The movement of deep ocean currents is mainly caused by:?

1 answer:

7 0

The relationship between the density of ocean water and the formation of deep currents. Difference in the tempature and salinity and the resulting differences in density cause variations int he movement of deep currents. For example, the deepest current , The Antarctic Bottom Water, is denser than the North Atlantic Deep Water. Both currents spread across the ocean floor as they flow toward eachother. Because less dense water always flows on top of denser water, The north Atlantic Deep Water flows on top of the Atlantic Bottom Water when the currents meet.

During a particular time interval, the displacement of an object is equal to zero. Must the distance traveled by this object als

Gnom [1K]

Answer: No, we can have a displacement equal to 0 while the distance traveled is different than zero.

Explanation:

Ok, let's write the definitions:

Displacement: The displacement is equal to the difference between the final position and the initial position.

Distance traveled: Total distance that you moved.

So, for example, if at t = 0s, you are in your house, then you go to the store, and then you return to your house, we have:

The displacement is equal to zero, because the initial position is your house and the final position is also your house, so the displacement is zero.

But the distance traveled is not zero, because you went from you traveled the distance from your house to the store two times.

So no, we can have a displacement equal to zero, but a distance traveled different than zero.

A circuit has a current of 1.2 A. If the voltage decreases to one third of its original amount while the resistance remains cons

Katen [24]

When resistance is constant, current is proportional to voltage. When 1/3 the voltage is applied, 1/3 the current will result.

(1/3)*(1.2 A) = 0.4 A

The resulting current will be 0.4 A.
