on? (2 points) Question 14 options: 1) The currents deflect to the right due to the rotation of Earth. 2) The change in gravitational forces causes currents to move towards right. 3) The deflection of winds to the left causes the currents to move in the opposite direction. 4) The altered wind speed due to Earth's rotation causes the movement of ocean water.Which of these statements best explains why the ocean currents in the Northern hemisphere tend to move in the clock-wise direction?

Answer: Option (1) is the correct option that is currents deflect to the right due to the rotation of Earth.
Explanation:
The water on the surface of ocean is moved by winds that blow in certain direction because of the Coriolis effect and spinning of the Earth that's why ocean currents in the Northern hemisphere tend to move in the clock-wise direction.
I believe sam's response is correct. When human is riding a moving target with constant speed over a period of time, we tend to have a visual acceleration perception due to our optical movement. This make people such as Carrie believes that the carousel horses are accelerating while it actually stayed at constant pace.
Electrons in a hydrogen atom must be in one of the allowed energy levels. If an electron is in the first energy level, it must have exactly -13.6 eV of energy.
