Answer:
C.prevailing winds and upper air currents
convection currents in the atmosphere
and the Coriolis effect
Because the peak is the highest and the pointiest and that makes it easier for the mountain to poke through the Earth when it forms
Trial and error, but with no estimation or educated guessing.
Answer:
B. A few hours after i.e the peak timings.
Explanation:
- As can be seen from the large bodies of water which store large amounts of heat than the land surfaces, thus have a very high heating capacity.
- The changes in the sunlight intensity vary with various latitudes determines the patterns of the energy distribution over the earth landscape.
- It's experienced that the places near the equator get warmer as compared to that of the tropics and polar s regions and similarly there exits a day and night variation.
- In the day time, the average annual temperature reaches its maximum in the noontime from 2 to 5 pm i.e around 3 pm so it's clearly, understood that the earth absorbs this radiated heat energy in the form of short waves from the sun i.e just after some hour of incoming maximum solar energy.
- This diurnal temperature variation occurs, particularly in the higher latitudes.
Answer: Since the Earth is a sphere the last thing that was observed was the tallest: the bridge.
Explanation:
As the Earth is a sphere, we are unable to see too far away because light travels in a straight line so cannot travel around the globe. Our vision is therefore restricted to the point where the straight line and the curve of Earth diverge.
The higher the altitude and structure, the longer the divergence will take to happen. This is why the higher you go, the further you will see and the more you will be visible. The San Francisco bridge was the tallest structure and so was the most visible.
