Answer:

Yes, cloud cover is an important factor influencing the solar radiation

Explanation:

  • <u>Length of the day and the angle of the sunshine </u>and place located on the sphere of the earth are also considered vital factors in the infrared radiation that reaches the ground and is transferred into space from the same processes.
  • There exists a seasonal variation in the incoming and outgoing of long and shortwave energy of the sun which is related by the <u>earth rotation as a black body at the night. </u>
  • The latitude which is located close to the equator is getting most of the sun rays and have a longer amount of insolation reaching the ground.  
  • Thus the places located on the poles have a lower angle of incidence of rays hence there is less radiation and less amount of energy is generated due to the <u>snow has a very high albedo than the tropics</u>.
  • To predict the weather analysis of clouds over the area needs to be taken care o as these influence the winds and temperature patterns. Like the formation of high and low-pressure areas over the lands.

The hypotenuse of right triangle ABC, line segment AC, measures 13 cm. The length of line segment BC is 5 cm. What is the approx
ipn [44]

Answer:  44.8\°

Explanation:

We have a right triangle with sides AB, BC=5cm and AC=13cm (the hypotenuse). Let's apply the Pithagorean Theorem to find AB:

AC^{2}=AB^{2} + BC^{2}  (1)

AB^{2}=AC^{2} - BC^{2} (2)

AB^{2}=(13cm)^{2} - (5cm)^{2} (3)

AB=12cm (4)

Now that we know the value of each side of the triangle, we will use the trigonometric function sine to find the angles C and A (angle B is 90\° remembering we are talking about a right triangle):

For angle C:

sinC=\frac{Oppositeside}{Hypotenuse}

sinC=\frac{12}{13}  (5)

C=sin^{-1}(\frac{12}{13})  (6)

C=67.38\°  (7)

For angle A:

sinA=\frac{5}{13}  (8)

A=sin^{-1}(\frac{5}{13})  (9)

A=22.62\°  (10)

Calculating the difference between both angles:

C-A=67.38\°- 22.62\°

C-A=44.76\° \approx 44.8\°

Continued movement of the continental crust on the west side of the San Andreas fault could result in which of the following fea
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

Option (C)

Explanation:

San Andreas is a prominent example of a transform fault, in which the plates namely the Pacific Plate and the North American plate slide past each other. The movement of the associated plates in this fault is in the right lateral, strike-slip. With the continuous and rapid movement of both the plates in its respective direction, the west side of the fault would get detached from the fault zone and lead to the formation of an island. The movement of the plates along this fault is responsible for the occurrence of shallow focus tremendous earthquakes.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).
