Can you explain what science notation is?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Science notation is "a way of expressing numbers that are too large or too small to be conveniently written in decimal form. " In other words, shortening numbers. Lets say we have 45,000, and we want to write that. Instead of writing that, we could write 4.5 x 10^4.

Comentario del plano de la ciudad de Santander

Answers

Answer:

Santander [a] es la capital de la comunidad autónoma y región histórica de Cantabria situada en la costa norte de España. Es una ciudad portuaria ubicada al este de Gijón y al oeste de Bilbao con una población de 172.000 (2017). [4]

Se cree que ha sido un puerto desde la antigüedad, debido a su favorable ubicación, y está documentado desde el siglo XI. Gran parte de la ciudad medieval se perdió en el Gran Incendio de 1941. Hoy en día, el resto del casco antiguo, la playa y otras atracciones son populares entre los turistas y otros visitantes, y su economía se basa principalmente en los servicios. El puerto todavía está muy activo y opera un servicio regular de ferry al Reino Unido. El pescado y el marisco dominan la cocina local. Santander alberga en particular la sede del banco multinacional Banco Santander, que se fundó allí.

a reason for temperature inversion in the valley​

Answers

Explanation:

Temperature inversion layers, also called thermal inversions or just inversion layers, are areas where the normal decrease in air temperature with increasing altitude is reversed and the air above the ground is warmer than the air below it. Inversion layers can occur anywhere from close to ground level up to thousands of feet into the atmosphere.

Inversion layers are significant to meteorology because they block atmospheric flow which causes the air over an area experiencing an inversion to become stable. This can then result in various types of weather patterns.

More importantly, though, areas with heavy pollution are prone to unhealthy air and an increase in smog when an inversion is present because they trap pollutants at ground level instead of circulating them away.

Causes

Normally, air temperature decreases at a rate of 3.5°F for every 1,000 feet (or roughly 6.4°C for every kilometer) you climb into the atmosphere. When this normal cycle is present, it is considered an unstable air mass, and air constantly flows between the warm and cool areas. The air is better able to mix and spread around pollutants.

During an inversion episode, temperatures increase with increasing altitude. The warm inversion layer then acts as a cap and stops atmospheric mixing. This is why inversion layers are called stable air masses.

Temperature inversions are a result of other weather conditions in an area. They occur most often when a warm, less dense air mass moves over a dense, cold air mass.

This can happen, for example, when the air near the ground rapidly loses its heat on a clear night. The ground becomes cooled quickly while the air above it retains the heat the ground was holding during the day.

Temperature inversions also occur in some coastal areas because upwelling of cold water can decrease surface air temperature and the cold air mass stays under warmer ones.

Topography can also play a role in creating a temperature inversion since it can sometimes cause cold air to flow from mountain peaks down into valleys. This cold air then pushes under the warmer air rising from the valley, creating the inversion.

In addition, inversions can also form in areas with significant snow cover because the snow at ground level is cold and its white color reflects almost all heat coming in. Thus, the air above the snow is often warmer because it holds the reflected energy.

Which of the following statements is best supported by the data in the Insolation layer? View Available Hint(s) Which of the following statements is best supported by the data in the Insolation layer? The slopes of the Himalayas represent an area of uniform insolation. The cloud cover of the ITCZ limits insolation just south of the equator at this time. At this time of year, insolation is generally greater in the Antarctic polar region than the Arctic polar region. The regions of highest and lowest insolation in the contiguous United States are both located in the western part of the country. North Africa receives substantially less insolation than Sub-Saharan Africa

Answers

Answer:

North Africa receives substantially less insolation than Sub-Saharan Africa.

Explanation:

North Africa receives less solar radiation from the sun as compared to Sub-Saharan Africa because north Africa is far from equator whereas the Sub-Saharan Africa is located near and on the equator zone. Those regions who are on the equator experience direct solar radiation of sun that leads to higher insolation as compared to areas which is far away from equator receives lower insolation so that's why North Africa have low insolation as compared to Sub-Saharan Africa.
