Winds blowing across the ocean surface push water away. Water then rises up from beneath the surface to replace the water that was pushed away. This process is known as “upwelling.”
Upwelling occurs in the open ocean and along coastlines. The reverse process, called “downwelling,” also occurs when wind causes surface water to build up along a coastline and the surface water eventually sinks toward the bottom.
Water that rises to the surface as a result of upwelling is typically colder and is rich in nutrients. These nutrients “fertilize” surface waters, meaning that these surface waters often have high biological productivity. Therefore, good fishing grounds typically are found where upwelling is common.
Answer:
In coin card experiment smooth card is used so that the card can slide easily from glass
Answer:
Explanation:
Time dilation formula is
T = T₀ / √ 1-v²/c²
T₀ is time elapsed in moving reference , T time elapsed in stationary reference.
Here T₀ = 1 second
T = 1/√ 1-0.9² = 1/.4358 = 2.3 second
So 2.3 second will pass for each second on moving reference.
The International Astronomical Union (IAU) downgraded the status of Pluto to that of a dwarf planet because it did not meet the three criteria the IAU uses to define a full-sized planet. Essentially Pluto meets all the criteria except one—it “has not cleared its neighboring region of other objects.
Answer:
0.65 kg*m/s and 0.165 kg*m/s
Explanation:
Step one:
given data
mass m= 0.5kg
initial velolcity u=1.3m/s
final velocity v= 0.97m/s
Required
The change in momentum
Step two:
We know that the expression for impulse is given as
Ft= mv
Ft= 0.5*1.3
Ft= 0.65 kg*m/s
The expression for the change in momentum is given as
P= mΔv
substitute
Pt= 0.5*(1.3-0.97)
Pt= 0.5*0.33
Pt=0.165 kg*m/s
