The sun's rays have a greater effect on land temperature than they have on water temperature. This can be explained partly by wh

ich of the following?
(1) Some energy from the sun is used to evaporate ocean water.
(2) Less energy is reflected by the water's surface than by the land's surface.
(3) Land materials have a higher specific heat than water has.
(4) Land Materials require more heat energy than water does to raise their temperature 1 degree Celsius.

Answer:

The answer is choice (3)

Explanation: Land materials do require more energy than water to raise their temperature by one degree, hence why water gets heated a lot easier than something like wood.

larisa86 [58]
Use the Pythagoras for the magnitude and the tan^-1 x = -1 for the angle

displacement = 4^2 + 4^2 = 32 = 4 sqrt(2) =  5.65 km

angle is 135 degrees.

Which of the following is the most accurate statement concerning the properties of matter?
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

b. they can be observed and measured

Explanation:

Matter is anything that has weight and occupy space. There are three states of matter namely Solid, liquid and gas.

The properties of matter are both physical and chemical in nature. Both properties can be measured and observed. Phhysical properties are anything that can be measured without changing the state of the matter. Example of physical properties includes mass, volume, length, color etc.

Chemical properties is another properties of matter. This is the ability of the states of matters to combine with other substance to form a new product for example, rusting of iron, formation of salt etc.

All this as discussed are both measurable and can be observed.

Which of the following statements is TRUE in regards to Signal #2?
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

2) Signal #2 is a digital signal that transmits signals in segments/intervals.

Explanation:

Signals are form of information propagating from the source to a display unit for appropriate interpretation. It can be either in a digital or analogue form.

A digital signal is a definite signal which is discrete in time and amplitude. It is mostly in the form of codes obtained from set of values. Graphically it transmits in the form of 1 and 0, showing a point of maximum amplitude (1) and minimum amplitude (0).

Analog signal is continuous signal describing the variation of two variables with respect to time.

Use Hooke's Law to determine the variable force in the spring problem. A force of 450 newtons stretches a spring 30 centimeters.
ladessa [460]

Answer:

Work Done = 67.5 J

Explanation:

First we find the value of spring constant (k) using Hooke's Law. Hooke's is formulated as:

F = kx

where,

F = Force Applied = 450 N

k = Spring Constant = ?

x = Stretched Length = 30 cm = 0.3 m

Therefore,

450 N = k(0.3 m)

k = 450 N/0.3 m

k = 1500 N/m

Now, the formula for the work done in stretching the spring is given as:

W = (1/2)kx²

Where,

W = Work done = ?

k = 1500 N/m

x = 70 cm - 40 cm = 0.3 m

Therefore,

W = (1/2)(1500 N/m)(0.3 m)²

<u>W = 67.5 J</u>

Metabolic syndrome is characterized by all of the following EXCEPT
worty [1.4K]
The term metabolic syndrome defines a group of risk factors which determine your risk for health issues such as heart disease, a stroke and diabetes. Abdominal weight gain (a), elevated blood fat (c) and insulin resistance (d) are all characteristics which will increase your risk of the above health issues. The only characteristic that will decrease your risk of heart disease, diabetes and a stroke is reduced blood pressure (b). If you have any of these negative characteristics, it is important to work at reducing them; thereby, improving your health.
