravità mantiene la sua forma approssimativamente sferica. La maggior parte della sua deviazione dagli steli sferici deriva dalla forza centrifuga causata dalla rotazione attorno al suo asse nord-sud. Questa forza deforma la sfera in un ellissoide oblato.

Answer:

Si vemos un barco acercándose desde la orilla del mar, nos damos cuenta de que los mástiles, las chimeneas y las partes más altas de la cubierta aparecen primero, y luego, por último, el casco. Lo contrario ocurre si el barco se aleja. Todo esto no sucedería si la Tierra fuera plana.

Per un osservatore che si arrampica lungo i fianchi di una montagna l'orizzonte, pur rimanendo circolare, s'ingrandisce via via che aumenta la quota. Tra le infinite figure geometriche solo la sfera ha la proprietà di apparire circolare, da qualsiasi punto la si osservi.

Nello stesso istante il cielo diurno o notturno appare diverso ad osservatori posti in luoghi diversi della Terra. In particolare, se ci muoviamo verso Sud, le stelle meridionali ci appaiono via via più alte e sempre più basse quelle settentrionali. Viceversa se ci muoviamo verso Nord.

Se due osservatori, in luoghi a diversa longitudine, osservano contemporaneamente il cielo, quello che si trova ad Est vede le stesse stelle in posizione più occidentale dell'altro e viceversa per l'osservatore che si trova più ad Ovest.

Durante le eclissi di Luna l'ombra della Terra, proiettata sul nostro satellite, è circolare. Solo un corpo sferico, comunque illuminato, può proiettare un'ombra sempre circolare.

Anche usando un piccolo telescopio gli altri corpi del sistema solare ci appaiono di forma sferica ed isolati nello spazio. Per analogia questo dovrebbe valere anche per la Terra.

Please select the word from the list that best fits the definition, region with a marine west coast climate
Mkey [24]
<span>The marine west coast climate is a biome characteristic of being located midway between the tropics and arctic or Antarctic regions of the world, most often between 35 and 60 degrees north. This climate's major characteristics are mild summers and winters and abundant annual precipitation. This ecosystem is highly influenced by its proximity to the coast and to mountains. It is sometimes known as the humid west coast climate or the oceanic climate. In additional to coastal plains and mountains, this type of climate is often characterized by glacial valleys and fjords.

Marine west coast climates are typically found to the west of large mountain ranges that cause fronts to collide and release all of their precipitation. Wet warm air from the coast rises and cools as it goes over the mountain. This causes the water in the air to cool and condense, resulting in rain, drizzle, and fog. Then drier air proceeds inland. This is known as the rain shadow effect, which in basic terms is when a mountain blocks the advance of wet weather, creating a dry biome on the other side and a wet biome on the ocean side. This results in a very special climate.

Think of areas such as British Columbia in Canada, Washington and Oregon in the United States, and most of the continent of Europe. Parts of Africa and Australia are also considered marine west coast despite not being located on a west coast of the continent.</span>

Help me out a bit! This may be a bit hard but still guys, you can do this question!!!!!!!!!
ra1l [238]

Layers of the soil are called horizons. Here are the horizons:

  • Humus
  • Topsoil
  • Subsoil
  • Fragmented rock
  • Bedrock

Once a soil has developed, it forms layers called horizons. Beneath a surface layer of a plant remains, the topsoil is rich in decomposed plants and animal matter. The subsoil is mainly mineral particles, with much less organic material. The fragmented rock/bedrock is primarily small stones, and beneath it lies all bedrock.

Hope this answer helps you!
