Cool ocean air causes a cool climate.

Explanation:

A large body of water such as an ocean influences climate by causing cool ocean air to cause cool climate.

The world's climate results from the sun's energy and the vast ocean circulation pattern that results from this.

Around the equator, the sun receives direct sunlight and this warms the air around the ocean.
The air wells up with vapor and moves away to the land area.
As it moves over land, it loses moisture.
This cold air becomes denser and sinks to the surface bringing in a cool climate
The cool climate brings dryness with it.

A solid, uniform disk of radius 0.250 m and mass 45.2 kg rolls down a ramp of length 5.40 m that makes an angle of 17.0° with th

serious [3.7K]

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of the disk, r = 0.25 m

Mass, m = 45.2 kg

Length of the ramp, l = 5.4 m

Angle made by the ramp with horizontal, $\theta=17^{\circ}$

Solution,

As the disk starts from rest from the top of the ramp, the potential energy is equal to the sum of translational kinetic energy and the rotational kinetic energy or by using the law of conservation of energy as :

(a) $mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2+\dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2$
