Answer:
This strong current of warm water influences the climate of the east coast of Florida, keeping temperatures there warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer than the other southeastern states. Since the Gulf Stream also extends toward Europe, it warms western European countries as well.
Answer:
If an atom looses all of its electrons then it will become positively charged. It will also turn into an Ion.
Explanation:
The Sun is currently a main sequence star and will remain so for another 4-5 billion years. It will then expand and cool to become a red giant, after which it will shrink and heat up again to become a white dwarf. The white dwarf star will run out of nuclear fuel and slowly cool down over many billions of years.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
The amount of energy released or absorbed is equal the product of the mass, the specific heat capacity and the temperature change. The temperature change being the difference between the final and initial temperature.
Q = mc∆T
Q = heat energy (Joules, J) m = mass of a substance (kg) c = specific heat (units J/g∙K)
∆ is a symbol meaning "the change in" ∆T = change in temperature (Kelvins, K)
From the data provided in the question, we can deduce that:
Q = 16.7KJ = 16,700J
m = 225g
c = 1.74J/g.k
For the temperature, let the final temperature be f. This means our ∆T = f - 20
16,700 = 225 * 1.74 * (f - 20)
16700 = 391.5 (f - 20)
f - 20 = 16700/391.5
f - 20 = 42.7
f = 20 + 42.7 = 62.7
