Examine the relationship between social, economic, political and natural capital involved in the oil trade. (at least 200 words)

The factor that would have the net effect of making a place warmer during summer would be that it is in the middle of a landmass.

The reason why a warmer summer would be present at the middle of a landmass is because landmass:

1. Has a lower specific heat capacity, and therefore can be heated up quickly, through receiving insolation from the sun.

2. Land is opaque, therefore insolation only concentrate in shallow areas, making the surface temperature increase.

3. There is no mixing of warm and cold layers, along with the lack of presence of evaporation, there would be less cooling

In sum, the above effects can be called continental climate, and thus the middle of a land mass is cooler.

For your reference, here's why the other options are not correct:  

At a high elevation near an ocean - near the ocean would mean it has a maritime effect and therefore a cooler summer.

At a high latitude - with the less dense air, heat will be absorbed faster resulting in faster heat loss hence a cooler summer.

Hope it helps!

Answer:

Hotter star is more luminous.

Explanation:

A blackbody is an object that absorbs all the radiation incident on it. It does not reflect or let the radiation pass through it.

When the radiations are absorbed, the blackbody heats up. This results in the emission of radiation by the blockbody.

The amount of radiation the black body emits, depends upon the temperature of the blackbody. Therefore, greater the temperature of the blackbody, more the emitted radiation.

A star is very similar to a blackbody. So, if two stars are compared, then the hotter star will emit more light as compared to the cooler star.

Therefore, the hotter star will be more luminous than the cooler star.

Explanation:

The correct answer is C. Forced uplift due to the presence of a physical barrier.

Explanation

When a current of air finds a barrier in its way, for example, a mountain, it is forced to overcome this obstacle, in this way, the air surrounds the relief that opposes and overcomes the barrier which is known in Geography as Orographic lifting.

This collision between clouds and land reliefs causes the phenomena known as windward and leeward, in which a side of the mountain works las a filter, because it takes the humidity of the clouds that clash in the mountains(windward), while the other side of the mountain or relief, receives dry air, making it a dry environment and in some cases arid (leeward). So, the correct answer is C. Forced uplift due to the presence of a physical barrier.

Importance of food security.

Explanation:

Food security refers to the availability of food to everyone at all the time and at a reasonable prices. All nutrients and health factors that comes from food is very essential and  important and all these cannot be extracted via any single plant. We need a combinations of plants to get all the energy required and also maintain a balance in nature so that the plant does not become extinct. Hence , if we use a variety of plants we can create that balance in nature and also stay healthy and fit ,

Therefore ,

variety in plants is important for food security.

Answer:

B. Warm Caribbean Sea waters were forced up into the north Atlantic Ocean

Explanation:

South America and North America were not connected until 10 million years ago, but instead they were separated by water, thus the Caribbean Sea was connected with the Pacific Ocean. Because of this, the warm waters from the Caribbean were not forced further north in the Atlantic, but instead they were moving between the two continents. Once the two continents merged though, the warm Caribbean waters were forced to move toward the north Atlantic, thus they started to move towards Europe. Because they were warm currents, they significantly warmed Europe, up to 10 C degrees more on average, significantly changing the climate in this part of the world.

Answer:

Flood Tides

Explanation:

Tides are the change in water level in oceans due to which waves are formed. Tides are of two types high tide and low tide.

The term change in ocean water level from high tide to low tide is called

"ebb tides" and the term change in ocean water level from low tide to high tide is called "flood tide".

Flood tides describe a tide that occurs as the water rises in the basin during a change from low tide to high tide.

Answer:

slab pull-gravity pulls older and denser lithosphere downward

Explanation:

The subduction occurs only at the boundaries where an oceanic plate is involved, be it a boundary between two oceanic plates, or between oceanic and continental plates. The oceanic plate which is denser, heavier, because of the gravity is moving downward, thus it moves below the other plate. As it does, the plate gradually reaches the mantle layer where it starts to melt because of the high temperatures, thus it is getting recycled in a way. In this way, the oceanic plates are constantly getting destroyed, which is why the oldest oceanic crust is much younger than the oldest continental crust.

The national hero of the DR Congo, Patrice Lumumba, was a man that had lot of ideas, good and healthy ones, as to how the African continent should be and prosper. Some of his ideals was that the African countries become independent, all of them to be in good relations and support each other, form an organization through which there will political and economic collaboration between the African nations, to force the tribalism, ethnic, and religious rivalry out of the African mindset. In the present, these ideals still live on among millions of people, but unfortunately it seems that they are a minority. The majority seems to still engage in what Lumumba wanted to eradicate. The collaboration between the nations is not the best, being more tense than good, and lot of people try to migrate out of the continent instead of trying to make it a better place for living.

Answer:

I think a..

Explanation:

cause Kelvin scale starts with 373k

The wrong statement is that 'Ice only has one melting point,' as it can vary under different pressure conditions; under standard atmospheric pressure, the freezing point is consistent across all scales.

The statement that "Ice only has one melting point, but that point can be measured by different scales" is not true in the list provided. The melting point of ice can be changed under different conditions such as pressure. However, in the normal atmosphere at sea level where pressure is standard, freezing or melting occurs at 0°C, 32°F, or 273.15K. All three temperature scales, Fahrenheit, Celsius, and Kelvin, share this freezing point at standard atmospheric pressure, but the melting point can indeed be different under varying conditions like pressure.

The Kelvin scale starts at absolute zero, which is correct. The statement regarding the freezing point of mercury at -39°C is also correct. The assertion about the Celsius scale being divided into 100 degrees between the melting and boiling points of water at sea level is accurate, and finally, the freezing of water occurs at a single point, 0°C or 32°F under standard conditions, which is true.

Answer:

Quaternary period

Explanation:

The last Ice Age on Earth occurred during the Quaternary period. This Ice Age only ended around 10,000 years BC, so very recently. During this period, big portions of the Earth were under ice, with approximately half of North America, as well as half of Eurasia being covered in ice. The mountains around the globe too were covered in glaciers. Because there was so much water trapped in the ice sheets and glaciers, the sea levels were much lower, which opened up lot of land-bridges between the islands and continents, which turned out to be crucial for the human migrations around the globe.

Point C on the map shows the exact location of the earthquake’s epicenter?

The point of the map which shows the exact location of the earthquake is where the three circles meet at each other. Thus point C is the correct answer.

The epicenter is referred to as the point above the focus on the earth where the shift in tectonic plates starts to begin. Thus epicenter is the point that is found above the focus point of the earthquake.

The point where the circles on the map, meet with others is considered the epicenter of the earthquake. It is important to find the location of the earthquake to provide information to the citizens of the country.

Therefore, the correct answer is C where all the circles cross with each other.

An artesian well is one that discharges groundwater at the ground surface without pumping. Thus, option 'A' is the correct option.

Water flows naturally under pressure from an artesian well without the need for pumping. Wherever a gently sloping, permeable rock layer (like sandstone) absorbs water along its outcrop at a level higher than the level of the earth at the well site, it is excavated or drilled. Water from artesian wells is often of exceptional quality. The depth of the well, however, may have an impact on the water's quality.

Arsenic concentrations in wells that draw their water from bedrock formations, such as deep sandstone formations, may pose a health risk. A particular kind of spring water that emerges freely from deep wells is called artesian water. In contrast to conventional wells, artesian wells don't need a pump to draw water from the ground.

An artesian well is one that discharges groundwater at the ground surface without pumping. The correct option is a.

A groundwater discharge at the surface of the ground without the use of a pump is known as an artesian well. It happens when a well is drilled into a confined aquifer that is sandwiched between impermeable layers and is under enough pressure to force water upward.

The higher elevation recharge area is where the pressure is generated because it allows water to pass through the permeable rock strata and create natural water pressure inside the confined aquifer. When a well is dug into the artesian aquifer as a result the water rises above the aquifer level and may even flow to the ground surface providing a dependable and continuous source of water without the need for additional mechanical pumping.

Answer:

The correct option is : e) A, B and C

Explanation:

The continental drift is the theory that continents of the earth have moved relative to the other continents over the period of time. Therefore, the continents appear and are said to be drifted or moved across the ocean bed. This theory was fully developed by Alfred Wegener in 1912. This hypothesis was supported by the following evidences

1. the fossils of the plants and animals are found on the shores of continents that were once joined.

2. The continental coastlines fit together in a puzzle-like manner.

3. The similarity in the rock groups present on the continents that were once joined.

Answer: True

Explanation: Yes,tornadoes are small scale circulation produced by the winds and hurricanes are the strong circulation of the wind on the surface. So, both are considered as the wind swirling around the center in strong upward motion.

Hurricanes and tornadoes both are considered as the same cyclone because it appears in cyclic storm form and has downward motion at the mid of storm and circulation at the upward direction.

Answer:

Evaporite minerals formed from restricted open ocean circulation with high evaporation rates

Explanation:

Salts like halite and gypsum are called evaporites.

Evaporites are chemical sedimentary rocks that forms when water in a basin(oceans, lakes) are restricted to flow and evaporation causes precipitation of the minerals dissolved in the water.

Halite and gypsum form insolube precipipate that accumulates over a long period of time in such an environment. The formation of evaporite largely depends on the dissolved load of a sediment and the environment of depositon of the load.

1. False

In the past several decades, and especially in the past 20 years, the global temperatures have been on the rise. The rise of the temperature is not the same in all places, and there are differences between the regions, especially between the latitudes. The lowest latitudes tend to be the least affected, as the temperature has increased the least. The mid-latitudes have moderate increase in the temperatures, while the high latitudes have experienced the largest increase in temperatures, which has resulted in melting of the ice sheets.

2. Both the Arctic Sea and the land ice on Antarctica and Greenland have lost large amounts of ice

With the increase of the global temperatures because of the strengthening of the greenhouse effect, the high latitudes have been the most affected. The largest ice masses on the planet, have been heavily affected by this, with the ice sheets and glaciers on Antarctica, the Arctic, and Greenland all shrinking. Because they have all been losing lot of ice, it has affected the ocean waters, resulting in sea level rise, putting in danger lot of cities and islands around the world.

3. burning of fossil fuels - global temperature rise - the greenhouse effect - ocean acidification - sea level rise - shrinking ice sheets - warming oceans - glacial retreat

The global warming is a cyclic process that occurs on the planet. During the Pleistocene it has been occurring between the glacial periods. There are several factors that contribute to the global warming, some of which are cyclical movements and positioning of the Earth, while some are a result of the processes on the planet. The global warming has been a very important topic in the past few decades, with the main reason being that the human activity is actually resulting in speeding up of this process.

4. Incoming solar radiation is trapped in the Earth's atmosphere by certain molecules resulting in warmer surface temperature

The greenhouse affect is a process that occurs naturally, but in the past couple of centuries, the humans have also contributed to it. This effect is basically the accumulation of greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere, which manage to trap heat, thus increase the atmospheric temperature and the surface temperature of the planet. There are multiple consequences from this effect, such as rising temperatures, acidification of the oceans, melting of the ice sheets, rise of the sea waters.

Equatorial regions have experienced the largest increases in global surface temperature in the past 20 years. There has been substantial loss of Arctic sea ice, as well as land ice on Greenland and Antarctica. The greenhouse effect is the trapping of solar radiation in the Earth's atmosphere, resulting in a warmer surface temperature.

The largest increases in global surface temperature in the past 20 years have indeed been in the equatorial regions. This is supported by the fact that glaciers and polar ice are melting at a faster rate, leading to rising sea levels. Additionally, the Arctic Sea ice has experienced significant loss, while the land ice on Greenland and Antarctica has also shown a substantial decrease.

The documented evidence supporting global warming includes the burning of fossil fuels, global temperature rise, the greenhouse effect, ocean acidification, declining arctic sea ice, sea level rise, shrinking ice sheets, and extreme events. These factors all contribute to the overall understanding of climate change and its impacts.

The greenhouse effect refers to the process where incoming solar radiation is trapped in the Earth's atmosphere by certain molecules, resulting in a warmer surface temperature. This phenomenon is primarily caused by the increase in greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide and methane, which trap heat and lead to global warming.

c. tropical depressions

Explanation:

Tropical depressions occurs most frequently.

Tropical depressions occur most frequently because they represent the initial stage of a tropical cyclone's development, from which they can evolve into tropical storms and subsequently hurricanes.

The frequency of different types of tropical weather events can be understood in terms of their development stages. The stages are as follows: tropical depressions, tropical storms, and then hurricanes. Tropical depressions, with wind speeds between 25 and 38 miles per hour, are the initial stage of development. They can develop into tropical storms when winds reach between 39 to 73 miles per hour, which are then named. If the wind speeds exceed 74 miles per hour, a tropical storm is classified as a hurricane. Given this developmental progression, tropical depressions occur most frequently as they represent the starting point of what can potentially escalate into a more severe storm.

Tropical cyclones begin their life cycle as tropical depressions and can intensify into tropical storms and potentially hurricanes/major hurricanes if conditions are suitable. Therefore, tropical depressions occur more frequently since not all depressions will necessarily gain enough strength to become tropical storms or hurricanes.

It is true that subtropical deserts are centered around 20 degrees to 30 degrees north and south latitude.

The atmospheric environment of subtropical climate inhibits precipitation as the air always descends with clear skies, elevated inversions. Most of the Earth's tropical desert climate occurs between 15 to 30 degrees north and South latitude.

Temperatures are usually high (21-32) and on a daily basis variations are extreme. The deserts are subject to frequent fog and low-level clouds. The cooling results from the oceans and coastal waters give rise to cold currents. The maritime air penetrates less frequently as the high and low sun-monsoonal winds blow along the coast.
