5. The atmosphere is heated both by the Sun and by the Earth's surface. Water radiates heat differently than land, so the air te

mperature over the ocean is usually different than the air temperature over land.
The difference in air temperature over land compared to over water causes convection currents in the atmosphere. How would a person at the beach experience these convection currents?
They would feel the heat of the Sun.
They would feel that the water is cold.
They would feel that the sand is hot.
They would feel wind as the air moves.

seropon [69]
<span>Science is always defined as the body of knowledge and linked to something related to the physical world, phenomena and lives of everything that exist on Earth. Science is categorized in various ways.  Pure, practical or theoretical, is the largest distinction of  science or whether science is applied.  Generally, pure science is subdivided into Physical sciences, Earth sciences, and Life sciences.  Physical sciences deal with energy and matter, Earth sciences explain Earth’s phenomena, to the solar system where it belongs and its atmosphere. And finally, life sciences describe internal processes of living organisms, its relationship to each other and to its environment.</span>

What happens to air pressure as altitude decreases
Ksivusya [100]
Pressure decreases with increasing altitude. The pressure at any level in the atmosphere may be interpreted as the total weight of the air above a unit area at any elevation. At higher elevations, there are fewer air molecules above a given surface than a similar surface at lower levels.

An automobile starter motor has an equivalent resistance of 0.055 Ï and is supplied by a 12.0 v battery which has a 0.0305 Ï int
LiRa [457]
12 V is the f.e.m. \epsilon of the battery. The potential difference that is applied to the motor is actually the fem minus the voltage drop on the internal resistance r:
\epsilon - Ir
this is equal to the voltage drop on the resistance of the motor R:
RI
so we can write:
\epsilon - Ir = RI
and using r=0.0305~\Omega and R=0.055~\Omega we can find the current I:
I= \frac{\epsilon}{R+r}=140~A

10 turns of wire are closely wound around a pencil as shown in the figure. when measured using a scale as shown, the length of t
Mila [183]

Answer:

a. The thickness of the wire is 2.5 mm.

b. The wire is 0.25 cm thick.

Explanation:

Number of turns of the wire = 10

The length of total turns = 25 mm

a. The thickness of the wire can be determined by;

thickness of the wire = \frac{length of total turns}{number of turns}

                           = \frac{25}{10}

                           = 2.5 mm

Therefore, the wire is 2.5 mm thick.

b. To determine the thickness of the wire in centimetre;

10 mm = 1 cm

So that,

2.5 mm = x

x  = \frac{2.5}{10}

   = 0.25 cm

The wire is 0.25 cm thick.
