Surface currents in the ocean are driven by global wind systems that are fueled by energy from the sun. Patterns of surface currents are determined by wind direction, Coriolis forces from the Earth's rotation, and the position of landforms that interact with the currents.

nignag [31]
<span>A climate cycle in the Pacific Ocean with a global impact on weather patterns is called El Nino. The cycle begins when warm water in the western tropical Pacific Ocean and shifts eastward along the equator toward the coast of South America.
La Nina has cooler temperatures, not warmer ones. Temperature inversion is just a simple change of temperature. And global warming doesn't fit here as it is not a type of current.</span>

Question 3 (1 point
Virty [35]

Answer:

AB = 5.8 units

Explanation:

The distance of line segment AB shown in the attachment below can be calculated using the distance formula, d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}, assuming that each box in the graph equals 1 unit.

A(2, 4)

B(-3, 1)

Let,

A(2, 4) = (x_1, y_1)

B(-3, 1) = (x_2, y_2)

Plug in the values into the distance formula

d = \sqrt{(-3 - 2)^2 + (1 - 4)^2}

d = \sqrt{(-5)^2 + (-3)^2}

d = \sqrt{25 + 9}

d = \sqrt{34}

d = 5.8 (nearest tenth)

AB = 5.8 units
