Answer:

B. Rays of sunlight hit less directly. The days are shorter and temperature colder.

Explanation:

When the north pole tilts away from the sun, the sun's rays are displaced below the equator line, that is, towards the southern hemisphere. It causes the northern hemisphere to receive fewer solar rays and to receive them indirectly, which leaves the atmosphere cooler and decreases the length of the day. This moment coincides with winter and autumn in the northern hemisphere. This inclination of the north pole lasts six months and after that period the moment of inclination of the south pole begins, which causes the sun's rays to be displaced towards the northern hemisphere.

Answer:

The Arabian Peninsula is further south, separating the Red Sea, Persian Gulf, and Arabian Sea. The land of Southwest Asia tends to be hot, and very dry. Southwest Asia has an arid climate, meaning that fresh water is often scarce. In fact, most of the region gets less than 18 inches of precipitation in a year.

Why is tidal wave a bad name for an enormous wave generated by an earthquake
Andreas93 [3]
Hi. "Tidal wave" suggests a wave associated with the ebbs and flows related to the relative positions of the earth, moon and sun. These rises and falls relative to mean sea level are periodic and easily predictable. But the enormous wave generated by an earthquake is probably even less easy to predict than an earthquake and of no regular (that is, periodic) recurrence that anyone knows of. But I think "tsunami" is not too bad a name for such earthquake-generated waves as tsunami does not suggest any strong link with the relative positions of the earth, moon and sun.

If a 7.8 earthquake strikes in L.A. at 7:55PM. What is the epicenter and<br> magnitude of the quake
77julia77 [94]

If such an earthquake was to strike L.A., the epicenter and the magnitude would be <u>Los Angeles</u><u> </u>and <u>7.8 </u><u>o</u>n the Richter scale respectively.

<h3>What is the epicenter and magnitude of an earthquake?</h3>


The epicenter of an earthquake is the place on the surface of the Earth where the earthquake is first detected which in this case is Los Angeles.

The magnitude is measured on the Richter Scale and in this case is 7.8 on that same scale which means it was quite a strong quake.
