What else can I help you with?
What is the spinning of earth on its axis?
The spinning of Earth on its axis is known as its rotation. It takes approximately 24 hours for Earth to complete one full rotation. This rotation is what causes day and night to occur.
What does the earth make one of on its axis everyday?
The Earth makes one complete rotation on its axis every day, which causes day and night to occur.
What weather characteristics change?
Weather characteristics that can change include temperature, precipitation, wind speed and direction, humidity, cloud cover, and atmospheric pressure. These changes occur due to various factors such as air masses, frontal boundaries, the Earth's rotation, and interactions between the atmosphere and oceans.
Which statement best explains how convection currents can occur in earths mantle?
Convection currents in Earth's mantle occur due to the heat generated from the core, which causes the hot, less dense mantle material to rise towards the surface. As it reaches the top, it cools and becomes denser, causing it to sink back down. This continuous cycle of rising and sinking material drives the movement of tectonic plates on the surface.
Where does erosion and deposition occur on meandering river?
Erosion typically occurs on the outer bank of meandering rivers due to the faster flow of water and increased energy. Deposition tends to occur on the inside bank where the water flow slows down and sediment is dropped. Over time, this process causes the meander to migrate and change shape.
What change would occur if earths rate of rotation significantly decreased?
the orbit
Which observable change would occur in NY if earths rate of rotation were one half its present rate?
The days would be longer
What change would occur if the earths rotation significantly decreased?
The length of a day would increase and the number days in a year would decrease.
Which observable change would occur in New York state if earths rotation were one-half it's present rate?
Days and nights would be twice as long.
Why are there separate time zones?
This is because of the earths rotation. Sunrise and sunset occur at different times in different places
How can an earthquake change the earths surface?
it can rapidly cause a landslide to occur
What does the magetosphere attract?
it traps plasma in flux transfer events that occur every eight minutes. The trapping of plasma is key in enhancing Earths magnetosphere and maintaining rotation for planets and suns. A reduction in magnetosphere is a reduction in rotation period. If Earth did not experience FTE's there would be no rotation as in Venus and Mercury
Is the most likely outcome of increased global temperature?
Rising sea levelsClimate change will occur.
What change is most likely to occur when a rain forest habitat is destroyed?
Global warming is increased
What is the first phase change that is most likely to occur as the pressure on nitrogen gas is increased and its temperature is decreased?
Condensation
How does the first quarter occur?
the rotation of earth
In which form do many minerals occur naturally on the earths surface?
Many minerals occur naturally on the earths surface in rock form
