La Niña tends to lead to drier, warmer weather in the southern United States, which causes drought in Texas. Which of these is l
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

B) Above average rainfall

Explanation:

The Southern Oscillation, also known as El Nino, brings in significant changes of the weather on all areas that are affected by it. Texas is also affected by El Nino, and that is manifested in milder temperatures and increased precipitation.

La Nina and El Nino have the total opposite effect on the weather conditions of Texas. While La Nina brings in warmer and drier weather conditions, El Nino actually brings in milder weather and much more rainfall.

Texas in general is semi arid. The temperatures are mild in winter and high in summer, with the rainfall mostly being absent for most of the year, and the majority of it falling intensively and seasonally. When El Nino is active though, Texas receives much more rainfall, making its temperatures lower in the process as well.

This is actually welcomed by the Texans, as the increased rainfall is good for the agriculture. The people are happy as well that they have lower temperatures for some time, so they are experiencing extremely high and unbearable temperatures.

How does the altitude of the Sun at noon on the same day in the Northern Hemisphere’s summer compare for two observers at lati-
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

It is 42° higher for the observer at 12° north because of the differ- ence in latitude.

Explanation:

The sun's altitude can be given by the following formula:

S = 90 - L + D

In which S is the sun's altitude, L is the latitude of the place and D is the declination of the sun.

Since the comparasion occurs at the same day, the value of D will be the same for both cases, so it can be disconsidered in our calculation.

First observer

L = 12

S = 90 - L + D = 90 - L = 90 - 12 = 78

Second observer:

L = 54

S = 90 - L + D = 90 - L = 90 - 54 = 36

The correct answer is:

It is 42° higher for the observer at 12° north because of the differ- ence in latitude.
