Answer: The causes of ocean currents include wind, water temperature/salinity and natural disasters.
Explanation:
A current or circulation is the unified movement of water across the ocean. A Surface current affects the topmost layer of seawater and is defined by the direction of the wind while Deep Currents reach the sea floor though a combination of surface currents and landforms.
Water temperature and salinity cause currents by changing water density which in turn results in deep ocean currents circulating the seawater.
Other conditions that cause strong currents are storms and earthquakes which introduces particles into the seawater.
Answer: TRUE.
Explanation: "Glory" is an optical phenomenon caused by water droplets, consisting of concentric rings and somewhat similar to a rainbow.
The glory consists of one or more concentric, successively dimmer rings, each of which is red on the outside and bluish towards the centre.
In order to see a glory, therefore, the clouds or fog causing it must be located below the observer, in a straight line with the Sun/Moon and the observer's eye.
Colored rings appearing surrounding the shadow of an aircraft flying above a cloud is sometimes called The Glory of the Pilot.
Answer:
Visible light range (between 400 and 800 nm).
Explanation:
The Sun emits a large range of electromagnetic waves, from gamma rays (higher frequencies) to radio waves (lower frequencies), through X-rays, ultraviolet rays, visible light, infrared radiation, microwaves. The peak of the Sun's energy output is actually in the visible light range (between 400 and 800 nm).
In the graph I annexed, you can see a simplified representation of the energy emissions of the Sun versus the wavelengths of those emissions. The y-axis shows the amount of energy emitted at a given wavelength and the x-axis represents different wavelengths of EM radiation. In this graph is observable than the major emission of radiation emitted by the Sun is in the visible range.
I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
Catalysts lower the activation energy for reactions. The lower the activation energy for a reaction, the faster the rate. Thus enzymes speed up reactions by lowering activation energy. ... The binding of a substrate to an enzyme active site is termed the "enzyme-substrate complex.
Answer:
period of time before the credit card company starts charging interest
Explanation:
The grace period is the period of time before the credit card company starts charging interest.
Let's say the billing cycle on your credit card goes from the 17th of May to the 17 of June. Starting May 18, you enter a new cycle... and you can charge any amount of purchases (respecting your limit of course) and not pay a single cent in interest if you pay your bill in full and on time on the 17 of June. That's the smart way to use a credit card... to extent the period you have to pay your purchases.
