B Longitude

Explanation:

The line of longitude or longitude does not affects climates.

Climate is the weather condition over a place for a long period of time. It usually takes several years to delineate the climate of an area.

Longitude is the distance on the earth surface that runs form east to west.
All lines of longitude are all great circles.
Latitude are lines from north to south on the earth surface. Only the equator is a great circle.
Latitude affects climate. In fact based on the division of lines of latitude on can predict climatic patterns on earth.
Proximity to water bodies also affects climatic condition because of the effect of land and sea breeze and other climatic factors.
Elevation affects climate a whole lot. Physiography of a place determines the weather to a very large extent.

Which measurement is a potential difference? A.115J B.115V C.115N D.115C

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Potential difference has a SI Unit of Volt and its symbol is V. Hence answer is B.

A is wrong as it has the unit Joule (J) which is the SI unit for energy.

C is wrong as it has the unit Newton (N) which is the SI unit for force.

D is wrong as it has the unit Coulomb (C) which is the SI unit of charge.

If you see a sedimentary rock outcrop and red layers of sand are on top of pale yellow layers of sand, what do you know for sure

neonofarm [45]

Answer: The yellow layer is definitely older than the red layer

Explanation: According to Nicolaus Steno's law of superposition and original horizontality. Older rocks underlie younger rocks.

Sedimentary rocks are usually deposited in horizontal layers in which each stratigraphic layer is laid down before another can be deposited upon it.

The red layer, in addition to being older, is also likely to have undergone intense oxidation due to earlier exposure.

When hydrogen is fused into helium, energy is released from Choose one: A. the increase in pressure. B. the decrease in the grav

Tatiana [17]

The nuclear fusion of hydrogen atoms releases a huge amount of energy. So the correct choice is C. Conversion of mass to energy.

What is nuclear fusion?

When two small nuclei join to form a new nucleus, then this process is termed nuclear fusion. A huge amount of energy is released when there occurs nuclear fusion between the two nuclei. And a new element is formed.

It has been observed that the amount of energy released in nuclear fusion is equal to the mass difference between the mass of the formed nucleus and the total mass of old nuclei. Hence in the nuclear fusion of hydrogen nuclei to form a helium nucleus, the energy is released due to the conversion of mass into energy.

The pressure is increased to make the hydrogen atoms fuse but this change in pressure does not contribute to the energy released in the fusion of hydrogen.

The magnitude of the gravitational field is too low and it does not contribute to the energy released in the fusion of hydrogen.

The gravitational collapse does not occur between the two hydrogen atoms. This phenomenon occurs in celestial bodies so this also does not contribute to the energy released in the fusion of hydrogen.
