Orographic lifting is associated with the mountains because it serves as blocks to the current of air, pushing the air to ascend.

Orographic lift happens when an air core is driven from a low elevation to a higher elevation as it passes over growing terrain. As the air mass gains height when it quickly freezes down adiabatically, which can increase the comparative humidity to 100% and produce clouds and, under the right circumstances, precipitation.

A constant used in an equation for gravity is 0.0000000000667. What is theis represented as a number in proper scientific notati

xxTIMURxx [149]

The correct answer is - C) 667 x 10-13.

The constant that is used in the equation for gravity, or rather gravitational pull, is 0.0000000000667. This same number, in proper scientific notation goes in the shape of 667 x 10-13.

The reason for that is very simple. Any number multiplied with 10-13 will give the exact same number, but as the last part of 13 decimal number. The -13 part dictates the number of decimals. So in the case of 0.0000000000667, the last part 667 is the number that is multiplied, but because the multiplying is in minus, the number goes on the back of the number. Since it has three numbers in it, ten zeros are added in front of it, in order to get the 13 decimals.

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

B. At the edge of the plates

Explanation:

Gravity is the principal driving force of plate tectonics (second one is convection). It causes different density plates to move on the Earth's surface. However, when a denser plate coincides the less denser plate, the high density plate subducts below the lesser density plate. The process, therefore, is called subduction. During this collision of plates, shearing resistance increases and all pressures come at the edge of the plate. The process continues and the lithosphere drags the rest of the plate. The portion of plate below the less denser plate then reaches the mantle. Here, the edge of plate is destroyed due to high temperature of mantle as well as pressure.
