Why are Berg winds described as being dry​

Geography
1 answer:
solmaris [256]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:  The berg winds are described as being dry because of extensive heat in South Africa.

Explanation:

When the air that has been heated on the extensive central plateau flows down the escarpment to the coast it undergoes further warming by adiabatic processes. This accounts for the hot and dry properties of these off-shore winds, wherever they occur along South Africa's coastline.

Suppose you read in the newspaper that a new planet has been found. Its average speed in orbit is 33 km/s. When it is closest to
Natalka [10]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Kepler's second law states that for a planet orbiting a star, if we join the planet and the star by an imaginary line, such line sweeps equal areas in equal times.

Let's imagine the planetary orbit is elliptical. When the planet is closest to the star it travels a large distance in its orbit but takes little time to travel. When the planet is furthest from the star, it travels a small distance in the orbit but in a long time so it ends up sweeping the same are as in the first case.

Therefore, this means when the planet is closest to the star it must have a greater speed than when it's furthest. We know this thanks to the speed formula v = d/t (velocity equals distance divided by time).

For a great distance and small time, speed is a large value.

For a small distance and a great time, speed is a small value.
