Wind-driven currents are found NEAR THE SURFACE of the oceans

Explanation:

Surface currents are at the interphase between the hydrosphere and atmosphere. Therefore the feel the greatest effect of drag by wind currents, especially prevailing winds (that blow predominantly in one direction like westerlies and easterlies) within the lower atmosphere.  The deep currents, on the other hand, are more influenced by Coriolis effect of the earth’s rotation. It is these differences in influences of surface and deeper currents that cause Ekman transport in oceans.

lilavasa [31]

Answer: Analog transfer information quicker, example electromagnetic waves which are used in our modern day phones.

Explanation:  Digital signals are a more reliable form of transmitting information because an error in the amplitude or frequency value would have to be very large in order to cause a jump to a different value. Signals are composed of infinite possible values. Signals are composed of only two possible values: 0 or 1.

aleksley [76]

Answer:

0.023 Ohms

Explanation:

Given data

Length= 2.8m

radius= 1.03mm

current I= 1.35 A

voltage V= 0.032V

We know that from Ohm's law

V= IR

Now  R= V/I

Substitute

R= 0.032/1.35

R= 0.023 Ohms

Hence the resistance is 0.023 Ohms

a concrete slab 20 m long and weighing 400,000 N is supported by one pillar. If a 19,600 N car is parked 8 meters from one end.
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

let the distance of pillar is "r" from one end of the slab

So here net torque must be balance with respect to pillar to be in balanced state

So here we will have

Mg(r - L/2) = mg(L/2 - 8)

here we know that

mg = 19600 N

Mg = 400,000 N

L = 20 m

from above equation we have

400,000(r - 10) = 19,600 (10 - 8)

r - 10 = 0.098

r = 10.098 m

so pillar is at distance 10.098 m from one end of the slab
