Answer to Question 1

Warm sea surface temperatures appear to contribute to the generation of large hurricanes. Secondly, an
atmosphere with little or no shearing to interfere with vertical circulation.



Answer to Question 2

Wave crests approach shorelines at an angle most of the time. Because of this, part of a wave will
reach the shore before the rest of it does. The end of the wave entering shallower water will feel
bottom at a depth equal to half its wavelength and begin to slow down. The rest of the wave will
continue to advance at the original velocity, creating a curve or bend in the wave crest, which is called
refraction

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
