Answer: Usually on a map, solid lines represent boundaries between nations, or if it is a map of the states, it would represent the borders of the states.
Explanation:
Answer:
This occurs due to the convergence of different air masses with different temperatures, density, and humidity. The turbulent conditions are produced, and cyclonic rain occurs along the fronts of the cyclone. The layer separating them is known as a front. The front has two parts – the warm front and the cold front.
At the warm front, the lighter warm air that is less dense usually forced to rise over denser cold air and thereby leading to cyclonic rain. A variety of clouds get formed, and they generally lead to moderate to heavy rainfall.
Causes for Occurrence of Frontal Rainfall
A tropical warm air mass comes in contact with a cold air mass of polar region. The less-dense, lighter warm air is then forced to rise over the denser, cold air.
It causes warm air to become cold. As the warm air is forced to rise further, it condenses to form the stratus cloud.
After becoming saturated, the stratus cloud begins to precipitate.
Frontal or cyclonic rain falls gradually for a few hours which can also extend up to a few days.
It is prevalent in Britain and Ireland, which is associated with the movement of depressions over the country. In north-west Europe, warm oceanic air and cold continental air converge to produce heavy rainfall in adjacent areas.
Answer:
B and C
Explanation:
B. In a given rock sample, the amount of Silicon-32 isotopes gets divided in half about every 170yrs.
This is the concept of half-life. Half life is the time take for half of a radioactive isotope to disintegrate. The shorter the half life the faster the isotope disintegrates.
From the question, we were told that it would take 170yrs for half of the isotope of Silicon to disintegrate to Phosphorus. This is the half life.
C. The half life can be used to determine the amount of Si-32 that has decayed from the time closure temperature was reached.
The closure temperature is very important in radioactivity. It is the temperature at which a system has cooled and there is no resulting disintegration of parent and daughter isotopes.
From first order kinetics, we know that the rate at which radioactive elements decay at any time is directly proportional to the number of radioactive atoms present. A knowledge of the half life helps to figure out the number of atoms that has decayed in time.
