Geography

Although the line at 180° passes right through Fiji, the International Date Line at that latitude is relocated to the east sides of Western Samoa and Tonga. I don't know how many miles that is, but it's at least 6° of longitude east of 180°.

(Western Samoa relocated the International Date Line to its east side in December, 2011, less than seven months before the time of this writing.)

Yes.

But it's not only in Alaska. The sun will remain over the horizon for all of the Earth that's north of the Arctic Circle for a few summer weeks.

It's the flip side of not having any sun at all for a period of winter.

Likewise on the Southern hemisphere, Everything South of the Antarctic circle will have continuous sun for a few weeks during their summer.

A cobalt-60 from Delhi University, which was unused for 25 years, was sold to unsuspecting scrap dealers. They then dismantled it and due to the harmful radiation emmited by the cobalt-60 pencils, there were 5 people who were exposed to radiation in which one died.

The Shivalik Range was formed due to the collision of the Indian tectonic plate and the Eurasian plate, causing the uplifting and folding of the earth's crust. This collision resulted in the compression and buckling of sedimentary rocks, leading to the formation of the Shivalik hills.

It is typically warmer inland than on the coast due to the moderating effects of the ocean. Inland areas experience larger temperature fluctuations because they are not influenced by the ocean's cooling or heating effects.

No, Hurghada is a beach resort city in Egypt located along the Red Sea coast. It is characterized by sandy beaches and clear waters, with no cliffs in the immediate vicinity.

The Malabar Coast is formed due to the western coastal plains of India being sandwiched between the Western Ghats mountain range and the Arabian Sea. The heavy monsoon rains from the Arabian Sea contribute to the lush vegetation and tropical climate of the region.

Man made geographical features are things that werent made naturally by nature. Something like a lake, or a hill that wasnt there until someone put it there. The Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri is one such lake. The Panama Canal would certainly be one too.

The blackbird pond in "The Witch of Blackbird Pond" is a fictional location in the book. It is set in the Connecticut Colony in the 17th century, and the pond itself is used as a significant setting throughout the story.

You will have to check the legend of the map to determine what the ratio of Centimeters to Kilometers on your particular map is. Maps come in different sizes and ratios. The ratio is usually found somewhere at the bottom of the map.

For example: 10 centimeters could mean 10 kilometers on one map and 100 kilometers on another map.

Uniform patterns in geography refer to the consistent distribution of a particular feature or characteristic across a geographic area. These patterns can be identified through analyzing factors such as climate, landforms, vegetation, or human activities. Identifying uniform patterns helps geographers understand the underlying processes that have shaped the landscape.

Flood warnings are good because they help to alert individuals and communities about approaching flooding events, giving them time to evacuate and take necessary precautions to protect themselves and their property. This can help to save lives, reduce property damage, and improve overall safety during flood events.

When driving from New York to Canada, you may pass through states such as New Jersey if you take the route through Buffalo, or Vermont if you take the route through Montreal. The exact states you drive through can vary depending on your specific starting point and destination within Canada.

The country with the most cardinals is Italy, as the Vatican City is located within its borders. The majority of cardinals are based in the Vatican City and Italy due to its historical connection to the Roman Catholic Church.

Elderly people tend to be more law abiding, better off financially (not always) and have a lot of experience to contribute. They also tend to have more health problems and be less tolerant of change.

Some judges are appointed for life, for example, to the US Supreme Court. The intent of a life appointment is to place the judges beyond influence. They cannot be put out of office because someone does not like their decisions. That is a good thing.

But some of them linger too long after they are starting to lose their faculties to age and illness and that is a bad thing.

The more elderly the more retired and the fewer working so the burden on those working is greater.

Verdun is located in the Grand Est region of France, northeast of the country, near the border with Belgium. It is known for being the site of a major battle during World War I, known as the Battle of Verdun.

They both share the prairies and the Rockies, and they both have long coastlines and coastal islands, but Canada has no semi-tropical region like Florida and the US has no northern territory like the NWT. Coastal Alaska actually has a milder climate than the NWT because of the moderating influence of the ocean. Canada has no desert like the US Southwest. They both share the Great Lakes but there is no inland (sort of) body of water like Hudson's/James Bay in the US. Canada has plenty of rivers but there is no contiguous system like the Mississippi-Missouri-Ohio system although the Mackenzie system is very extensive. The US has no huge tundra with permafrost. There is no separate huge US island that compares to Newfoundland. and Canada has no Carribean territories or any Pacific island group like Hawaii.

A place where two rivers meet is called a confluence.

maybe from university but at secondary school and below, only in the three sciences (physics, biology and chemistry) other wise it's just common sense, if you can't multiply you will struggle so it's strongly recommended that you can

Ploughing black soil after the first rain helps in breaking up clods and facilitating aeration, drainage, and root penetration. This process ensures that the soil texture becomes more suitable for plant growth by improving its structure and water retention capacity.

Yes, the spread of language was indeed complex and expansive, influenced by factors such as migration, trade, and conquest. People could travel to different regions, interact with local populations, and exchange ideas and languages. Climate and geography played a role in shaping these interactions, but there were also social, economic, and political dynamics at play in the spread of language.

Sunlight takes around 8 minutes and 20 seconds to cross the 93 million miles from the Sun to Earth.

UNIVAC I was the first commercially successful computer in the United States. It featured a stored program concept, meaning it could store instructions in memory for processing. UNIVAC I also used vacuum tube technology and had a magnetic tape storage system.

Because laser beams are pulses of pure light - travelling at a known speed. The equipment times how long the pulses take to bounce back from the volcano - if the time differs from scientists calculations, the volcano has either expanded or shrunk - possibly indicating an imminent eruption.
