Answer:

Climate change, where there is an increase in the average temperature, due to continuous human activities. These activities increase greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

Explanation:

Alaska is the largest state in the United States, and it has a cold climate. The climate changed over time as human activities such as coal mining contributed to greenhouse gas emissions leading to global warming. Over the years. the variations in weather leading to climate change melt the permafrost (frozen ground below the soil surface) causing ocean waves to erode the land and destroy property.

blagie [28]
West to east.

The earth is spinning on its own axis. Thus, the area of the equator directly hit by the sun's heat and more solar radiation compared to any other area. That same heat warmth the atmosphere. Warm air rises towards the pole which is cooler. This is the reason of constant movement of the atmosphere.

The Coriolis force governed the air flows towards the pole. While the earth is spinning plus the movement of air north or south, the air follows a <span>curved path, toward the east.</span>

In a white dwarf, electrons are packed in so tightly that they physically cannot get any closer to one another. This provides an
Natalka [10]

Answer:

The white dwarf will start to get darker.

Explanation:

The white dwarf will keep is spherical shape, since electron degeneracy pressure (outward direction) will counteract the force of gravity due to its own mass (inward direction) which lead to hydrostatic equilibrium.

A nuclear reaction occurs when light elements combine into heavier elements (that is know as nucleosynthesis). Exist different ways in which that can happen, but the most common is the Proton-Proton chain. In that fusion reaction, two atoms of Hydrogen combine to form helium, while the fusion takes place, photons are created.

Photons are the elementary particles that constitute light and taking into account that in white dwarfs the production of photons has ceased because there are no nuclear fusions, then, it is clear that the white dwarf will start to get darker as it cools since is emitting into space the photons produced in the past.
