nata0808 [166]

One way that the world's ocean affects weather and climate is by playing an important role in keeping our planet warm. ... The ocean doesn't just store solar radiation; it also helps to distribute heat around the globe. When water molecules are heated, they exchange freely with the air in a process called evaporation.

Hey can anyone please help me with this it’s due in few hours and I’m stuck with ittt

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

Check body of the explanation

Explanation:

Ooook, quick theory rushdown. if you're at a depth of h in a tank of a fluid, the pressure is the sum of the atmosferic pressure (if the tank is open on top) plus a term which is the product of acceleration of gravity - about $10 ms^-^2$ , the density of whatever you're sinking in, and the depth at which you are. In formula, $p(h) = p_0 + \rho g h$ , and the pressure is the same for every point of the tank at the same depth.

At this point, we can start answering!

1a. The pressure at A is - not counting atmosferic pressure - $1000 * 10 * 1 = 10^4 Pa$ , while in B is $1000*10*2 = 2*10^4 Pa$ , so it's half of it.

1b. The two points are at the same depth, so the pressure is the same - they would be even if the two cilinders weren't linked!

1c. Ditto. Same depth? same pressure!

1d. Usual equation, this time density is 800. Pressure is $800*10*2 = 1,6*10^4 Pa$ : Since the density is 4/5 of water, the pressure is also 4/5 of the one exerted by water

2a. The volume is simply the product, so $4m*3m*2m = 24m^3$

2b. Density is defined as mass over volume, so you simply multiply the volume you found earlier by the density of paraffine: $800* 24 = 1,92 *10^4kg$

2c. Weight is defined as the mass of something times the acceleration due to gravity, in our case it's $1.92 *10^4 kg * 10 ms^{-2} = 1.92 * 10^5 N$

2d. $\rho gh$ again, what a surprise! $800 {kg \over m^3} * 10 {N \over kg}} * 2 m = 1,6* 10^4 {N\over m^2} =1.6*10^4 Pa$

3. Yet again, $\rho gh$ . $1000 {kg \over m^3} * 10 {N \over kg}} * 2 m = 2* 10^4 {N\over m^2} =2*10^4 Pa$

Part a consider a bird that flies at an average speed of 10.7 m/s and releases energy from its body fat reserves at an average r

Alex787 [66]

<span>436 km The conversion factor between kilocalorie/hour and watts is 1.163 (1 kcal/hr = 1.163 watt). So let's convert the energy consumption of the bird from watts to kcal/hr 3.7 w / 1.163 w hr/kcal = 3.18 kcal /hr 1 gram of fat has 9 kcal, so the total number of kcals consumed will be 4 * 9 = 36. So the bird can fly for 36/3.18 = 11.32 hours The distance traveled will be 11.32 h * 3600 s/h * 10.7 m/s / 1000 m/km = 436 km</span>
