ASAP PLEASE HELP: What is convection and how does it contribute to making Death Valley so hot?

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Death Valley’s crazy heats are caused by a combination of the lack of water, geography, and materials that make up the valley.

The average yearly rainfall in Death Valley is only 2 inches. This is less than many other deserts in the world, averaging around 10 inches of rain annually. This intense lack of water also creates a lack of plants in the area resulting in the expanses of sand in the valley open to constant heating by the sun.

Sea level in Death Valley

Driving into the valley you get to experience the geography of the environment, traveling from 1000 feet to 4000 feet above sea level and down to 100 feet below sea level. These mountain ranges you drive over top 4000 feet and surround the lowest point in the United States of 282 feet below sea level. This creates an interesting phenomenon of trapping the hot air within the valley.

Sand and rocks make up the valley floor which radiate a large amount of heat. However, because of the geography, this hot air cannot escape. Instead, the hot air rises along the valley walls, cools slightly and then falls back to the valley floor to be heated even more by the hot sand and low elevation air pressure. This concept of movement by heating and cooling is called convection and exists in many other life circumstances like the boiling of water or in a kitchen oven. Despite the movement of air and possibility of high winds, the winds do not do much to cool down the hikers in the valley because the wind is still very hot.

The heat can be so extreme that signs in the park advise turning off the air conditioning in certain areas to avoid overheating of cars, making the experience an even toastier one. Additionally, hiking is recommended only before 10am and with lots of water.

Despite the heat it is worth braving the heat to experience the truly unique views of Death Valley. This unique environment allows for rock formations, salt flats and expanses unlike anything else in the United States.

A grocery store has two recycling machines

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer is 112%

kinda skeptical about my answer but i am going to give it my best shot, sorry if i get it wrong.

In percent-type questions I always go by this formula:

not a % %

original number : 100%

new number : new %

original number × new % = new number × 100%

here, the original numbers are 240 and 180 and the new % is +30% and -10% now let plastic be P and metal be M and let's elaborate this a bit further

plastic:

the first recycling machine took in 240 plastic bottles while the second took in 30% <u>more</u> plastic bottles, what we have to do here is to find out how much bottles the second machine took in as a form of integer, which is the new number; let that new number be X, let's plug this in the formula

$240:100+30\\X:130 \\$

notice: 130 is the new %

$240*130 = 100X\\31200 = 100X\\312=X$

the second machine took in 312 plastic bottles, let's save this answer for later

metal:

the first recycling machine took in 180 metal cans while the second took in 10% <u>less</u> plastic bottles, we do the same thing and find the new number, this time let it be Y:

$180:100-10\\Y=90$

90 is the new % here; also, notice how sometimes you either add or subtract percents, depending on what the problem demands.

$180*90=100Y\\16200=100Y\\162=Y$

Now we can conclude that the first recycling machine took in 240 plastic bottles and 180 metal cans and the second took in 312 plastic bottles and 162 metal cans.

here comes the hardest bit to apprehend and the final part of this problem, "the second machine recycled what percent (%) more items than the first?"

in other words, how much percent did the second machine recycle more.

to find that percent, first we need to add the plastic and metal "items" of both machines individually and turn them into percents: let the first machine be A and second machine be B:

A: 240+180=420

B: 312+162=474

again, using the same formula to find the new percent, let that percent be Z; plugging both A and B respectively:

$420:100\\474:Z$

$420Z=474*100\\420Z=47400\\Z= 112.857$ ≈ 112% more items than the first

now if you check the rounded up 112 and plug it back in to make sure of your answer: $420Z=47400$ you end up getting 47040, since it's rounded up, but when you plug the full 112.857 you get 47399.94, closest to 47400. Tip: when you plug in any value for check up, don't use the rounded up one.

At last, those steps are actually fast, especially with that formula it's so important. the explanation seems intimidating so read it slowly and take your time. if you have any other questions, feel free to ask. also, let me know if you know a faster method to solve this question. <3
