As per the information given, there's most probability that the air over the lake will reach its highest temperature later in the day and will stay warm longer than air over the ground.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to the concepts of the specific heats capacity of matter; it is observed that water possesses high specific heats capacity as compared to metals and other solids. Water takes much more time to absorb heat from the atmosphere and the same way takes time while releasing it into the atmosphere.

Whereas, solids and most metals have the tendency to quickly absorb and release the heat. Hence, it seems that the student may observe the rise in temperature for the air over the water lake later in the day which will stay warm longer than the air over the ground.

Which of the statements best describes density?
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: letter D.

Explanation:

a.The mass that a mole of substance has, measured in grams per mole.  Density is not measure in moles, so this is not the correct answer.

b.The amount of substance dissolved in a liquid, measured in moles per liter.  The substance dissolved in a liquid must be measure in grams not in moles, so this answer is incorrect.

c.The mass of substance dissolved in a liquid, measured in grams per milliliter.  I think that this definition is correct but is incomple, so this answer is wrong.

d.The ratio of a substance's mass to its volume, measured in grams per milliliter and also equivalent to grams per cubic centimeter. This is the right description to density, so this is the correct answer.

Which statement best explains how a planet affects the orbit of a comet as the comet passes by the planet?
mezya [45]
Comets orbit the sun just like planets do. Except a comet usually has a very elongated orbit. Thanks to the laws of gravity comets obey the same laws. A comets orbit takes it very close to the sun and then far away again.
