use the facts that water has a higher specific heat than rock (such as Granite) to explain the differences in the temperature curves for the two cities in the graph.

Answers

Answer 1

Since water has a high specific heat, that results in water being able to store/require more energy in order to change it’s temperature. Since San Francisco is so close to water, that would mean that it’s temperature should vary less since water would be able to keep the temperature around the same value even if there was an increase or decrease in thermal energy.

With radiocarbon dating, scientists compare an object's carbon-14 levels with _____. the carbon-14 levels of an object from the same time period carbon-14 levels in the atmosphere the carbon-14 levels in the rock surrounding the object the object's carbon-12 levels

Answers

Answer:carbon-14 levels in the atmosphere

Explanation:

When carrying out radiocarbon dating, the level of carbon-14 in a sample is compared with the level of carbon 14 in the atmosphere because, objects exchange carbon-14 with the atmosphere.

Comparison of the activities of carbon-14 in the atmosphere and in the sample gives the age of the sample since the half-life of carbon-14 is a constant.

Using the formula M=dx v, Calculate the mass of a liquid with a density of
17.5 g/mL and a volume of 7mL.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 122.5 g

Explanation:

The mass of a substance when given the density and volume can be found by using the formula

mass = Density × volume

From the question

volume = 7 mL

density = 17.5 g/mL

We have

mass = 17.5 × 7

We have the final answer as

122.5 g

4.The discovery of optics gave scientists instruments such as microscopes and telescopes.

Answers

Answer:

The discovery of optics gave scientists instruments such as microscopes and telescopes.

Explanation:

The period between the 16th-8th century was called the period of the scientific revolution. At this time, the foundations  of our modern science was laid.

One of the characteristic of this period was the emphasis on the scientific method which upheld results from reproducible experiments.

Nicolaus Copernicus, Francis Bacon and Isaac Newton were leading names in this period.

It was within this period that the discovery of optics gave scientists instruments such as microscopes and telescopes and scientific  examination of the celestial bodies was launched.

A ball initially at rest is dropped from a window sill 14.2 m off the ground. Find the velocity of the ball the moment it hits the ground. Round your answer to 2 decimals places.

Answers

Answer:

16.68 m/s

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Height (h) = 14.2 m

Initial Velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Final velocity (v) =?

Thus, the velocity (v) with which the ball hit the ground can be obtained as follow:

v² = u² + 2gh

NOTE: the acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

v² = u² + 2gh

v² = 0² + 2 × 9.8 × 14.2

v² = 0 + 278.32

v² = 278.32

Take the square root of both side

v = √278.32

v = 16.68 m/s

Therefore, the velocity with which the ball hit the ground is 16.68 m/s

Which statement best supports the idea that water conservation is important for human societies?

OA Once humans use water, it cannot be reused ever again,

OB. Only about 1% of the freshwater on Earth is easily accessible.

OC Water is constantly being lost from the hydrosphere

OD. Most land animals use salt water instead of freshwater.

Answers

Answer:

Only about 1% of the freshwater on Earth is easily accessible.

Explanation:

Freshwater accounts for a minimal proportion of water resources on planet earth. About 70 percent of the world surface area  is covered by water, but only  about 2.5 percent of this mass of water is fresh. The remaining are marine or salt water. Amazingly, just about 1 percent of this  freshwater is easily accessible. The other 1.5% is trapped in glaciers and snowfields.

This underscore the need for water conservation on the planet since fresh water is a scarce resource and people living in many areas have no access to fresh water.

B. Neap tides happen during winter and summer.

C. Neap tides could be described as low high tides and high low tides.

D. A neap tide is the period halfway between tides when the tide changes direction.

Thank you!

Answers

Answer:

D. A neap tide is the period halfway between tides when the tide changes direction. (correction) Answer : C

Explanation:

Process of elimination can be used. First off, A is incorrect because neap tides have the smallest tidal range ; spring tides would fit this choice. B is incorrect since neap tides are specific to the first, and third quarter moons when the sun and moon are right angles. C is wrong because it is the other way around since high tides are a little higher than average and low tides are a little lower than average (correction) this is correct since higher low tides and lower high tides are closer together and have a smaller tidal range than standard tides(spring tides) with higher high tides, and lower low tides. D is correct because they occur halfway between the spring tides (correction): incorrect since a neap tides occur around a week(7 days) after a spring tide(moderate tides). There is no evidence this is true.

There are three patterns: diurnal(one high and low tides a day), semidiurnal(two high and low tides a day), and mixed(two high and low tides a day of different lengths).

The spring and neap tides are the types of tides involved with the low and high tides.
