The movement of deep ocean currents is mainly caused by:?

Answers

The relationship between the density of ocean water and the formation of deep currents. Difference in the tempature and salinity and the resulting differences in density cause variations int he movement of deep currents. For example, the deepest current , The Antarctic Bottom Water, is denser than the North Atlantic Deep Water. Both currents spread across the ocean floor as they flow toward eachother. Because less dense water always flows on top of denser water, The north Atlantic Deep Water flows on top of the Atlantic Bottom Water when the currents meet.

Compare relative age with absolute age.

Answers

Answer & Explanation:

Relative age is the age of a rock layer (or the fossils it contains) compared to other layers. It can be determined by looking at the position of rock layers. Absolute age is the numeric age of a layer of rocks or fossils.

Spaceship 1 and Spaceship 2 have equal masses of 300kg. They collide. Spaceship 1's final speed is 3 m/s, and Spaceship 2's final speed is 2 m/s in the same direction. What is their combined momentum? A. 600 kg-m/s B. 1,500 kg-m/s C. 1,200 kg-m/s D. 900 kg-m/s

Answers

Answer:

B. 1500 kg*m/s

Explanation:

Momentum p = m* v

In any type of collision, the total momentum is preserved!

The total momentum before and the total momentum after the collision is the same. We know the mass and speed after the collision so we can calculate the total momentum.

p1 + p2 =

m1*v1 + m2*v2

m1 = me = 300 kg

v1 = 3 m/s

v2 = 2 m/s

Substitute the given numbers:

300*3 + 300+2

900 + 600

1500 kg*m/s, which is answer B.

A class of students is modeling how waves propagate through a medium. Each student in the class represents particle in the medium. An envelope represents the energy transferred by the wave. Which of the following scenarios would accurately model a wave propagating from one side of the room to the other?

Answers

C: "The students pass the envelope from one student to the next until it travels across the room."

To quote ck12, "The particles of the medium just vibrate in place. As they vibrate, they pass the energy of the disturbance to the particles next to them, which pass the energy to the particles next to them, and so on."

Jenny puts a book on her desk. she lifts the book up with her finger, using a force of 0.5N .The cover is 10cm wide .calculate the turning moment on the cover of the book

Answers

The turning moment on the cover of the book is 0.05 Nm.

Explanation:

Given:

Force applied (F) = 0.5 N

Distance covered (d) = 10 cm

Converting Distance covered from cm to meter we get (d)= 0.1 m

To find:

Turning Moment (M) on the cover of the book = ?

Formula to be used:                                    

Turning Moment (M) = F × d

                                  = 0.5 × 0.1

                                   = 0.05 Nm

Thus the turning moment on the cover of the book is found to be 0.05 Nm

The orientation of which of the following does not influence the phases of the moon?a.
Earth

c.
Sun

b.
the moon

d.
Stars

Answers

So we want to know what is not influencing the phases of the Moon. What influences Moon phases are celestial bodies that are close enough to have enough gravitational force to have an influence. Those celestial bodies would be the Earth and the Sun, since moon itself cant influence itself and all other stars are too far to exert gravitational force. So the correct answer would be the Moon and the stars do NOT have an influence on the Moon phases.

Answer:

So the correct answer would be the stars do NOT have an influence on the Moon phases.
