The source of alpha particles in a smoke detector is the Americium.
Answer: Dunes are formed through the interaction of mountains and wind. The wind picks up quartz grains from the mountains in the area to form the dunes and these are reshaped by the same process over time.
In the Terrestrial ecosystem, examples might include the following such as tempature, light and water. In the Ocean Ecosystem, abiotic factors would include salinity and ocean currents
The correct answer is Thermal Equilibrium
Explanation:
The term "thermal equilibrium" is used when two or more objects have the same temperature and therefore there is not an exchange of heat between them. This occurs when the objects had a different temperature at the beginning but due to a close contact heat is transferred from one object to the other until an equilibrium or same temperature is reached. For example, a hot cup over a table or any other surface will transfer the heat to the surface, but after some time both the cup and the surface will have the same temperature or will reach thermal equilibrium.
