Seasonal changes in water temperature tend to remain within a narrow range. This is opposed to air temperature, which tends to f

luctuate across a wide range. The relative stability of ocean temperatures helps to regulate the temperatures of coastal regions. Why can water remain within a narrow range of temperatures?

It is because of the high specific heat of water.

Specific heat is the amount of heat needed to change the temperature of unit mass of a substance by one degree.

Specific heat of water is 4.186 kJ/kg K and that of air is 1 kJ/kg K. Thus, a given amount of heat will cause more change in the temperature of air than that of water.

A stone is dropped into a deep well and hits the water after 3.41 seconds. How deep is<br> The well?
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

57.0 m

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

t = 3.41 s

a = 9.8 m/s²

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (0 m/s) (3.41 s) + ½ (9.8 m/s²) (3.41 s)²

Δx = 57.0 m

A mass suspended from a spring bobs up and down one complete cycle every 2 s. its period is?
lilavasa [31]

The period is 2 seconds.

A period is a time taken to make one simple harmonic motion. It can be described as time divided by how many waves do. We can write the period formula as

T = t / n

where T is period, t is time and n is the amount of simple harmonic motions.

From the question above, we know that the mass travel up and down, it means that the cycle is one simple harmonic motion.

n = 1

t = 2s

Hence

T = t / n

T = 2 / 1

T = 2 second

A receiver catches a football on the 50.0 yard line and is tackled 5.42 seconds later on the 12 yard line. What
tester [92]

Answer:

7.01yard/sec

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial position  = 50yard

Final position = 12yard

Time  = 5.42s

Unknown:

Average speed of runner  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem;

        Speed  = \frac{distance}{time}  

Distance covered  = Initial position  - final position  = 50 - 12  = 38yards

So;

       Speed  = \frac{38}{5.42}   = 7.01yard/sec
