Answer:
B
. Areas near the equator get more direct sunlight so the temperatures are higher.
Explanation:
At equator, the sun is always over head and hits the surface directly. The surface is no at an angle to the sun.
The insolation here is very great and they received more direct sunlight.
- Due to the high insolation, the temperature is higher than most part of the earth.
- Rainfall levels are also high as rain cloud easily forms here.
- In most equatorial region, both temperature and rainfall is high all year round.
Answer:
b. wind waves, seiches, tsunami, tides.
Explanation:
The wavelength of water waves is calculated measuring the distances between the trough (low point) portion of a wave. Usually, the bigger the wave, the greater the wavelength.
wind waves: small waves caused by the wind. These waves tend to be small and with a short wavelength.
seiches: are usually waves on a lake or other closed water bassin. They can be pretty high from a human perspective, so they are definitely bigger than wind waves.
tsunami: we all know how big the waves of a tsunami can be, totally wiping out coastal cities they encounter, so that's pretty big waves, and big waves tend to be larger apart (so with a bigger wavelength) than smaller ones.
tides: yes, a tide can be considered as a huge wave... that's running throughout the planet. We barely see it as a wave because we can only see one wave at a time, the next wave being tens of thousands of mile away.
