Physics

spayn [35]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct answer is option C. "The sun heats earth and it’s oceans unevenly".

Explanation:

Ocean water is warmer around the equator than the currents that come farther south of the equator. This phenomenon happens because the sun heats earth and its oceans unevenly since the amount of energy that reaches the Earth is a function of latitude. The equator has a 0 degree latitude, and is at this point at which the Earth receives more heat from the Sun

Approximately how many atoms are there along a 9.5 cm line
Troyanec [42]
First convert 5.5 cm to meters.

(5.5 cm / 1) x (m / 100 cm) = 0.055 m

A typical atom is about 1.0E-10 m in diameter; thus:

0.055 m / 1.0E-10 m = 5.5E8 atoms or 550,000,000 end-to-end atoms in 5.5 cm

Gold has a density of 19.3 grams per cubic centimeter. what is the density of gold in metric tons per cubic meter?
valina [46]
In order to determine this, we will first need some conversions. We will need to convert metric tons and grams into one another and also cubic centimeters to cubic meters into one another.

1 metric ton = 1000 kg

1 kg = 1000 grams

1 metric ton = 10⁶ grams

So 10⁶ grams / metric ton


1 meter = 100 cm
1 m³ = (100)³ cm³
1 m³ = 10⁶ cm³

So 10⁶ cm⁶ / m³

Now, we manipulate the given value:

(19.3 grams / cm³) * (1 metric ton / 10⁶ grams) * (10⁶ cm³ / m³)
= 19.3 metric tons / m³

The density of gold is 19.3 metric tons meter meter cubed.

Biodiversity decline poses a problem in an ecosystem because
iragen [17]

Answer:

Biodiversity decline continues due to a rapidly expanding human population. Habitat is damaged in order to meet growing needs for agriculture, urban development, water and materials. Fish, wildlife and plants are overharvested, despite mounting evidence that many harvesting practices are unsustainable.

_____ is why the earth's interior is layered
Paraphin [41]

Answer: The inner core is solid, the outer core is liquid, and the mantle is solid/plastic. This is due to the relative melting points of the different layers (nickel–iron core, silicate crust and mantle) and the increase in temperature and pressure as depth increases.
