Sammy feels an ocean breeze as he plays volleyball at the beach. Why do ocean winds or sea breezes blow toward shore during the

day? Question 2 options: Air over the beach heats up, rises and is replaced by ocean air. Earth's rotation causes air to blow toward land. he energy of the ocean storms push air toward shore. Ocean air is less dense, so it rises to replace air over the land.

The heat coming from the sun warms the land more quickly than the sea. As a result of these, the air near the land warm up and rises and the cooler air from the sea moves in to replace the risen air. The correct answer is option A

There will be heat transfer from a region of higher temperature to the region of lower temperature. But in the case of land and sea breeze, the transfer of heat are the result of convectional current in nature. Because the land is a better absorber of heat and also has a lower specific heat capacity compare to sea, during the day, the heat coming from the sun warms the land more quickly than the sea. As a result of these, the air near the land warm up and rises.

The cooler air from the sea moves in to replace the risen air.

Why do ocean winds or sea breezes blow toward shore during the day ? It is because air over the beach heats up, rises and is replaced by ocean air.

Therefore, option A is correct

James Joule (after whom the unit of energy is named) claimed that the water at the bottom of Niagara Falls should be warmer than
Molodets [167]

Answer:

0.12 K

Explanation:

height, h = 51 m

let the mass of water is m.

Specific heat of water, c = 4190 J/kg K

According to the transformation of energy

Potential energy of water = thermal energy of water

m x g x h = m x c x ΔT

Where, ΔT is the rise in temperature

g x h =  c x ΔT

9.8 x 51 = 4190 x ΔT

ΔT = 0.12 K

Thus, the rise in temperature is 0.12 K.
