Which statement explains how wind shear is created? warm air meets hot air from the tropics. two large storm systems collide over the ocean. warm, moist air clashes with polar air. polar air collides with a landmass

Option (3)

Explanation:

Wind shear generally takes place because of the changing speed as well as the direction of the prevailing wind, at a particular distance. A significant amount of wind shear usually occurs within the earth's atmosphere. The strong and intense type of wind shear results in the formation of extreme weather conditions such as hurricanes and tornadoes.

This shearing of wind generally occurs in the following regions-

(1) They occur in the region where there are differences in the prevailing wind speed.

(2) They also occur at high elevation due to the effect of jet streams.

(3) They form in the region where the warm and hot air collides with the cold air near the surface of the earth.

Thus, the correct answer is option (3).

the answer is b, have negligible mass

so here is the information for current research:

-nrel's geothermal analysts, scientists, and engineers perform a full range of research from developing advanced methods of locating and accessing geothermal resources to exploring innovative technologies to extract and produce clean energy from the heat of the earth

and here is the information for the technology of geothermal energy:

-it's clean and sustainable

-resources of geothermal energy range from the shallow ground to hot water and hot rock found a few miles beneath the earth's surface, and down even deeper to the extremely high temperatures of molten rock called magma

-almost everywhere, the shallow ground or upper 10 feet of the earth's surface maintains a nearly constant temperature between 50° and 60°f (10° and 16°c)

-geothermal heat pumps can tap into this resource to heat and cool buildings

-a geothermal heat pump system consists of a heat pump, an air delivery system (ductwork), and a heat exchanger-a system of pipes buried in the shallow ground near the building

-in the winter, the heat pump removes heat from the heat exchanger and pumps it into the indoor air delivery system

-in the summer, the process is reversed, and the heat pump moves heat from the indoor air into the heat exchanger

-the heat removed from the indoor air during the summer can also be used to provide a free source of hot water
