Western coast is frequented by the cold californian current which reduces the temperature.

Southern Alaskan coast is frequented by Warm Alaskan current which increases the temeprature of the coast.

Eastern coast is frequented by Warm Gulf Stream which increases the temperature of the coast.

Explanation:

Oceanic current (Gulf stream) increases the temperature of the coastal region along the Eastern Coast of the US mainland. Gulf stream represents the system of warm oceanic current. This current causes excessive hot conditions in the US mainland.

West Coast of the US is frequented by Cold Californian current and warm Alaskan current. Hence, the Californian current decreases the temperature of the western coast of the US and cause atmospheric stability in the region.

Southern Alaska is frequented by the warm Alaskan current which raises the temperature of the southern Alaskan coast.

Answer:

Technician B

Explanation:

The brakes can lockup due to the following reasons

1) Overheating break systems

2) Use of wrong brake fluid

3) Broken or damaged drum brake backing plates, rotors, or calipers

4) A defective ABS part, or a defective parking mechanism or proportioning valve

5) Brake wheel cylinders, worn off

Technician A says high resistance causes an increase in current flow. Technician B says a higher than

Kryger [21]

The correct statement is: a higher than a normal voltage drop could indicate high resistance. Technician B is correct.

Ohm's law states that the current flowing through a metallic conductor is directly proportional to the voltage provided all physical conditions are constant. Mathematically, it is expressed as

V = IR

Where

V is the potential difference

I is the current

R is the resistance

<h3>Technician A</h3>

High resistance causes an increase in current flow

V = IR

Divide both side by I

R = V / I

Thus, technician A is wrong as high resistance suggest low current flow
