What best describes why warm ocean currents usually surface currents

1 answer:

3 0

Surface currents are caused by winds. They move warm water away from the equator and cool water away from the poles.

Hope it help

A squirrel drops an acorn onto the head of an unsuspecting dog. The acorn falls 4.0\,\text m4.0m4, point, 0, start text, m, end

kirill [66]

Answer:

0.903 seconds

Explanation:

To find how many seconds the acorn fall, we can use the formula for distance travelled with constant acceleration:

D = Vo*t + a*t^2/2,

where D is the distance travelled, Vo is the inicial speed, t is the time and a is the acceleration.

In our problem:

Vo = 0,

a = g = 9.81 m/s2,

D = 4 meters.

So, we can solve the equation to find the time:

4 = 0*t +9.81*t^2/2

4.905*t^2 = 4

t^2 = 4/4.905 = 0.8155

t = 0.903 seconds

A large, cylindrical water tank with diameter 3.60 m is on a platform 2.00 m above the ground. The vertical tank is open to the

zysi [14]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the geometry of a cylindrical tank and its respective definition.

The volume of a tank is given by

$V = \frac{\pi d^2}{4}h$

Where

d = Diameter

h = Height

Considering that there are two stages, let's define the initial and final volume as,

$V_0 = \frac{\pi d^2}{4}H$

$V_f = \frac{\pi d^2}{4}h$

We know as well by definition that

$1gal = 3.785*10^{-3}m^3$

Then we have for the statement that

$V_f = V_0 -1gal$

$V_f = V_0 - 3.785*10^{-3}$

Replacing the previous data

$\frac{\pi d^2}{4}h = \frac{\pi d^2}{4}H- 3.785*10^{-3}$

$\frac{\pi (3.6)^2}{4}h = \frac{\pi (3.6)^2}{4}(2)- 3.785*10^{-3}$

Solving to get h,

$h = 1.99963m$

Therefore the change is

$\Delta h = H-h$

$\Delta h = 2- 1.99963$

$\Delta h = 3.7*10^{-4}m=0.37mm$

Therefore te change in the height of the water in the tank is 0.37mm
