The answer that best fits the blank is the word SATELLITES. It is the satellites that are used to determine the measurement of the ocean-surface height differences. This is used in Ocean Surface Topography wherein the sea surface is affected by both ocean circulation and gravity.

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Satellite

Differences in ocean-surface height can be measured by<u> Satellite</u>

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • The topography of the ocean or the height of the ocean surface relative to a level of no motion provides the information on tides, and the distribution of heat and mass in the Earths's oceans.
  • <em><u>The ocean topography is measured using satellites altimeter. Satellites use radar altimeters that are specially made to measure the height of the ocean surface.  The satellites measure the height of the ocean surface with an accuracy of 3 cm relative to the center of the earth.</u></em>
  • Satellite altimeter combines precise orbit determination with accurate ranging by a microwave altimeter of ocean distance to the satellite.

What causes light to bend when it moves from one transport medium to another
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

The bending of light as it passes from one medium to another is called refraction. The angle and wavelength at which the light enters a substance and the density of that substance determine how much the light is refracted. The bending occurs because light travels more slowly in a denser medium.

hope this helped :))

The thermal energy used by heater in 3 minutes is used to melt wax.Melting point of solid wax is 60.Specific heat of wax is 220j
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

m = 35 g

Explanation:

The specific heat of a material can be calculated by the following formula:

C = \frac{Q}{m}\\

where,

C = Specific Heat of Wax = 220 J/g

Q = Amount of Heat Supplied by the Heater = 7700 J

m = mass of wax melted = ?

Therefore,

220\ J/g = \frac{7700\ J}{m}\\\\m = \frac{7700\ J}{220\ J/g}\\

<u>m = 35 g </u>

The drawing shows 6 point charges arranged in a rectangle. The value of q is 2.83 uC and the distance d is 0.123 m. Find the tot
vova2212 [387]

the total electric potential at location P, which is at the center of the rectangle is 0V.

The charges placed at the corner of the rectangle are same in magnitude but different in charge. hence the total electric potential will be same in  magnitude but different in charge and will be cancelled. Similarly, all the total electric potential will be cancelled and resultant will be zero.

<h3>What is total electric potential?</h3>
  • The amount of labor required to convey a unit of electric charge from a reference point to a given place in an electric field is known as the electric potential (also known as the electric field potential, potential drop, or the electrostatic potential).
  • More specifically, it is the energy per unit charge for a test charge that is negligibly disruptive to the field under discussion. In order to prevent the test charge from gaining kinetic energy or radiating, the travel across the field is also meant to occur with very little acceleration.
  • The electric potential at the reference location is, by definition, zero units. Any point may be used as the reference point, but typically it is earth or a point at infinity.

At what water temperature will additional heat energy need to be added before the temperature will change again?
Katyanochek1 [597]
That would be 0 degrees Celsius aka the melting point of water.... If you look at the diagram I attached you notice that at 0 degrees Celsius it is flat, this is because much heat is needed at this point for water to rise to 1 degree... It is the same for the boiling point (100)

Hope this helps! (If correct, please rank as brainliest answer) :)
