Answer:

The most common types of precipitation are rain, hail, and snow.

Tropical cyclones are like giant engines that use warm, moist air as fuel. That is why they form only over warm ocean waters near the equator. The warm, moist air over the ocean rises upward from near the surface. Because this air moves up and away from the surface, there is less air left near the surface.

They are classified as follows: Tropical Depression: A tropical cyclone with maximum sustained winds of 38 mph (33 knots) or less. Tropical Storm: A tropical cyclone with maximum sustained winds of 39 to 73 mph (34 to 63 knots). Hurricane: A tropical cyclone with maximum sustained winds of 74 mph (64 knots) or higher.

Earth is 149.6 billion meters from the sun and takes 365 days to make one complete revolution around the sun. mars is 227.9 bill

We need to assume that the orbits are circular; this is a very good approximation and do not hesitate to adopt it. We need then to consider the basic equation of circular motion that relates centripetal acceleration, angular velocity, mass, radius and force:
$F=m*v^2*r$ . We also have the basic equation of Newton, F=ma. By checking, we see that for each planet we have that a=v^2*r where v is the angular velocity. v= $\frac{2\pi}{T}$ where T is the orbital period, hence we have that a= $\frac{4\pi^2*r}{T^2}$ . Denote with the index 1 the Earth case and with 2 the Mars case. We have then that $\frac{a_1}{a_2} = \frac{4 \pi^2*r_{1}*T_2^2}{4 \pi^2*r_{2}*T_1^ 2}$ . Substituting the known values in a calculator, we get the result: the centripetal acceleration of earth is 2.32 times greater than that of Mars.

Which statement(s) is/are true?

Nostrana [21]

Answer: Option (A) and (C)

Explanation: In case of slow sea floor spreading, the magma within the crust doesn't get proper way to exert the force upward because of its slower rate of spreading. Due to this, rifting occurs along the mid oceanic ridge.

Due to continuous rifting, it forms a valley known as the rift valley. This rift valley lacks in ridge and is comparatively smooth compared to a fast spreading sea floor, in which the topography appears to be rough and ridges are formed.

Thus, the statements that are true are option (A) and (C).
