Describe how the ocean influences climate by storing heat and water? Give one example to justify your answer.

1 answer:

7 0

The sun light that received by the water in the ocean will increase the average temperature of the water and make it warmer.
With the help of wind and current, the warm water will spread out to another region, and increasing the average temperature in that region and affecting its overall climate.
Example The temperature rise in Valdivia<span>, Chile and in Beijing, China after receiving warm water from arctic.</span>

There are Z protons in the nucleus of an atom, where Z is the atomic number of the element. An α particle carries a charge of +2

qaws [65]

Answer:

$r = 2.84 \times 10^{-14} m$

Explanation:

As per energy conservation we know that the electrostatic potential energy of the charge system is equal to the initial kinetic energy of the alpha particle

So here we can write it as

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{k(2e)(ze)}{r}$

now we know that

$m = 1.67 \times 10^{-27} kg$

$e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} C$

z = 79

here kinetic energy of the incident alpha particle is given as

$KE = 6.4 \times 10^{-13} J$

now we have

$6.4 \times 10^{-13} = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(1.6 \times 10^{-19})^2(79)}{r}$

now we have

$r = 2.84 \times 10^{-14} m$

Fission is the process of creating energy by

Colt1911 [192]

<h2>Answer: The separation of the components of the nucleous of the atom </h2><h2> </h2>

The n<u>uclear fission</u> consists of dividing a heavy nucleus into two or more lighter or smaller nuclei, by means of the <u>bombardment with neutrons to make it unstable. </u>

Then, with this division a great release of energy occurs and the emission of two or three neutrons, other particles and gamma rays.

It should be noted that in the process, the emitted neutrons can interact with new fissionable nuclei that will emit new neutrons and so on. Effect better known as chain reaction.

A circular window of 30 cm diameter in a submarine can withstand a maximum force of 5.20 × 105 N. The maximum depth in a lake to

Svetach [21]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

F = $5.20 \times 10^{5}$ N

g = 9.8 m/s

radius = $\frac{diameter}{2}$

= $\frac{30 cm}{2}$ = 15 cm = 0.15 m (as 1 m = 100 cm)

Formula to calculate depth is as follows.

F = $\rho \times g \times h \times A$

or, h = $\frac{F}{\rho \times g \times A}$

h = $\frac{5.2 \times 10^{5}}{1000 \times 9.8 \times (3.1416 \times (0.15 m^{2})}$

= 751 m

Thus, we can conclude that the maximum depth in a lake to which the submarine can go without damaging the window is closest 750 m.

A bowling ball with a mass of 9kg is thrown down a lane with a constant speed of 3 m/s. The ball hits the 1.5kg pin, initially a

olasank [31]

Answer:

M1 V1 = M1 V2 + M2 V3 conservation of momentum

V2 = (M1 V1 - M2 V3) / M1 where V2 = speed of M1 after impact

V2 = (3 * 9 - 1.5 * 5) / 9 = (27 - 7.5) / 9 = 2.17 m/s

Note: All speeds are in the same direction and have the same sign

While standing on a balcony a child drops a penny. The penny lands on the ground floor 1.5 s later. How fast was the penny trave

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

14.7 m/s.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Time (t) = 1.5 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s².

Height = 11.025 m

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Initial velocity (u) =?

We, can obtain the initial velocity of the penny as follow:

H = ½(v + u) t

11.025 = ½ (0 + u) × 1.5

11.025 = ½ × u × 1.5

11.025 = u × 0.75

Divide both side by 0.75

u = 11.025/0.75

u = 14.7 m/s

Therefore, the penny was travelling at 14.7 m/s before hitting the ground.
