Why does a coastal area have less variation in temperature than a noncoastal area

Physics
1 answer:
umka2103 [35]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:the reason is that the heating or cooling capacity of water is much less as compared to land

Explanation:

Coastal area are riverine areas, areas close to rivers,seas or ocean.

Non coastal area are areas not close to the river,they are far from the water body

Coastal area have less variation in temperature because the heating or cooling capacity of water is much less as compared to land

The Shinkansen (bullet train in Japan) makes a trip from Tokyo Station to Kyoto station in 2 hours and 14 min. The distance trav
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

v =  57.2 m/s

Explanation:

The average velocity of the train can be defined as the total distance covered by the train divided by the time taken by the train to cover that distance. Therefore, we will use the following formula to find the average velocity of the train:

v = s/t

where,

s = distance covered = 460 km = (460 km)(1000 m/1 km) = 4.6 x 10⁵ m

t = time taken to cover the distance = 2 h 14 min

Now, we convert it into minutes:

t = (2 h)(60 min/1 h) + 14 min

t = 120 min + 14 min = (134 min)(60 s/1 min)

t = 8040 s

Therefore, the value of velocity will be:

v = (4.6 x 10⁵ m)/8040 s

<u>v =  57.2 m/s</u>

Three basic electrical effects occur when an electric current flows in a conductor: A magnetic field is set up around the conduc
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

A drop in voltage occurs  

Explanation:

When electric current flows through a conduct, there are three basic electrical effects that occur to the conductor;

1. A magnetic field is set up around the conductor,

      A magnetic field is formed around a conductor when current flows through it which makes it acts like a magnet. Application is used in electric bells.

2. Heat is generated, and

     The heating effect of current is due to the conversion of some of the electrical energy that passes through the conductor, into heat energy. Application of heat effect include electric iron, microwave oven, electric bulb, hair straightener etc.

                          H = I²Rt

3. A drop in voltage occurs  

      Voltage drop is as a result of current passing through the impedance  offers by the conductor or circuit elements. When current passes through a conductor, the resistance offers opposition to the flow of the electric current according to Ohm's law.

Forces normal to a particle's displacement do no work.
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

The work done is defined as the product of force applied in the direction of displacement and the displacement.

W = F x d x Cosθ

where, F is the force applied, d be the displacement and θ be the angle between the displacement and force.

For the normal forces, the angle between the displacement and the force applied is 90 degree, and the value of Cos 90 is zero, so the work done is zero.

What do we call changes between solid liquid and gaseous forms of a substance
const2013 [10]

<u>We call changes between solid liquid and gaseous forms of a substance as  phase change or change of state.</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

To change a substance from one state to another, extreme temperatures or pressures are required. Sometimes when a substance doesn't change states we should use all the ideas when that happens. To create a solid, we should decrease the temperature by a huge amount and then add pressure. For example, oxygen will solidify at -361.8 degrees Fahrenheit at standard pressure. However, it will freeze at warmer temperatures when the pressure is increased.

Phase changes happen when a substance reach some special points. Sometimes when a liquid becomes a solid a freezing point or melting point is used to measure the temperature at which a liquid changes into a solid. Some of the phase changes are: Condensation, Freezing, Melting.

A proton with a velocity in the positive x-direction enters a region where there is a uniform magnetic field B in the positive y
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

Positive z direction.

Explanation:

The magnetic force acting on the electron is given by the formula as :

F=q(v\times B)

q is the charge on proton

v is the speed of proton

B is the magnetic field

It is mentioned that the proton is moving with a velocity in the positive x-direction. The uniform magnetic field B in the positive y-direction such taht,

q = +e

v = vi

B = Bj

F=e(v\ i\times B\ j)

Since, i\times j=k

F=(evB)\ k

So, the magnetic force acting on the proton in positive z axis. Hence, the correct option is (d) "positive z direction".
