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).

Lilit [14]

Answer is give below

Explanation:

when any object or spacecraft is located exactly between Earth and Mars.

than Earth gravitational force will be exerted on spacecraft more than the Mars gravitational force.

as we know that gravity on the Mars is less than the gravity on the Earth

so spacecraft will move very slowly toward the Earth.

gravity force on Earth =  9.807 m/s²

gravity force on Mars =   3.711 m/s²
