Answer:
Density is the amount of mass in a specified space. It is a way to measure how compact an object is
Explanation:
The part of a river that would have animals with muscular bodies and adaptations that let survive in turbulent water is in the transition zone, the mid-transition zone to be precise.
Water at the source zone possesses a lot of potential energy and as it flows from the upper reaches the potential energy is turned into kinetic energy when the course of the river begins to gradually level out and this translates into increase in velocity. By the time river water reaches the middle of the transition zone, most of the potential energy would have been turned into kinetic energy and thus water velocity would be quite high here.
Animals living here would develop muscles because of constantly fighting against the strong current to avoid being swept downstream.
Answer:
These deep-ocean currents are driven by differences in the water's density, which is controlled by temperature (thermo) and salinity (haline). This process is known as thermohaline circulation.
Explanation:
Answer:
e. Both the acceleration and net force on the car point inward.
Explanation:
If no net force acts on the car, the car must drive in a straight line, at constant speed.
As the acceleration is defined as the rate of change of the velocity vector, this means that it can produce either a change in the magnitude of the velocity (the speed) or in the direction.
In order to the car can follow a circular trajectory, it must be subjected to an acceleration, that must go inward, trying to take the car towards the center of the circle.
The net force that causes this acceleration, aims inward, and is called the centripetal force.
It is not a different type of force, it can be a friction force, a tension force, a normal force, etc., as needed.
