When less saline water enters a marginal sea above a return flow of saltier water, the circulation pattern is called:?

Mediterranean circulation


The Mediterranean sea is nearly disconnected from the main ocean. There is also less rain or freshwater from rivers supplementing it than evaporation. This causes the sea to have higher salinity of > 38 ppt than the open ocean's 34-36ppt.

By what factor would your weight increase if you could stand on the sun? (never mind that you can't.)
Fofino [41]

Gravity on the surface of sun is given as

g = \frac{GM}{R^2}

here we know that

M = 1.98 \times 10^{30} kg

R = 6.95 \times 10^8 m

now we will have

g = \frac{(6.67 \times 10^{-11})(1.98 \times 10^30)}{(6.95 \times 10^8)^2}

g = 273.4 m/s^2

now we need to find the ratio of weight on surface of sun and on surface of Earth

R = \frac{mg_{sun}}{mg_{earth}}

R = \frac{273.4}{9.8} = 28 times

so weight will increase by 28 times

If 180 grams of potassium iodide is dissolved in 100 cm3 of water at 30oC, a(n) _______________ solution is formed. A) saturated
kenny6666 [7]

Answer: D)supersaturated

Explanation: Solubility is defined as the amount of solute in grams which can dissolve in 100 g of the liquid to form a saturated solution at that particular temperature.

At 30^0C , the solubility of KI is 153g/100 ml.

Thus if 180 grams is dissolved, it contains more amount of solute than it can hold at that that temperature, and thus is supersaturated solution.

A saturated solution is a solution containing the maximum concentration of a solute dissolved in the solvent. ​The additional solute does not dissolve in a saturated solution.

An unsaturated solution is solution in which the solute concentration is lower than its equilibrium solubility.

A supersaturated solution is one that has more solute than it can hold at a certain temperature.

The spreading of waves behind an aperture is more for long wavelengths and less for short wavelengths.Less for long wavelengths
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Increase in wavelength of incident wave also increases the spread angle or spread of the interference pattern.

Explanation:

Solution:-

- The diffraction occurs when light bends in the same medium. The bending is the result of light waves "squeezing" through small openings or "curving" around sharp edges.

- Moreover, waves diffract best when the size of the diffraction opening (or grting or groove) corresponds to the size of the wavelength. Hence, light diffracts more through small openings than through larger openings.

- The formula for diffraction shows a direct relationship between the angle of diffraction (theta) and wavelength:

                                         d sin (θ) = m λ

Where,

     λ : Wavelength , θ : The spread angle , d : Slit opening or grating

- We can see that the wavelength λ and spread angle θ are related proportionally. So if we increase the wavelength of incident wave we also increase the spread angle or spread of the interference pattern.

A car changes speed from 25 m/s to 10 m/s in 240 seconds. Describe its acceleration.​
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Explanation:

Acceleration is change in velocity over change in time:

a = Δv / Δt

a = (10 m/s - 25 m/s) / (240 s - 0 s)

a = -0.0625 m/s²

So the car decelerates at 0.0625 m/s².

A straight wire segment 2 m long makes an angle of 30degrees with a uniform magnetic field of 0.37 T. Find the magnitude of the
Fittoniya [83]

Answer : 0.814 newton

Explanation:

force (magnetic) acting on the wire is given by

F= ? , I=2.2amp , B = 0.37 T

F = B i l sin (theta) = 0.37 x 2.2 x 2x 0.5 = 0.814N
