5 0

The correct answer is D. The land warms faster that the ocean.

Explanation

According to the statement the heat capacity of the sea is greater than that of the land, this means the sea needs more heat to increase its temperature in comparison to the land and therefore  when the sun shines on a coastal town the land warms or increases its temperature faster than the sea, because the sea has a greater heat capacity. This can be explained as the masses of water are bigger than the terrestrial surface and are influenced by the currents which diffuses heat. So, the correct answer is D. The land warms fsater than the ocean.

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

Side = 10 cm, side = 5 cm, side = 6 cm

Explanation:

Triangle is made up of three line segment. Three line segment can form a triangle only when sum of two small line segment is more than the third line segment.

a. Side = 10 cm, side = 5 cm, side = 6 cm

5 cm + 6 cm  = 11 cm > 10cm

In the first option, the sum of two small sides is more than the third size, hence it will form a triangle.

Other options do not fulfil the same criteria, so they will not form a triangle.

Hence, the correct answer is "Side = 10 cm, side = 5 cm, side = 6 cm".
