Usually, yes.
Of course airplane heights are safer than mountain heights. Mountain heights are extremely dangerous and really scary but airplane heights are more higher altitudes. Airplane heights are not that scary also it is much safer than mountain heights.
If one side of the mountain has a lot of water, and there is a really high mountain range, then the water can't get over top, then the rain stays on the one side. Hope this helps :) Please recommend me :)
Angular mountain peak with three or more arêtes found in glaciated areas; for example, the Matterhorn in Switzerland. It is formed when three or four corries (steep-sided hollows) are eroded, back-to-back, around the sides of a mountain, leaving an isolated peak in the middle. and yor mum
"Brian" is an Irish name that is related to the word for "high". So a literal translation is something like a "hill" or "mountain". A more metaphorical meaning would be more like "nobleman".
The answer depends on the basis for the ranking that you wish to use. Is it the order in which it joined the US, its area, its population, its output per head, its mortality rate, rainfall, average altitude? The list is endless. And since you have not bothered to share that crucial bit of information, I cannot provide a more useful answer.
Rainfall on the windward and leeward sides of a mountain differ in the amount, whereby the windward side receives more rainfall.
When moist air coms up to a mountain, it is forced to rise, colling as it does so. This can cause some of the moisture in it to condense and fall as rain. As the wind comes over to the leeward side, it has lost some or most of its moisture, so there is less potential for rainfall.
It is the sloped side of a mountain that is colder and gets more rain. Why? Because the leeward side is the opposite of the windward side and is also dryer because when the clouds climb the mountain range (windward side) they loses all their water so there is none left for the leeward side.
because one side is cooler than the other
The prevailing winds will force the clouds to climb when they reach the mountain range. As the clouds rise they drop their moisture. So the windward side of the mountain will get rain, and the leeward side of the mountain will be drier.
on the leeward side
I do not know what you are talking about but here is some basic information about Leeward and Windward. Windward and leeward are two opposite words used on boats. Windward is the direction from which the wind is blowing at the time in question. Leeward is the direction downwind from the point of reference. Windward = the direction that the wind is coming from Leeward = the direction that the wind is going I hope you can figure out the answer from there I am sorry I don't know what you are talking about.
the windward side of the mountain receives more rainfall. (c)
The difference is that windward gets more rain, is wetter, and is the side of the mountain that is closest to the ocean. On the other hand the leeward is the farthest from shore and is drier but still gets rain.
The windward side of a mountain is typically the west side of the mountain, receiving the various weather as weather moves west to east. The leeward side of a mountain opposes the windward side, making it the east side of the mountain, receiving little weather, blocking weather (rain) and warming air rapidly as it moves down this side of the mountain. The leeward side of mountains causes deserts, dry places, little rain, etc., for it releases warm air unto these places, and blocks weather (rain) from moistening them (I.E. Las Vegas, etc. on the eastern side of the mountain ranges).
the windward side of the mountain receives more rainfall. (c)
Mountains can affect the climate of nearby lands. Clouds approaching a mountain are forced to rise, and rising clouds can't hold so much water, so they drop their rain, so the windward side of a mountain range may be rainy and the leeward side may be a desert.Much of airborne moisture falls as rain on the windward side of mountains. This often means that the land on the other side of the mountain (the leeward side) gets far less rain - an effect called a "rain shadow" - which often produces a desert.The higher the mountain, the more pronounced the rain shadow effect is and the less likely rain will fall on the leeward side.(The Windward is the side of a mountain that is facing into the direction that the wind is coming from.The Leeward side is the wind protected side of a mountain.)
