How is the earth rotating

Geography

iVinArrow [24]3 years ago

Answer:

Earth spins around its axis, just as a top spins around its spindle. This spinning movement is called Earth's rotation. At the same time that the Earth spins on its axis, it also orbits, or revolves around the Sun. ... Hence the length of a day on Earth is actually 24 hours.

Answer:

Earth spins because of the way it was formed. Our Solar System formed about 4.6 billion years ago when a huge cloud of gas and dust started to collapse under its own gravity. As the cloud collapsed, it started to spin. ... The Earth keeps on spinning because there are no forces acting to stop it.

Earth spins around its axis, just as a top spins around its spindle. This spinning movement is called Earth's rotation. At the same time that the Earth spins on its axis, it also orbits, or revolves around the Sun. This movement is called revolution.

Answer:

  1. Reduced snow accumulations
  2. Earlier snowmelt in the Spring
  3. Spring flooding
  4. Less water in streams
  5. Reduced water availability

Explanation:

Less snow will fall in Winter due to the higher temperatures and, thus, will not accumulate. When there is less accumulated snow on the ground and the snowpack is thinner, then the snowmelt will occur earlier and faster in the Spring.  

Quicker snowmelt in the Spring will result in rivers overflowing their banks because they cannot hold such a rapid influx of water. Rapid water cycle runoff will cause Spring flooding.

The snowpack will, therefore, be depleted early in the Spring season, and due to the earlier and faster snowmelt, there will be less water in the streams during the Summer.

The consequential lack of slow mountain snowmelt during the summer season will result in rivers flowing much less vigorously and with less volume over water. This means that downriver communities will face summer water shortages.

How is the cross sectional shape of a glacial valley different from a valley formed by stream erosion?
fgiga [73]
A glacial valley cross-sectional shape is a U shape whereas a stream valley is usually a V shape. The U shape comes from the scouring action of the alpine glaciers which carries rocks with it which can abrade the walls of the valley and the glacier occupies the whole valley so scours out such a shape whereas the stream cuts down and water washes in from the sides of the valley into the stream or river creating the V shape.

What is the farthest distance a human has ever been from earth?
Stolb23 [73]
In distance, it's something like maybe 245,000 miles ... corresponding to the
several Apollo missions during which a Command and Service module entered
lunar orbit and swung around the back side of the moon with astronauts aboard.

The farthest from Earth that a human has ever gone <em>and walked on solid ground</em>
is roughly 238,000 miles, corresponding to the six Apollo missions that landed
six pairs of astronauts on the near side of the surface of the moon, between 1969
and 1972 .
