Shutter speed is associated with what?
It is associated with the length of time a photosensitive surface is exposed to light.
Why do things not fly off the surface of the earth when it spins at such high speed?
Gravity. If you jumpin the air you don't fly.
Why do seismic waves speed up beneath the surface of continents?
Because earths crust is denser than the mantle
Why do seismic waves change speed?
"True, the Seismic Waves change speed and direction when they encounter different materials."
What type of map would most likely be used to depict the speed and direction of ocean cuttent?
That type of map is called a thematic.
How is a surface current different from a deep water current?
Different pressure levels will vary speed and direction
How do you determine the speed of an ocean current?
The same method is used for both surface and submerged currents: you place a measuring instrument in the current to be measured, and you observe and note its progressions.
What is the mean speed of the Agulhas Current?
The mean speed of the flow of the Agulhas Current is estimated to be 0.5 to 1.4 miles per hour. The current is located in the southwest Indian Ocean.
Does the ramp surface effect the speed of a car?
yes, of course different surface different amount of friction
Why is the surface wind speed and upper atmosphere wind speed over Hawaii different?
Surface wind speed is slower because there is friction to slow it down, whereas upper atmosphere wind speed is unobstructed.
Which is not about a wave in the open ocean?
The waves in the open ocean are usually caused by the friction of the winds over the open ocean of water. The waves in the ocean vary in strength and size depending with the speed of wind and the friction with the surface of water.
Which is not true about a wave in the open ocean?
The waves in the open ocean are usually caused by the friction of the winds over the open ocean of water. The waves in the ocean vary in strength and size depending with the speed of wind and the friction with the surface of water.
In the sense that as the earth's surface is heated by the light from the Sun it is heated unequally describe how this heat energy is redistributed globally?
Through deep ocean currents and atmosphere currents i.i the elnemo (high speed jet wind current) circulating the globe.
What are The movements of water and what causes them?
The movements of the earth's waters move in different ways each one having a distinct characteristic and a different cause. Waves A wave is a disturbance that propagates through space and time, usually with transference of energy. Surface ocean currents The water at the ocean surface is moved primarily by winds that blow in certain patterns because of the Earth's spin and the Coriolis Effect. Winds are able to move the top 400 meters of the ocean creating surface ocean currents.Surface ocean currents flow in a regular pattern, but they are not all the same. Some currents are deep and narrow. Other currents are shallow and wide. Currents are often affected by the shape of the ocean floor. Some move quickly while others move more slowly. A current can also change somewhat in depth and speed over time. Density Currents Density differences often prevail between tributaries and receiving lakes and reservoirs. Upwelling An Upwelling is an oceanographic phenomenon that involves wind-driven motion of dense, cooler, and usually nutrient-rich water towards the ocean surface, replacing the warmer, usually nutrient-depleted surface water. Tides Tides are the cyclic rising and falling of Earth's ocean surface caused by the tidal forces of the Moon and the Sun acting on the oceans
What is the maximum current of the pole changing motor when running at low speed and high speed?
The maximum current of the pole changing motor when running at low speed and high speed depends on a few different things. The average when begin at low speed and using high speed is 1800 RPM points.
What is the difference between a poleward moving current and a equatorward moving ocean current?
The interaction between the oceans surface and the circulation of the lower atmosphere is the primary cause of the surface currents in the oceans. A current generally refers to the horizontal movement of water. The direction, speed, and the temperature of the water masses moved by the ocean currents play an important role in climatology by transporting heat energy. Currents may be small-scale, transient features, resulting from seasonal or local effects or large-scale, permanent features, covering vast portions of the oceans, resulting from atmospheric circulation patterns
Average speed is indicated on the speedometer?
I would call it current speed, not average speed.
