Answer:

Correct Answer is B (Differences in temperature)

Explanation:

One of the main cause of ocean current to occur is variation of temperature of different layer of oceanic water.Water which have high temprature is less dense and this Less density water float above the surface of high density water. When this less density water reached on the surface of ocean that time wind which blows on the surface water makes the water cool or in other words we can say that water released  its heat to the surrounding environment. when water becomes cool it again shifted in downward direction and less density water  will moves upward. In this way this process will continue and hence ocean current is created.

. An object has a position given by ~r(t) = [3.0 m − (4.00 m/s)t]ˆı + [6.0 m − (8.00 m/s2 )t 2 ]ˆ , where all quantities are in
kupik [55]

Answer:

(c) 16 m/s²

Explanation:

The position is r(t) = [3.0 \text{ m} - (4.00 \text{ m/s})t]\hat{i} + [6.0 \text{m} - (8.00 \text{ m/s}^2 )t^2 ]\hat{j}.

The velocity is the first time-derivative of <em>r(t).</em>

<em />v(t) = \dfrac{d}{dt}r(t) = -4.00\,\hat{i} -16t\,\hat{j}<em />

The acceleration is the first time-derivative of the velocity.

a(t) = \dfrac{d}{dt} v(t) = -16\hat{j}

Since <em>a(t)</em> does not have the variable <em>t</em>, it is constant. Hence, at any time,

a = -16\hat{j}

Its magnitude is 16 m/s².

Answer:

the angle of incident is 40°

Explanation:

NQ is the normal to the mirror, therefore

angle NQA =90°

PQA = 50°

incident angle = NQA - PQA

90°- 50° = 40°

note that the angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incident
