Answer:

These deep-ocean currents are driven by differences in the water's density, which is controlled by temperature (thermo) and salinity (haline). This process is known as thermohaline circulation.

Compare and contrast the energy transfer of a roller coaster to that of a pendulum

Softa [21]

When the pendulum and roller coaster move to the top, its has more potential energy whereas when comes to the bottom has more kinetic energy.

<h3>Compare and contrast the energy transfer of a roller coaster to that of a pendulum:</h3><h3>What is the transfer of energy in a roller coaster?</h3>

The transfer of potential energy to kinetic energy occur when the roller coaster move along the track. As the motor pulls the cars to the top, the body has more potential energy whereas when the body comes to the bottom , it has kinetic energy in the object.

<h3>What is the energy transfer in a pendulum?</h3>

As a pendulum swings, its potential energy changes to kinetic energy and kinetic energy changes into potential energy. At the top more potential energy is present.

So we can conclude that When the pendulum and roller coaster move to the top, its has more potential energy whereas when comes to the bottom has more kinetic energy.

Acceleration of a free-falling object in a frictionless environment increases as a function of time.

Digiron [165]

A free-falling object is an object moving under the effect of gravitational forces alone

The correct option to select for the True or False question is False

The reason the above selected option is correct is as follows:

According to Newton's second law of motion, we have;

Force = Mass × Acceleration

The force of gravity is $F_{g} =G \cdot \dfrac{M \cdot m}{r^{2}}$

Where;

$G \cdot \dfrac{M }{r^{2}} = Acceleration \ due \ to \ gravity , \ g \approx 9.81 m/s^2$

m = The mass of the object

∴ The force acting on an object in free fall, $F_g$ = m × g

Therefore the acceleration of an object in free fall is the constant acceleration due to gravity, and it therefore, does not change with time

The correct option for the question, acceleration of a free-falling object in a frictionless environment increases as a function of time is <u>False</u>

<u></u>
