How many times does the earth spin around in a whole year????

Geography
1 answer:
Nataly [62]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

"There are approximately 366.25 sidereal days in a year so that the Earth spins 366.25 times with respect to distant stars in a year. The Earth's yearly motion around the Sun makes the Sun appear to make one backwards circuit of the sky during the year and hence there are only 365.25 ordinary days in a year."

there ya go :D

The difference in elevation between the highest and lowest contour lines on a topographical map is called: a. contour interval c
Crank
A topographic map is a sort of map categorized by large-scale detail and measurable illustration of relief, normally using contour lines that has an elevation of highest and lowest. The difference between highest and lowest contour lines is RELIEF, The high relief, and low relief. The example of high relief are mountains; they are mapped with large contour intervals. While plains are the example of low relief that normally mapped with small contour intervals.

In geography, the temperature in a given location is affected by different factors, mainly latitude, altitude, pressure, the weather, and ocean currents.

  1. Pressure – d. Affects temperature, moisture, and storm tracks. Pressure and temperature are directly linked: when one increases, so does the other, and vice versa. If cold air (which is dense and dry) encounters warm air, the warmer air will rise to the top because density makes cold air heavier. The air pressure at the surface will fall. This newly-formed low pressure system creates winds and storms.
  2. Geographic position – b. Local topography helps predict temperature and precipitation. It depends whether you are on a mountain, in the North pole, in the ocean, etc.
  3. Oceans – d. Sea surface temperature influences air temperature and evaporation rates. Sea surface temperature is where the water's temperature meets the air's temperature. As a result of a high difference between the two (as explained in 1.), storms or variations in the atmosphere can happen. Besides, warm water makes surface air warmer, which increases the temperature in nearby land areas, and vice versa.
  4. Mountains – c. Thinner air less able to hold heat makes climate colder. At high altitude, the air is less dense, which means it can't absorb and retain heat very well.
  5. Latitude – a. Affects temperature by influencing the seasonal range of solar intensity. This geographic coordinate helps determine how far north or south a particular point is on the surface of the earth, with the equator and the poles as reference points. All latitude lines are therefore parallel to the equator, which has more solar intensity. The higher the latitude (i.e., the closer you get to the poles) the lower the temperature, and vice versa.

A geologic feature of divergent plate boundaries in oceanic crust is the formation of
babymother [125]
D. rift valleys.

Trenches occur at convergent oceanic plates; fossils are extremely old bones, bodies, or footprints, which have gotten so old the intervening years have turned them into rock; U-shaped valleys are valleys which are shaped like the letter U, and are usually formed by glaciers, which tend not to occur underwater very often.

How long will it be until North America experiences its next High Tide?
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

Because the Earth rotates through two tidal “bulges” every lunar day, coastal areas experience two high and two low tides every 24 hours and 50 minutes. High tides occur 12 hours and 25 minutes apart.
