Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

Because water has higher specific heat capacity than water, land usually gets heated and loses heat faster than water.

During a warm day, the air above land gets heated quickly more than the air above water. This warm, less dense air above land begins to rise, creating a low pressure in the process. This paves way for the denser, cold air above water to replace the vacuum created by the warm air above land.

<em>The directional movement of air from water to land is what is known as the sea breeze in coastal areas.</em>

Please help me, this is a physics test.

Answer:

a = 2 [m/s²]

Explanation:

To be able to solve this problem we must make it clear that the starting point when the time is equal to zero, the velocity is 5 [m/s] and when three seconds have passed the velocity is 11 [m/s], this point is the final point or the final velocity.

We can use the following equation.

v_{f}=v_{o}+a*t\\

where:

Vf = final velocity = 11 [m/s]

Vo = initial velocity = 5 [m/s]

a = acceleration [m/s²]

t = time = 3 [s]

11 = 5 + a*3\\6=3*a\\a= 2[m/s^{2} ]

A complete circuit is often referred to as a(n) _______ circuit
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Complete Circuit

Explanation:

A circuit is defined as a completed path for voltage to flow from a source of voltage through a load and back to the source. A complete circuit or path is often referred to as a(n) ? circuit. Before current can flow in a circuit, the circuit must be closed. 100% right

A rock falls from rest off a cliff and hits the ground in 2 seconds. If there is no air resistance, determine the rock's velocit
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

19.6m/s

Explanation:

A Rock falling off a cliff can be modeled as an object starting with  zero velocity moves with constant acceleration for certain period of time, for such motion following equation of motion can be used.

v(t) = v_{0} +at

here in our case v_{0} =0 because object starts off from rest and a = g =9.8m/s^2 is acceleration because of gravity ( Motion under gravity).

and of course t = 2 second.

Now by substituting all this information in equation of motion we get.

v(2s) = 0+9.8m/s^2 *2s = 19.6m/s

that would be the velocity of rock as it would hit the ground.

Note! We have assumed that there is no air resistance.
