Hello,

The correct answer is C) The sun's radiation does not extend below a certain depth; therefore, deeper ocean water is colder than surface water.

<em>Hope this helps!!!! :)</em>

<span>Thermocline is a layer between warm water from the ocean’s surface and cool water from below the ocean. In here, the temperature decreases rapidly from the warmer layer to the colder layer.  A thermocline forms due to the heat of the sun heating the ocean’s surface. Because of the difference in density between warm and cooler ocean water, cooler ocean water sinks and warmer ocean water floats. This is caused due to the heat and mass transfer between particles of the ocean. The answer is letter C. The sun’s radiation does not extend below a certain depth; therefore, deeper ocean water is colder than surface water.</span>

Physics question, answer completely with work
Alenkasestr [34]

The force is 2.0 N east

Explanation:

The impulse exerted by a force is defined as the product between the force itself and the time interval during which the force is applied. Mathematically, it is equal to the change in momentum experienced by the object on which the force is acting:

I=F\Delta t = \Delta p

Where

I is the impulse

F is the force

Delta t is the time interval during which the force is applied

\Delta p is the change in momentum

In this problem,

\Delta t = 3.0 s is the time interval

I=6.0 N\cdot s (east) is the impulse

Therefore, the magnitude of the force is

F=\frac{I}{\Delta t}=\frac{6.0}{3.0}=2.0 N

And the direction is the same as the impulse (east).

A force of 100N is applied to an area of 100mm².what is the pressure exerted on the area in N/m².​
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

P = 1000000[Pa] = 1000 [kPa]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the definition of pressure, which is equal to the relationship of force over area.

P=F/A

where:

P = pressure [Pa] (units of pascals)

F = force = 100 [N]

A = area = 100 [mm²]

But first we must convert the units from square millimeters to square meters.

A=100[mm^{2}]*\frac{1^{2} m^{2} }{1000^{2}mm^{2}  } =0.0001[m^{2} ]

Now replacing:

P=100/0.0001\\P=1000000[Pa]
