Geography
1 answer:
AURORKA [14]3 years ago
8 0

Explanation:

Convectional rainfall

When the land warms up, it heats the air above it. This causes the air to expand and rise. As the air rises it cools and condenses. If this process continues then rain will fall. This type of rainfall is very common in tropical areas but also in areas such as South East England during warm sunny spells.

Which of the following statements best describes what is occurring in the land surrounding the Sahara Desert?
erastova [34]

The correct answer is - A. Desertification is increasing, and the desert is expanding.

The Sahara desert has been expanding in the past decades, and it has started to overtake territory south of it. This is mainly due to climate changes, the precipitation has been decreasing, the temperatures have been rising, so the desert has slowly crippled into the territories that were once steppes and savannas. There is an organized action from the people that leave on the borderline of the desert, where they have been thought some techniques as to how to stop the desert growing, and they have gladly accepted it and work hard on it. Initially it seems that there are positive results, but for sure only the time will tell.

If the duration of life on Earth was on a scale of 20,000 days, for how many of those days would the human species be present?
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

If the duration of life on Earth was on a scale of 20,000 days, the human species would be present in the Earth for approximately 9 days.

Explanation:

We can't be sure about the exactly age of the Earth, but we can base our calculus in a number between 4400 and 4600 million years, because the most accepted researches shows numbers in this span of time. We can take the average of those limits: 4500 million years.

On another hand the presence in the Earth of human species has not a precise date because of the it does not have a precise date for two main reasons, the scientific evidence does not include all the human species that existed on Earth but it is a very incomplete evidence and besides being an evolutionary phenomenon it is not easy to determine from what moment We can consider that a species belongs to the human race or not. In any case, we take the approximate date of the scientific evidence of the existence of human species in an age of 2 million years.

With both numbers we can calculate the proportion in the scale of 20 thousand years throw the following formula:

PHS = 20000 years . 2 million years / 4500 million years = 8.9 years

PHS: Presence of Human Species

How does the rotation of the earth affect storms like hurricanes
