Ocean currents can be generated by wind, density differences in watermasses caused by temperature and salinity variations, gravity, and events such as earthquakes
Acceleration is any change in speed or direction of motion.
The dimension of speed is [length/time],
so a change is [length/time²].
Popular units include [meter/second²] and [feet/second²] .
________________________
Direction almost always boils down to an angle, (which technically
has no dimensions), so a change in direction is [angle/time] .
Popular units include [radian/second] and [degree/second] .
The nuclear fusion of hydrogen atoms releases a huge amount of energy. So the correct choice is C. Conversion of mass to energy.
What is nuclear fusion?
When two small nuclei join to form a new nucleus, then this process is termed nuclear fusion. A huge amount of energy is released when there occurs nuclear fusion between the two nuclei. And a new element is formed.
It has been observed that the amount of energy released in nuclear fusion is equal to the mass difference between the mass of the formed nucleus and the total mass of old nuclei. Hence in the nuclear fusion of hydrogen nuclei to form a helium nucleus, the energy is released due to the conversion of mass into energy.
The pressure is increased to make the hydrogen atoms fuse but this change in pressure does not contribute to the energy released in the fusion of hydrogen.
The magnitude of the gravitational field is too low and it does not contribute to the energy released in the fusion of hydrogen.
The gravitational collapse does not occur between the two hydrogen atoms. This phenomenon occurs in celestial bodies so this also does not contribute to the energy released in the fusion of hydrogen.

Answer:
Explanation:
I is the moment of inertia of the pulley, α is the angular acceleration of the pulley and T is the tension in the rope. Let a is the linear acceleration.
The relation between the linear acceleration and the angular acceleration is
a = R α .... (1)
According to the diagram,
T x R = I x α
T x R = I x a / R from equation (1)
T = I x a / R² .... (2)
mg - T = ma .... (3)
Substitute the value of T from equation (2) in equation (3)
T is the acceleration in the system
Substitute the value of a in equation (2)
This is the tension in the string.
