<span>The question says, what drives surface current. The correct option is A, that is wind. There are two different current system in the ocean, they are deep circulation and surface circulation. Surface current is majorly driven by the wind. The wind is capable of moving the top 400 meters of the ocean, thereby creating ocean surface current. The pattern of the surface current is determined by the direction of the wind, forces from the earth rotation and the position of the landform that interact with the current.</span>

how much is need to lift a load of 100n placed at a distance of 29 cm from fulcrum if effort is applied at 60cm from the fulcrum
dangina [55]

Answer:

206.8965517 n

Explanation:

First, we need to see that 60:29 is 2.078965517:1. Then we need to multiply the energy put 29 cm from the fulcrum by 2.078965517, giving us the end result of our answer.

Determine the inductance l of a 0.55-m-long air-filled solenoid 2.7 cm in diameter containing 9000 loops.
faltersainse [42]

Self inductance of a solenoid does not depend on magnetic field or current. When deriving the equation you can see that its self inductance is only dependent on geometric factors

Using a flowchart, discuss how a tsunami develops?​
Ahat [919]

Answer:

A tsunami is a sequence of particularly long water waves that can spread over very great distances and, as such, cause water to move.

When penetrating into areas of shallow water, the sea is compressed and thus piles up on the coasts to form several high tidal waves. These carry the water with great force far over the shoreline and usually cause great damage. During the subsequent retreat, the material carried away on the flooded land, often also people and animals, is mostly washed far out into the ocean.

Tsunamis occur as a result of sudden water displacement, such as when parts of the ocean floor are raised or lowered during an undersea earthquake or when large masses of earth and rock slide into the water as well as due to violent winds.

According to Newton's first Law of motion, it takes forces to be balanced to move an object from its resting position.
Snowcat [4.5K]
False. First Law of Newton states that object tends to be at rest until an external force is applied and vice-versa.
