Hypothesis for drought​

Geography
1 answer:
Burka [1]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Drought is a condition, not a hypothesis. Drought is the lack of rain, or evaporation in excess of precipitation.

The CAUSE of drought is a multi-pronged hypothesis. It can be due to cyclic changes in ocean temperature (El Niño/La Niña). It can be due to rain shadow downwind of a mountain range. It can be due to fluctuations in the sun’s brightness. It can be the result of urban sprawl and resulting shifts in upwind evaporation/transpiration. It can be the result of climate bands shifting in response to changing atmospheric composition. It can be the result of agricultural practices upwind. It can be just bad luck, with a location consistently not being the whatever-percent chance of where it’s raining.

it is possible for two stars to have different temperatures and different sizes but the same luminosity. explain how.
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

Two stars (a and b) can have the same luminosity, but different surface area and temperature if the following condition is met:

(T_a^4)(R_a^2) = (T_b^4)(R_b^2)

Explanation:

The luminosity of a star is the total energy that produces in one second. It depends on the size of the star and its surface temperature.

L = σ(T^4)(4πR^2)

L is the luminosity f the star, T is the temperature of the surface of the star and R is its radius.  

Two stars can have the same luminosity if the relation between the radius and the surface temperature is maintained.  

To see this lets suposed you have 2 stars, a and b, and the luminosities of each one of them:

L_a = σ(T_a^4)(4πR_a^2)

L_b = σ(T_b^4)(4πR_b^2)

you can assume that L_a and L_b are equal:

σ(T_a^4)(4πR_a^2) = σ(T_b^4)(4πR_b^2)

Now, you can cancel the constants:

(T_a^4)(R_a^2) = (T_b^4)(R_b^2)

as long as this relation between a and b is true, then the luminosity can be the same.
