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.

How far will a 70N crate is move with 3500J of work
r-ruslan [8.4K]
Work = Force * distance
Force = 70 N
Work = 3500 J

3500 = 70d
d = 3500/70 = 50 m

If the moon is a full moon tonight what will be the moon one week later waxing or waning
tatiyna

-- Starting from nothing (New Moon), the moon's shape grows ('waxes')
for half of the cycle, until it's full, and then it shrinks ('wanes') for the next
half of the cycle.

-- The moon's complete cycle of phases runs 29.53 days . . . roughly
four weeks.

-- So, beginning from New Moon, it spends about two weeks waxing until
it's full, and then another two weeks waning until it's all gone again.
 
-- After a Full Moon, the moon is waning for the next two weeks.  So it's
definitely <em>waning</em> at <em><u>one week</u></em> after Full.

Mars has two moons, Phobos and Deimos. Phobos orbits Mars at a distance of 9380 km from Mars's center, while Deimos orbits at 23
Sloan [31]

Answer:

The ratio is   \frac{T_1}{T_2}  = 3.965

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  radius of Phobos orbit is  R_2 =  9380 km

    The radius  of Deimos orbit is  R_1  =  23500 \  km

Generally from Kepler's third law

    T^2 =  \frac{ 4 *  \pi^2 *  R^3}{G * M  }

Here M is the mass of Mars which is constant

        G is the gravitational  constant

So we see that \frac{ 4 *  \pi^2  }{G * M  } =  constant

   

    T^2 = R^3   *  constant      

=>  [\frac{T_1}{T_2} ]^2 =  [\frac{R_1}{R_2} ]^3

Here T_1 is the period of Deimos

and  T_1 is the period of  Phobos

So

      [\frac{T_1}{T_2} ] =  [\frac{R_1}{R_2} ]^{\frac{3}{2}}

=>    \frac{T_1}{T_2}  =  [\frac{23500 }{9380} ]^{\frac{3}{2}}]

=>    \frac{T_1}{T_2}  = 3.965
