Thunderstorms and Lightning

As frequency increases, the period of the wave decreases. This is because frequency and period are inversely related - as one increases, the other decreases. The period is the time it takes for one complete cycle of the wave to pass a certain point.

Our sky is blue DURING THE DAY because of two things:

1) sunlight is entering our atmosphere

2) our atmosphere is thick enough to preferentially scatter blue light.

If either (1) or (2) cease to be true, then the sky will NOT be blue.

As night "falls," the sky does not go instantly from blue to black. Instead, less and less of our Sun's light is available to scatter, and thus the sky goes slowly from blue to black.

It's the same way as you go higher and higher. There is no altitude at which there is simply no longer enough atmosphere to scatter enough sun light to give the sky a blue look. It is more the case that, as you go higher and higher, the sky becomes less and less blue -- just like at night "fall."

For SOME idea of how our sky changes, check out a video of a space shuttle launch.

The Yamaha YZ250F has a top speed of around 80-85 mph, depending on various factors such as rider weight, terrain, and modifications to the bike. It is a high-performance dirt bike designed for motocross and off-road racing, where acceleration and agility are more important than top speed.

Hail forms when raindrops freeze while falling. This can happen for many reasons. If the drops move through an area of very dry air, rapid evaporation can cause the drops to freeze.

Extremely turbulent air can cause raindrops to fall, be sucked back upward into freezing air, collide with each other, and fall again as hail. Sometimes this process repeats producing oversized hailstones.

Subsonic frequencies generally refer to sound waves with frequencies below 20 Hz. These frequencies are below the threshold of human hearing and are often felt as vibration rather than heard as sound.

Hinduism is the oldest living religion in the world, with its roots dating back over 4,000 years. It is a diverse faith with countless deities, rituals, and beliefs, making it one of the most complex and rich spiritual traditions globally.

Well, you see the French Revolution was very sad at times. Not just the reign of terror, but somewhat silly things like having the names of the months all changed as well as the days of the week.

The term to describe the relationship of multiple pitches contributing to the total sound of one single note is "timbre" or "tone color."

In Canada, around 160,000 people are injured and about 2,800 people are killed in motor vehicle collisions each year. Additionally, there are thousands of injuries and fatalities from other causes such as falls, drownings, and work-related incidents.

Rest easy, it is unlikely that there would be any damage to the fetus if you drank alcohol or smoked before you found out that you were pregnant. Now is the time to stop, continuing to drink alcohol and smoke could affect the baby.

In general, there is no universal legal duty to rescue someone in imminent danger, unless there is a special relationship or specific circumstances that create such a duty (e.g., lifeguards, medical professionals). However, there may be legal consequences for failing to help if you had the ability to do so without putting yourself at risk. It is always best to contact emergency services if you witness someone in danger.

Angel Falls are located in Venezuela. They are at least 20 times higher than Niagra Falls making them the highest waterfall in the world. The first people to come to Venezuela were carib and arawak Indians it was later colonized by Spain. The Andes mountains are found in venzuela. The largest city of Venezuela is carcas and the Amazon rainforest is in Venezuela.

It is in fact London, a town which hosts more than half of the world's shop retailers. It beat rivals Tokyo, New York and Paris as the top shopping capital city in the world, with annual sales of £64.2bn :)

The MAXIMUM rated voltage is the voltage at which the electricity would arc across the insulators The usage voltage is lower than the rated voltage (usually somewhere around 80% The lightning arrestor voltage is in between. It will not pass current at the usage voltage, but will pass current when the voltage exceeds the arrestor threshhold

Light is faster than sound because it travels in the form of electromagnetic waves, which do not require a medium to propagate. Sound, on the other hand, travels as mechanical vibrations through a medium, such as air or water, which causes it to move at a slower speed than light.

Yes, you would likely survive because water is a good conductor of electricity and the current from the lightning would disperse in the water. However, it is important to get out of the water as soon as possible to avoid any potential dangers from subsequent strikes or nearby electric currents.

Answer The tallest buildings in the area because the lightning only has a short length to travel before coming into contact with something.Having a lightning rod also increases the chance of lightning striking.

it means to..... 1. make great efforts to acheive or obtain something

or...... 2. struggle or fight vigorously "scholars must strive against bias"

Thunder is the sound of the lightening cracking the sound barrier as it is breaking through the earths atmosphere.

A sparkler might be hotter than a hot poker. A hot poker used to turn logs in a fire does not get as hot or stay hot long after it is set aside. A sparkler contains chemical elements and gun powder. The gun powder is what makes it stay lit. It can get very hot, sometimes over 300 degrees Fahrenheit for the larger ones.

Some cleaning tips for a Sealy Posturepedic pillow top mattress are vacuuming and treating stains with cold water and a mild soap. If you use a protective mattress pad, the only cleaning the mattress will require is an occasional vacuum.

Laurentia lends it's name to the Laurentian Divide.

Laurentia is part of the continental crust that forms North America. The Laurentian Divide is a fault line that disects Laurentia.

Laurentia is named after the Laurentian Shield.
