Why do we sometimes hear that humans are top of the food chain?

Which statements about tornadoes are true? check all that apply. (a) about 12,000 tornadoes hit the united states every year. (b) a tornado looks like a funnel. (c) tornadoes are deadly atmospheric storms that cause millions in damages each year. (d) tornadoes can reach wind speeds of more than 300 miles per hour. (e) kansas is the state with the most tornadoes. (f) you will always notice a funnel before a tornado strikes.

Some material consisting of a collection of microscopic objects is kept at a high temperature. a photon detector capable of detecting photon energies from infrared through ultraviolet observes photons emitted with energies of 0.3 ev, 0.5 ev, 0.8 ev, 2.0ev, 2.5ev, and 2.8ev. these are the only photon energies observed. (a) draw and label a possible energy-level diagram for one of the microscopic objects, which has four bound states. on the diagram, indicate the transitions corresponding to the emitted photons. explain briefly. (b) would a spring–mass model be a good model for these microscopic objects? why or why not? (c) the material is now cooled down to a very low temperature, and the photon detector stops detecting photon emissions. next, a beam of light with a continuous range of energies from infrared through ultraviolet shines on the material, and the photon detector observes the beam of light after it passes through the material. what photon energies in this beam of light are observed to be significantly reduced in intensity (“dark absorption lines”)? explain briefly.

On a hot saturday morning while people are working inside, the air conditioner keeps the temperature inside the building at 22degreesc. at noon the air conditioner is turned off, and the people go home. the temperature outside is a constant 33degreesc for the rest of the afternoon. if the time constant for the building is 4 hr, what will be the temperature inside the building at 4 : 00 font size decreased by 2 upper p . font size decreased by 2 upper m .? at 6 : 00 font size decreased by 2 upper p . font size decreased by 2 upper m .? when will the temperature inside the building reach 24degreesc? 324281
