Yes. When two things are directly prortional, that means that as one increases, the other increases at the same rate. So, say you have a 2kg object at an acceleration of 2m/s^2. The force would be 4N. If you have a 3kg object at an acceleration of 2m/s^2, the force would be 6N. If two things are inversely proportional, that means that as one thing increases the other decreases at the same rate. A good example of this is in a chemical reaction. If you increase the surface area of the reactants, the reaction time decreases. They are inversely proportional.
Ok so I’m going to break it up so it’s a bit easier to read through:
The colours are from the different rocks and minerals that make up the sand.
The little fragments of rock come from for example surrounding mountains.
It could also because sand is simply the product from erosion of the rocks rubbing each other under the action of the waves.
So if the bottom of the ocean is made of black lava for example in Hawaii, there’s a good chance of the sand being black.
In California, the sand usually looks white because it has minerals like quartz and pieces of shell that are made of calcium carbonate.
Hope this helps :)
Answer I'm not quite sure if this is right, but maybe it's because Jessica put her thermometer deeper in the stream, and Javier put his more up.
