Because water has a very high specific heat, it is very common that areas near oceans or large lakes tend to have more moderate and warmer climates than those that are away from these big bodies of water.

Answer:

Option (C)

Explanation:

The specific heat of any particular substance is usually defined as the amount of heat energy that is required to raise a unit mass of the material by 1°C. The water has this high heat capacity as a result of which the water bodies such as oceans, seas and lakes tends to become hot and cold at a much slower rate.

This is why the near coastal areas or the areas that are near to water bodies have a moderate type of climate than the areas that are far away from these water bodies.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

4x+28=2x+24+2x+2 slove for x
Alinara [238K]

The answer you are looking for is x = 0 (or undefined)

To solve for x, you would first combine all the like terms on the right side. To do so, add 2x and 2x to get 4x and add 24 and 2 together to get 26. This will give you 4x + 28 = 4x + 26, which you can now solve.

To find x, you would get the x by itself. However, in doing so you would get 0 or 0x. This is because you would subtract 4x on both sides to cancel out the 4x on the right, but in this case, it will also cancel out the 4x on the left. Thus meaning the answer is 0 or undefined.

I hope this helps!

The Topic
The fine arts in India have included an incredible variety of styles and methods of stone and wood carving, painting, bronze-casting, goldwork, textiles and other artistic production.

Until the later second millennium CE, the majority of art in India had religious or mythological roots. Temples incorporated elaborate sculptures and other artwork and were architectural and artistic wonders intended to elevate the worshipper's encounter with the resident deity into an awesome experience. Examples of religious artworks from earlier periods existing today include sculptures from the Mauryan and Kushan age, hope it helps

Which of the following is a domestic influence on foreign policy?
LenKa [72]

The correct answer is - A famine in Ireland prompts US response.

With the Irish famine of the 19th century, and the response to it by the United States, we have a very nice example of domestic influence on foreign policy.

Namely, the Irish potato famine was so bad, that very large percentage of the Irish population actually died, and the rest of the population was on the verge of starvation. Because of this, lots of people wanted to move out of the country in order to at least be able to have food on the table. This prompted a response from the United States, and they made an exception in their strict foreign policy because of the Irish people, so opened their borders to them in order to help them, thus letting them settle in the country.
