What role does heat energy from the sun play influencing ocean currents

Chemistry
1 answer:
alexandr1967 [171]3 years ago

The sun heats up the atmosphere at the equator. The dense water sinks under and forms deep water masses under the ocean current. Then it gets wind due to the air current and this brings currents at the surface if the ocean.

2) Will all atoms behave exactly the same when the temperature is changed? ​
Butoxors [25]

no...the atoms will not behave the same

as when temperature is increased, the atoms vibration and kinetic energy will also be increased....they come in excited state...

where as when temperature is reduced ,atoms kinetic energy slows down....

How does density relate to the cold and warm air masses?
Amanda [17]
Warmer  air   is   less  dense  than  cold air.As  air  warm  it  rises  while  the  cold  air  sink. Warmer  air  masses forces the  cooler  air to  move  which  causes  wind.  These  is  illustrated  when  you  open  a hot oven the  hotter  air  inside  the  oven  rises  into  cooler  air  outside  the  oven.

Give three reasons why fluid spills in water are more damaging than fluid spills on land
marta [7]

Answer:

1) Oil is less dense than water so when oil spills, it spreads across the entire water surface.

2) The oil spreads very quickly with lighter oils such as gasoline.

3) Wind, Currents, and Warm Temperatures will cause Oil to spread quicker.

A laser produces red light of wavelength 632.8 nm. Calculate the energy,
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

189.2 KJ

Explanation:

Data Given

wavelength of the light = 632.8 nm

Convert nm to m

1 nm = 1 x 10⁻⁹

632.8 nm = 632.8 x 1 x 10⁻⁹ = 6.328 x 10⁻⁷m

Energy of 1 mole of photon = ?

Solution

Formula used

                     E = hc/λ

where

E = energy of photon

h = Planck's Constant

Planck's Constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ Js

c = speed of light

speed of light = 3 × 10⁸ ms⁻¹

λ = wavelength of light

Put values in above equation

                   E = hc/λ

                   E = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ Js ( 3 × 10⁸ ms⁻¹ / 6.328 x 10⁻⁷m)

                   E = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ Js (4.741 x 10¹⁴s⁻¹)

                  E = 3.141 x 10⁻¹⁹J

3.141 x 10⁻¹⁹J is energy for one photon

Now we have to find energy of 1 mole of photon

As we know that

1 mole consists of  6.022 x10²³ numbers of photons

So,

     Energy for one mole photons = 3.141 x 10⁻¹⁹J x  6.022 x10²³

     Energy for one mole photons = 1.89 x 10⁵ J

Now convert J to KJ

1000 J = 1 KJ

1.89 x 10⁵ J = 1.89 x 10⁵ /1000 = 189.2 KJ

So,

energy of one mole of photons = 189.2 KJ
