Geography
1 answer:
irga5000 [103]2 years ago
7 0

Answer: insolation is the process of trapping heat in a place like a house.

radiation is the process of emitting electromagnetic waves to heat something up, like the sun is heating up the earth.

conduction is the process of a hot or cold object touching another object which changes the temperature of the other object until both objects are the same temperature like my hand touching the hot stove.

convection is what happens when you mix a liquid or gas with unequal temperatures which results in the hotter liquid or gas being lifted up and the colder liquid or gas going down which eventually transfers their energy to each other until they are of equal temperatures

Example of chemical weathering
lakkis [162]

Chemical weathering is the disintegration of a substance in the rock through a chemical reaction.

Carbonation occurs when water and a pollutant, such as sulphur dioxide creates a weak sulphuric acid. When it rains and the water comes into contact with limestone a chemical reaction happens. Calcium sulphate is produced as it takes the calcium carbonate from the limestone. It can then transfer the solution to another area until it evaporates. When it does so it leaves behind calcium information such as stalactites.

hydration occurs when minerals in a rock absorb water, causing it to expand. Mineral, such as anhydrite, expands and weakens it’s structure and leave the rock more exposed to erosion.  

oxidation occurs some substances react to being exposed to water or air. Iron, when exposed, will turn from a silver color to a red or dark brown color known as iron oxide. It weakens the rock.

hydrolysis occurs when water bonds with a mineral in the rock. It is particularly strong at weathering feldspars in rock and can lead to the formation of Kaolin.

32. Volcanoes consist of A. leaves, stems B. lava flows, pyroclasts C. joints, branches D. faults, holes E. folds, trees
Bingel [31]

The correct answer is B. Lava flows, pyroclasts.

Explanation

A volcano is a mountain or hill that has an opening through which gaseous, liquid or solid materials can escape from the interior of the Earth. At the top of this cone, there is a concave formation called crater or chimney. When activity occurs in a volcano it is because it is erupting. Also, when it is erupting, the molten rock that comes from the Earth's mantle, known as magma, comes out. Once the magma comes to the surface, it loses the gases it contains because it evaporates, and when it drains the slopes of the cone it is known as lava, which flows from the top of the volcano. Finally, the waste expelled by a volcano through its crater during an eruption is known as pyroclasts. So, the correct answer is B. Lava flows, pyroclasts.
