Answer:

Earth rotation= Surface currents (coriolis effect)

Both temperature and difference in water density cause DEEP ocean currents

Near top is obviously surface ocean

Near ocean floor= Deep

and there isnt wind in the water is it? So Wind= Surface ocean

Answer: This is What drives ocean currents

- Surface is primarily driven by wind (friction from wind transfers energy and momentum to surface water)

- Deep is slower, driven primarily by density (salinity and temperature) differences

- Thermocline: dramatic temp drop 50 m from surface bc sun can't shine

- Halocline: dramatic gradient in saline, increase as it deepens

- Pycnocline: resulting change in density (50-1000)

What continents lie mostly north of the equator
photoshop1234 [79]

North America and Europe lie entirely north of the equator. Almost all of Asia, most of Africa, and a part of South America are above the equator. Not sure if South America counts as 'mostly' though. That's up to you.

When the football is snapped, which player will have the smallest change in kinetic energy?
DanielleElmas [232]
When you are finding the kinetic energy, it is best to keep this formula in mind.

Ek = 1/2mv²

Where m is mass and v is velocity. Basically sub the numbers in to find the kinetic energy for each. In this case, subbing all the numbers, the smallest change in kinetic energy is the Lineman with a kinetic energy of just 540N.
