Ocean Tides

The Moon effects the tides by pulling at the water (like a magnet competing with another magnet which is the Earth in this case). The Earth's gravitational pull prevents the moon from pulling land (but not as well in terms of the water) which produces a total of two high and low tides a day by the Moon's position in the Sky causing a 'Bulging' effect which creates high tides on one side of the planet and low tides on the other. Also there are special tides which effects the Earth's water and these are called "Spring" and "Neap" tides. The Spring tides only occur when the Moon is full or New and also aligned with the Sun and Earth which produce very High tides and very Low tides (again depending on the position of the Moon at the time). The Neap tides are occurs when the gravitational pulls of both the Sun and the Moon (when it's in the quarter phase) are 'perpendicualr' (which means at right angles to each other), which cancels out this 'bulging' effect thus producing minimal differences between the tides on either side of the planet. There is also a very rare type of tide called the Proxigean Spring tide which occurs when the Moon is unusually close to Earth (This event is called Proxigee) in it's 'New Phase' and between the Sun and the Earth which causes very high tides to form. This phenomenom occurs every 1.5 years (at most).

The ocean's large volume and high heat capacity cause it to heat up more slowly than the land. This is because water can absorb and store more heat energy than air or land mass. Additionally, the mixing of cooler and warmer water layers in the ocean can slow down the overall warming process.

The time it takes to heat up glass will depend on factors such as the thickness of the glass, the temperature of the heat source, and the method of heating (e.g., oven, torch). Generally, glass can heat up fairly quickly, but for safety and to prevent cracks, it's advisable to heat glass gradually and evenly over a few minutes.

The term "spring tide" comes from the concept of the tide "springing forth" or rising higher than normal. It is believed to have originated from the German or Dutch words meaning "to leap" or "to burst forth." Spring tides occur when the sun, moon, and Earth are aligned, causing higher-than-normal tidal ranges.

High tides, low tides, spring tides (which are maximum high tides) and neap tides (which are the lowest of low tides).

The water depth at Pasir Gudang Sea Port in Malaysia can vary at high tide due to tidal fluctuations. It is recommended to check with the port authorities or use official nautical charts for the most accurate and up-to-date information on water depth during high tide in this area.

Salinity is the amount of salt in the water.

The salinity varies with the location where the sample is taken . Example being , north & south poles where melting ice dilutes the oceans , or river estuaries where fresh water mixes with salt water from the oceans . Difference will be found in the zones around the equator , just because of the fact of higher precipitation from higher evaporation of the oceans surface . In general the salinity varies from 33-37ppt , with average 35ppt .

Surely extremes could be found but they will not be the form . One such example is the Black sea with 16ppt , that is caused from the many large rivers diluting it.

1 gram of salt and 999 grams of water, the salinity is 1 part per thousand, or 1 ppt

Spring tide:A tide with the Greatest different between high and low tide that occurs when the sun and the moon are aligned with Earth at the new moon and full moon.

Neap tide:A tide with the least different between low and high tide that occurs when the sun and moon pull at right angles to each other at the first and third quarters of the moon.

Hope i Helped :)

Low water marks are caused by water levels dropping due to evaporation or downstream water consumption. High water marks are caused by an increase in water level due to heavy rainfall, snowmelt, or rapid inflow of water from tributaries, resulting in flooding.

High rugged land is often referred to as mountainous terrain, characterized by steep slopes, rocky surfaces, and challenging to navigate. These areas can be inhospitable to vegetation and wildlife, making them more prone to erosion and landslides. People living in such areas may face difficulties in agriculture, construction, and transportation due to the challenging topography.

Spring tides are formed by the constructive interference of bulges created by the moon and sun. Spring tides occur when the Sun, Moon, and Earth are aligned.

Neap tides are formed by the destructive interference of bulges created by the moon and sun. Neap tides occur when the Sun, Earth, and Moon align to make a right angle.

Spring tides are therefore larger than neap tides, new moons and full moons occur in the spring tide but the 1st qauter of the moon and 3rd quarter of the moon occur in neap tides...

When the water is closest to the beach, it is high tide. High tide is when the water level is at its peak, covering more of the beach area. Low tide is when the water level is at its lowest, exposing more of the beach.

Vacate refers to leaving a place or property, usually temporarily or by following specific procedures or agreements, whereas abandoning land typically implies a permanent relinquishment of ownership or control without any intention of returning or maintaining the property. Vacating land may involve proper notification or legal steps, while abandoning land often results in the property being unused and neglected.

The gravitational pull of the moon on Earth's oceans causes tides to occur. The moon's gravitational force creates high tides by pulling water toward it, and low tides on the opposite side of the Earth. This tidal movement helps regulate ocean currents, supports marine ecosystems, and influences various coastal processes.

Depends on how much salt is actually in the water. Too much salt can cause all kinds of health problems.

Yes and no. If you drink an 8 ounce glass of water mixed with one teaspoon of salt, it can keep you from dehydrating. If you drink saltwater from the ocean, your body required more water to digest the salt that you get from the saltwater making you more dehydrated than you were. Too much salt in the water you drink will dehydrate the cells in your body and will dehydrate the host (you) and can kill you.

When picturing the way sound travels in air, picture a big speaker cone. We've probably all seen one of these things at one time or another when a speaker cover has been removed and the speaker itself is exposed. The cone moves out and in to generate the sound. What's going on? When the cone moves out, it compresses air in front of it. All the gas atoms and molecules in front of the cone are smooshed (compressed) together and the "smooshed gas" (compression wave) moves out away from the speaker. It moves fast, too. Almost 3 ½ football fields a second. When the cone moves in, it creates a place of "unsmooshed" (rarified) gas in front of it, and the "unsmooshed gas" (rarefaction wave) travels out from in front of the speaker the way the compression wave did. A sound wave is an alternate series of compression and rarefaction fronts traveling in air. Comparing a sound wave to a wave traveling on water, the compression wave can be compared to the rising portion, the crest, of the water wave. The rarefaction wave can be compared to the dipping part of the water wave, the trough.

First, on nautical charts, find the chart datum depth. Then find out what the highest astronomical tide height is, add allowance for maximum wave height, thus having the scope (length of chain). From the local tide tables, find out what height low and high tides are (changes daily) thus having tide amplitude. Use hypotenuse formula to find radius of drift.

Low gears provide more torque and are used for starting a vehicle or going uphill, while high gears provide more speed and are used for cruising on flat roads. Shifting to low gear enables a vehicle to move with less effort, while shifting to high gear allows for greater efficiency at higher speeds.

The Sun i think

NO!!! It's the gravitational pull of the MOON!!! As it pull the Earth from opposite sides, it causes the tides. This "pull" on the Earth elongates the Earth by about 8 ft in opposite directions. I really hope you didn't use the SUN answer as your final answer. :)

The answer is....(drumroll, please), 1= Low, 2= High. I have been looking for this answer for awhile because I too lost the instruction book that came with the slow cooker. I did an experiment. Stew and a meat thermometer, and the results were obvious!

Now as to how long the auto-shift stays on high before it shifts to low, I am not sure.

Yes, MB is correct - I went to the proctor silex website and found the user manual. Here's a link to it: http://useandcares.hamiltonbeach.com/files/840036400.pdf

The user manual says that Auto Shift starts cooking on high and finishes on low and that cooking times will be approximately halfway in between high and low cooking times. It doesn't say after how much time it switches. Some of the recipes in the manual give times to cook with Auto Shift.

Tides are produced by gravity from the Moon and the Sun - especially the Moon. The part of the Earth that is nearer the Moon is attracted more strongly than the part that is away from the Moon.

A 40-foot tide indicates the vertical difference in water level between low tide (when the water is at its lowest) and high tide (when the water is at its highest) at a specific location. Tides are primarily influenced by the gravitational forces of the moon and sun on Earth's oceans.

The difference is in the height that the design details extend out from the surface. High reliefe coins tend to not get fully struck up on the high points of the design -- especially in the hair above the ear.

Pictures of the high & low relief coins can be seen on CoinFacts, using the link below.
