A) It is very dry at the equator because it is so hot.

C) Land masses change the direction of currents.
True
D)The sun provides energy needed for the evaporation process. Gravity allows water droplets to fall as precipitation.
True
Average velocity is displacement divided by time elapsed; Δv/Δt
You will need to use the information in the table you are given. Subtract: (final velocity - initial velocity) and divide by (final time - initial time).
