Answer:
8.2 x 106^-11
Explanation:
To begin this problem you must remember the basic rule of scientific notation, which is, must be between 1-10. .000000000082 is much smaller than 1. However by moving the decimal 11 spots to the right, we can make it 8.2
Continue to move the decimal to the right until the value is in the 1-10 range. Make sure to count the moves to the right.
Once the decimal is in the right spot count the spots moved.
Since the number is wayyy smaller than the answer given the number will be negative 10^-11, in order to make it what is was before.
a is the answer because all of the other answers are wrtong
Answer:
Depth and location affect ocean water’s temperature.
Explanation:
The main source of heat for the oceans is solar radiation. That is, water is basically heated by the radiation of the Sun, which transmits energy to the surface. The ocean absorbs this energy and stores it. Seawater has high caloric capacity. This means that more energy and more time is needed to change or increase the water temperature, compared to the air temperature. Similarly, once the ocean heats up, it takes a long time for the water to completely release or lose that heat.
The temperature decreases to greater depth, because the amount of solar radiation is reduced. On the contrary, it is greater where there is greater energy or heat content.
The closer a place is to the equator, the solar energy will affect more vertically and with more intensity on it, so the warmer the temperatures will be. The further that point of the equator is found, the solar energy will reach it with a smaller angle. And if the point is near the poles, the sun's rays will arrive at a very small angle. This causes the temperature of the water of the oceans to vary depending on the earth's latitude, being higher in areas close to the equator and the tropics, and colder the closer to the poles or the further away from the temperate zones.
