Answer:

C

Explanation:

Although this may seem surprising, water beneath the ground is commonplace. Usually groundwater travels slowly and silently beneath the surface, but in some locations it bubbles to the surface at springs. The products of erosion and deposition by groundwater were described in the Erosion and Deposition chapter.

Groundwater is the largest reservoir of liquid fresh water on Earth and is found in aquifers, porous rock and sediment with water in between. Water is attracted to the soil particles and capillary action, which describes how water moves through a porous media, moves water from wet soil to dry areas.

Aquifers are found at different depths. Some are just below the surface and some are found much deeper below the land surface. A region may have more than one aquifer beneath it and even most deserts are above aquifers. The source region for an aquifer beneath a desert is likely to be far from where the aquifer is located; for example, it may be in a mountain area.

The amount of water that is available to enter groundwater in a region is influenced by the local climate, the slope of the land, the type of rock found at the surface, the vegetation cover, land use in the area, and water retention, which is the amount of water that remains in the ground. More water goes into the ground where there is a lot of rain, flat land, porous rock, exposed soil, and where water is not already filling the soil and rock.

The residence time of water in a groundwater aquifer can be from minutes to thousands of years. Groundwater is often called “fossil water” because it has remained in the ground for so long, often since the end of the ice ages.

a 3000 kg and a 7000 kg Mass attract each other with a force of 0.0015 N. What distance separates the two objects (Radius) (Plea
frutty [35]

Answer:

<h3> 3.057m</h3>

Explanation:

According to law of gravitation;

F = GMm/d²

G is the universal gravitation

M and m are the masses

d is the distance between the masses

d² = GMm/F

d² = 6.67408 × 10-11 *3000*7000/0.0015

d² = 140.15568*10^-5/0.0015

d² = 1.4016*10^-3/0.0015

d² = 1.4016*10^-3/1.5*10^-3

d²  = 0.9344*10

d² = 9.344

d = √9.344

d = 3.057m

Hence the distance between the two objects is  3.057m

The amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of a material one degree is
charle [14.2K]
The amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of a material to one degree is called D. its heat capacity.

The relationship of the heat when applied to the object and the change in temperature of the object when heat is being applied is directly proportional to each other. This means that when heat is applied to the object, the temperature of the object increases and when heat is not applied to the object, the temperature of the object decreases.
