Answer:

At a sunny day at the beach, the top of the sand is warm. The radiation from the Sun heats up the surface of the sand, but sand has a low thermal conductivity, so this energy stays at the surface of the sand.

It is winter in Puerto Rico. Compare the air temperatures beachgoers feel near the water
Leviafan [203]
Large amounts of water do have a big impact on the weather: indeed, it takes less energy to warm/cool land than water.
Therefore, places near large amounts of water tend to have smaller differences in temperature between summer and winter than places far from waters.

Hence, during winter in Puerto Rico, alongside the coast, the temperature will be higher than in the innermost parts of the island.

A block weighing 10 newtons is resting on a plane inclined 30° to the horizontal. What is the magnitude of the normal force acti
aleksley [76]

Magnitude of normal force acting on the block is 7 N

Explanation:

10N = 1.02kg

Mass of the block = m = 1.02 kg

Angle of incline Θ =  30°

Normal force acting on the block = N

From the free body diagram,

N = mgCos Θ

N = (1.02)(9.81)Cos(30)

N = 8.66 N

Rounding off to nearest whole number,

N = 7 N

Magnitude of normal force acting on the block = 7 N

likoan [24]

Answer: 1175 J

Explanation:

Hooke's Law states that "the strain in a solid is proportional to the applied stress within the elastic limit of that solid."

Given

Spring constant, k = 102 N/m

Extension of the hose, x = 4.8 m

from the question, x(f) = 0 and x(i) = maximum elongation = 4.8 m

Work done =

W = 1/2 k [x(i)² - x(f)²]

Since x(f) = 0, then

W = 1/2 k x(i)²

W = 1/2 * 102 * 4.8²

W = 1/2 * 102 * 23.04

W = 1/2 * 2350.08

W = 1175.04

W = 1175 J

Therefore, the hose does a work of exactly 1175 J on the balloon

A wave x meters long has a speed of y meters per second. The frequency of the wave is
Sergio [31]
The correct answer is (b.) y/x hertz. That is because the formula to get the frequency is f =  v / w. The following values (v=y meters / second; wavelength = x meters) must be substituted to the equation, which leaves you y/x hertz.
