Assume a warm air parcel, at sea level, has a temperature of 21°C (70°F) and begins to rise upward. Assume it becomes saturated at 1000 m (3300 ft) altitude, and continues to rise to 2000 m (6600 ft.) altitude. What would the approximate temperature of the parcel be at an elevation of 2000 m (6600 ft.)?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: b. 5C (46.4F)

Explanation:

When air that is not saturated rises, it cools at a rate of 10 °C per 1,000 m. The warm air parcel only became saturated at 1,000m so by then it had cooled by 10°C.

Temperature at 1,000 m = 21°C - 10°C

= 11°C

When air is saturated, it is generally assumed to cool at a rate of 6°C per 1,000m. From 1,000m to 2,000 metres the air parcel decreased by a further 6°C bringing its temperature to 5°C.

Answers

Answer:

Auxiliary data from existing landcover charts, aerial photos, photography, or AVHRR can also be used in conjunction with field visits to improve map precision predictions. This improvement in precision is achieved by the use of an improved prognosis widely used in polling surveys.

Explanation:

With no additional problems in the research methodology without any unnecessary field visits, basically major increases in performance can be achieved. The first and only additional cost of obtaining the auxiliary data is incurred. The time of loss could be used with the random sample or systematic selection when the intermediate process is available throughout the region defined by the map of the land use/cover.

2. According to the theory of continental drift, all of the world’s continents were once connected as one large landmass and have, over the course of hundreds of millions of years, drifted apart into the positions they occupy today. Do the results of this activity support the theory of continental drift? If so, how? Explain your answer.

Answers

Answer:

Yes, the statement given in the question justifies the theory of continental drift.

Explanation:

Continental drift is a theory which explains the shifting of the continents over time by drifting across the ocean. The evidence of the continental drift is the plant and animal fossils along with the rock formation founded as somewhat same in different continents. The idea of Continental drifts developed under Alfred Wegener in 1912. He stated that all of the continents were once part of a single enormous landmass called Pangaea. He was able to give his theory by studying fossils of animals, plants, reptiles that found in different continents. For example, fossils of Mesosaurus (ancient reptilia) only found in South America and the southern part of Africa.

What were the first two great continents in continental drift

Answers

What were the first two great continents in continental drift

Pangea, the last supercontinent formed some 360 ​​million years ago by the grouping of all existing continental masses, begins to separate 130 million later, during the transit between the Permian and Triassic, and it does so by fragmenting into two major continents:

One, which begins to drift north and is called Laurasia, and another, which drifts south, called Gondwana. These two great continental masses are separated by the Neotethys ocean.

Laurasia will subsequently fragment and give rise to what will be Eurasia and North America, while the rest of the continents will separate from Gondwana: South America, Africa, Antarctica and Indoaustralia, which in turn will break, giving rise to the Indian and Australian subcontinents.

On a given summer day, in which location should training pilots expect, on average, smaller daily temperature ranges - Daytona Beach, Florida (on Floridaâs East Coast) or Prescott, Arizona (in the US Southwest at about 5,000 feet elevation)? Explain.

Answers

Answer: Daytona Beach, Florida (on Florida's East Coast)

Explanation:

The pilots should expect smaller daily temperature ranges at Daytona Beach because seaside areas are usually cooler as a result of wind from the body of water next to it cooling it down. In the case of Daytona beach, the Atlantic Ocean will be cooling it down.

This is in contrast to Prescott in Arizona which stands at a height about 5,000 feet elevation. Prescott will experience higher temperature ranges due to its elevation. Higher altitude areas are generally known to be hotter because the solar radiation is more there as it is closer to the atmosphere.

14. Explain six factors that hinder development of river transportation in Africa​

Answers

-Seasonality of volume of water;Some rivers have very high volume of water during the wet season but very low volume of water during the dry season
-Presence of rapids and waterfalls like Rippon falls on R.Nile hinders movement of vessels
-Some rivers eg Nzoia and Yala are too short and narrow making movement of vessels difficult ----floating vegetation like sudd on parts of R.Nile hinder navigation
-Silting at rivers mouths for example on R.Athi, R.Tana and R.Rufiji hindering movement of vessels

Africa is the second large continent after Russia and is home to a large number of rivers. But most of these rivers are not navigable due to they have waterfalls and are seasonal in nature.

Africa has a large natural resource base but suffers from a shortage of infrastructure and development. Most of the African land is under corruption and is politically unstable.  Most of the wars are due to power, political conflicts, and lack of developmental projects and financial constraints. Hence transportation through most of rivers is a big problem for people.

Humans and their close relatives (hominins) have been around for roughly 5 million years. What percentage of geologic time is represented by the history of this group?

Answers

Answer:

Approximately 0.11% of the geological time.

Explanation:

Evidence from radiometric dating indicates that Earth is about 4.54 billion years old.

If humans and their close relatives (hominins) have been around for roughly 5 million years, the the fraction of this time to the geological time is calculated below

4.54 billion years = 4.54 x 10^9 years

5 million years = 5 x 10^6 years

percentage = [tex]\frac{5*10^{6} }{4.54*10^{9} } *100%[/tex] ≅ 0.11% of the geological time.

Native species of North America are often defined as those species that were present in North America before Europeans arrived in the early 1600s. When Europeans arrived, they found extensive forests dominated by the American chestnut tree. These chestnut trees were extensively cultivated and planted by the North American natives for food and other wood products. In the early 1900s the chestnut blight (a fungus) virtually exterminated all of the American chestnut trees from North America.

(a) Is the American chestnut considered a native species despite its intensive cultivation? Explain why.

(b) Is the chestnut blight considered a native or invasive species? Explain why.

(c) Discuss why invasive species tend to proliferate at very high rates.

(d) Many people are trying to grow hybrid chestnut trees that will be immune to the chestnut blight so that forests can be restored to those found by the Europeans in the 1600s. Do you agree or disagree that this should be done? Justify your answer

Answers

Answer:

a) Yes! the American chestnut tree is a native species. The American chestnut tree was present before the Europeans arrived in North America in the 1600s. Since a native species has been defined as any species that was present in North America before the arrival of the Europeans, then it is a fact that the North American chestnut tree is a native species.

b) The chestnut blight is an invasive species that is native to east East Asia, and was accidentally introduced into North America around the early 1900s, when the Japanese chestnut was commercially cultivated in the United States.

c) Invasive species tend to proliferate at a very high rate because they lack some natural constraints in the new environment such as natural predators, competition, and as in the case of this chestnut blight; the host has no natural defense mechanism against them. These conditions allow them thrive more than they would in their natural environment, unchecked

d) Yes, I agree with this idea, albeit to some extent. The development of hybrid chestnut resistant to the chestnut blight will possibly return the forests back to how it was before the Europeans arrived in the 1600s, but the genetic conservation will be altered, since these new trees will be an hybrid of the old trees, and the forest won't truly be as it was before the 1600s

A population of bacteria contains 120 bacteria in generation 1 and triples in
population every generation. This sequence represents the number of
bacteria for the first few generations:
120, 360, 1080, ...
What is the explicit formula for the number of bacteria in generation n?​

Answers

Answer:

Bacteria population In generation n

pₙ = 120 (3ⁿ⁻¹)

Explanation:

The pattern that the bacteria Population follws a geometric series' pattern with the first term equal to the population in the first generation, 120 bacteria, the population in the second generation is the second term and so on.

First term = a = population in the first generation = 120

Second term = a₂ = population in the second generation = 360

Third term = a₃ = population in the third generation = 1080

The general formula for any term of a geometric series is

aₙ = arⁿ⁻¹

a = first term

r = common ratio

But for a geometric series, common ratio is given as the next term divided by the very previous term.

r = (aₙ/aₙ₋₁)

For this question,

r = (360/120) = (1080/360) = 3

So, the right model for the profits for any given year n is

pₙ = 120 × 3ⁿ⁻¹

pₙ = 120 (3ⁿ⁻¹)

Choose the best answer from the options below:
A
deltas
B
peninsulas
C basins
D trenches

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is D. The deepest parts of the oceans, located near the continents, are the oceanic trenches.

Explanation:

The ocean trenches are large depressions at the base of the seabed, which constitute the deepest parts of the Earth. Of these, the Mariana Trench, located in the Pacific Ocean to the east of China, is the deepest, being approximately 11,000 meters deep.

These trenches are formed by the activity of tectonic plates, specifically when one plate moves below the other and by the force exerted a depression is generated in the seabed, followed by a chain of volcanic islands at a close distance.

It is 45°C at sea level. What will the temperature be at 5500 meters? Use the normal lapse rate.

Answers

Answer: 9.25°C

Explanation:

As you move higher from sea level, the temperature drops at an average rate. This average rate at which the temperature drops is known as the lapse rate.

This rate is 6.5 °C per 1000 m.

Temperature at 5,500m has dropped by;

= 6.5 * [tex]\frac{5,500}{1,000}[/tex]

= 35.75 °C

Temperature has decreased by 35.75 °C.

Temperature at 5,500m above sea level is;

= 45 - 35.75

= 9.25°C

The girl is delighted to play on a city soccer team, even though the team wins only three games all season

Answers

Answer: What was done was not right.

Explanation:

I understand that as a mother, your child's happiness is paramount. However, it should not come at a cost of teaching them the right lessons in life. The 12 year old girl watched her mother lie for her and this will probably become an issue in future if she starts to believe that sometimes you have to lie to get what you want. This is how seeds of corruption and fraud are sown. If that girl were to grow up with such lessons and get into political office someday, it would be quite troublesome.

Another reason this was wrong is that we are unsure if there were limited spots in the team. By lying to get her daughter in, the mother might have unwittingly denied a place to another child who is actually a resident of the city.

The mother should have thought of a better way to get her daughter in because this lie that she told will now have domino effects. Even if the alternative to getting her daughter in was difficult, it would have taught her daughter that in life you may have to struggle to get what you want but you should not compromise your values to do so.
