Answers
Answer:
A) Wind caused by differences in temperature is known as convection or advection. ... Whereas convection is the vertical movement of air, advection involves the horizontal movement of air and heat energy transference.
Therefore your answer is wind.
B) Hygrometer is used for measuring humidity of air. When water or ice covers the bulb of a thermometer (wet-bulb), latent heat is removed from the surface of the bulb as the water evaporates, and the wet-bulb temperature becomes lower than the air (dry-bulb) temperature. At a lower humidity, water evaporates more actively, so that the wet-bulb temperature lowerssharply. The aspirated psychrometer measures humidity by measuring the difference between the dry-bulb temperature and wet-bulb temperature.
C) Indeed, carbon dioxide, a byproduct of fossil fuel combustion, is the principal greenhouse gas contributing to global warming. However, other greenhouse gases including methane, nitrous oxide, and a number of industrial-process gases also are important contributors to climate change.
D) The total average height of the troposphere is 13 km (8.1 mi; 43,000 ft). The lowest part of the troposphere, where friction with the Earth's surface influences airflow, is the planetary boundary layer. ... Atop the troposphere is the tropopause, which is the border between the troposphere and stratosphere.
E) The book of maps is called an atlas.
The mythological person Atlas is often associated, and pictured, on atlases. Atlas was an oversize (called a Titan) who was forced to carry the Earth and the heavens (usually pictured as a sphere) on his back. An atlas is a book or collection of maps.
F) White patches show uncultivated and waste lands.
G) Compass, in navigation or surveying, the primary device for direction-finding on the surface of the Earth. Compasses may operate on magnetic or gyroscopic principles or by determining the direction of the Sun or a star.
H) The scale has a true zero point, below which no values exist.
I) Generally rocks can be divided into three major types based on the process of their formation. These are; Igneous rocks, sedimentary rocks and metamorphic rocks.
In general, hot wet climates accelerate chemical weathering while cold dry climates accelerate physical weathering. Although the rate of weathering depends on the type of rock, rocks in tropical climates experience the highest rates of weathering because of the combination of high heat and heavy rainfall.
