<span>The answer is C. The volume decreases. A scuba diver at the surface of the sea takes a deep breath and fills her lungs with 6 liters of air. The pressure in her lungs is 1 atm. She then dives down ten meters, without inhaling or exhaling, until the pressure of the air in her lungs is 2 atm. According to Boyle’s law,  the air in her lungs decreases as she dives down.  </span>Boyle's Law<span> is the gas </span>law which states that in a closed space, pressure and volume are inversely related. As pressure increases, volume decreases, and vice versa.

Using the graph below, at what depth does the thermocline begin?
MAVERICK [17]

Answer: The thermocline begins at 100 meters of depth.

Step-to-step explanation:-

Thermocline is a transition oceanic water layer between deep and surface water in which water temperature decreases rapidly with increasing depth.

From the given graph it cam be seen that at 100 meters the thermoline begins such that  the temperature drops from 27^{\circ} to 24^{\circ}.

Hence, the thermocline begins at 100 meters of depth.

A student has a mass of 90 kg what would his weight be on mars if the acceleration due to gravity is 3.7 ?
Mumz [18]

Answer:

333N

Explanation:

Once we have the object's mass, we can find the weight by multiplying it by the gravitational force, which it is subject to. Being that Mars has a gravitational force of 3.7m/s2, we multiply the object's mass by this quantity to calculate an object's weight on mars.

So an object or person on Mars would weigh 37.83% its weight on earth. Therefore, a person would be much lighter on mars. Conversely, a person is 62.17% heavier on earth than on Mars.

Identify two situations for which climatic normals might not be accurate to use in determining daily
arlik [135]

Climate can determine a lot of things, but it especially determines what kind of plants and animals can live in an area. For example, polar bears need a cold climate. They would be terribly hot and would die quickly in the desert. When climates start to change, animals and plants become endangered.

Winds are generally in the same direction in certain places over the oceans. They have names like the North East Trade winds and Westerlies. These winds are important in climates and were also important to ancient sailing ships which needed the power of the wind to travel.
