Which statement is not true about glaciers?

Answer;

They exist only in the Northern Hemisphere.

Explanation;

Glaciers are made up of fallen snow that, over many years, compresses into large, thickened ice masses. Glaciers form when snow remains in one location long enough to transform into ice.

Because certain climatic and geographic conditions must be present for glaciers to exist, they are most commonly found above snow line: regions of high snowfall in winter, and cool temperatures in summer. This condition allows more snow to accumulate on the glacier in the winter than will melt from it in the summer. This explains why most glaciers are found either in mountainous areas or the polar regions.

The answer is: They exists only in the Northern Hemisphere.

It is possible to find a glacier in other spots in the world.

Calculate the heat energy of 100 g of water that has its temperature increased by 10C . The specific heat of water is 4.18 J/gC
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

4180 Joules

Explanation:

Multiply 100g by the 10c to get the amount of degrees heating the amount of grams, which is 1000.

Specific heat is how much energy it takes to heat 1 gram 1 degree celcius, which it took 1000 of.

1000* specific heat for water = Total heat energy

1000*4.18J=4180 J

It took 4180 Joules of energy to heat up 100g of water by 10 C

How do you calculate the velocity of the boat relative to the shore
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

Relative velocity simply means velocity relative to a certain observe point, in this case, the river shore.

This is a type of complex movement; a boat is moving with a certain velocity, let's say 8 m/s. However, the river this boat moves on also has its velocity, let's say 2 m/s. Since the shore isn't moving, the velocity of the boat relative to the shore will be simple resultant velocity of the boat's and the river's velocities.

Let's illustrate this with two examples:

1) if the boat is moving downstream both are moving in the same direction, so the resultant will be 8 m/s + 2 m/s = 10 m/s.

So, any spectator looking at the boat from the shore will think its velocity is 10 m/s, when in reality it's 8 m/s.

2) if the boat is moving upstream, these two velocities have opposite directions, so the resultant will be 8 - 2 = 6 m/s

So, as a short summary, relative speed is an object's speed in regard to another chosen referent point.
