Complete question:

It is measured that 3/4 of a body's volume is submerged in oil of density 800kg/m³. What is the specific gravity of oil?

Answer:

The specific gravity of the oil is 0.8.

Explanation:

Given;

density of the oil, $\rho_o$ = 800 kg/m³

density of water, $\rho_w$ = 1000 kg/m³

The specific gravity of any substance is the ratio of the substance density to the density of water.

Specific gravity of the oil = density of the oil / density of water

Specific gravity of the oil = 800/1000

Specific gravity of the oil = 0.8

Therefore, the specific gravity of the oil is 0.8.

Answer:

Jet stream would be displaced southwards causing heavy rain and flooding.

Explanation:

The other options of the question were A) Jet stream would be displaced northwards causing drought. B) Jet stream would be displaced southwards causing drought. D) Jet stream would be displaced northwards causing heavy rain and flooding,

The statement that is a likely impact of stronger than normal trade winds in the Pacific Northwest to the United States is "Jet stream would be displaced southwards causing heavy rain and flooding."

We are talking about climate or weather terminology. In this case, we are referring to the "El Niño" (the Children) effect. Its presence affects the weather in North America. This phenomenon combines with the "La Niña) effect and it presents itself every two to seven years, ad they last from 8 to 12 months, affecting the weather conditions of the region.

Answer:

$-4.941*10^8J.$

Explanation:

To solve this exercise it is necessary to take into account the concepts related to gravitational potential energy, as well as the concept of perigee and apogee of a celestial body.

By conservation of energy we know that,

$\Delta U = \Delta_{perogee}-\Delta_{Apogee}$
