Which of the following best describes the first step in the formation of a hurricane?

A.
Cooler water produces air masses with high pressure, causing fast-moving thunderstorms.
B.
Warm ocean water evaporates and then condenses, forming a low pressure area below.
C.
A high-pressure air mass remains undisturbed over land, resulting in excessive precipitation.
D.
Air masses over the ocean become colder, causing water waves to move faster.

B

Explanation:

Hurricanes are very powerful, circular storms that begin over warm water. These storms have heavy rains, very high winds, and low atmospheric pressures. They are fueled by a strong cycle of warmer, moister air flowing upward from near the ocean's surface and being replaced by cooler, drier air from the surrounding area. This cycle gets faster and stronger as it is fed by the ocean's heat and water evaporating from the ocean's surface.

So, the first step in hurricane formation occurs when warm ocean water evaporates and then condenses, forming a low pressure area below.

no, the red giant is the hottest with 2.00.000.000 degrees celsius. while the white dwarf only 25,000 degrees celsius.

a. the law of proportion states the combination of 2 atoms in a specific ratio to produce multiple compounds such as the given statement of question ‘1st compound contains 88.8 % cu ’ indicates 88.8 g of cu is present along with 11.2 g oxygen in 100 g of compound whereas the statement ‘2st compound contains 79.9 % cu ’ indicates 79.9 g of cu is present along with 20.1 g oxygen in 100 g of compound

1st compound contains 88.8 g cu

for cu

m = 63 g /mol

atomic % = 88.8 /63 = 1.42

for o

m = 16 g /mol

atomic % = 11.2 /16 = 0.7

b. the emperical formula of 1st compound is

cu1.4o0.7
