Solve the question that follows using the equation for the conversion of Celsius to Fahrenheit. F=95(C)+32 On February 9, 1934, the temperature in Buffalo, NY was −29∘C. On the same day in Anchorage, AL, it was 19∘F. Which city was colder on that day?

Buffalo, NY was colder on February 9, 1934

Explanation:

Temperature is the measure of thermal energy present in a given substance. It is a physical property of a matter which can be measured on the Celsius scale (°C), Fahrenheit scale (°F), and Kelvin scale (K).

To convert Celsius (°C) to Fahrenheit (°F), we use the equation:

°F = 9/5 (°C) + 32

Given: On February 9, 1934,

Temperature in Buffalo, NY: T₁ = (- 29) °C

Temperature in Anchorage, AL: T₂ = 19 °F

To convert T₁ from °C to °F:

9/5 (- 29 °C) + 32 = (- 52.2) + 32 = (- 20.2) °F

So,

Temperature in Buffalo, NY: T₁ = (- 20.2) °F

Temperature in Anchorage, AL: T₂ = 19 °F

⇒ T₁ < T₂

Therefore, Buffalo, NY was colder on February 9, 1934.

i just got this problem. it's 90.3

a rain shadow is a dry region of land on the side that is protected against the prevailing winds of a mountain range. the prevailing winds are the winds that occur most of the time in a particular place of the earth

prevailing winds carry air toward the mountain range. as the air rises up over a mountain range, the air cools, water vapor condenses, and clouds form. on this side of the mountains, called the windward side, precipitation falls in the form of  rain  or snow. this dry air produces a  rain shadow.
