The curved surface shown in figure 2-1 is caused by the property of water known as surface tension. Surface tension arises from the cohesive forces between water molecules, which create a "film" at the surface that resists external force. This phenomenon leads to the meniscus effect, where the curvature of the surface is influenced by the interaction between water molecules and the container's walls, resulting in a concave or convex shape.
Oval? Circle? Something to that effect.
the larger the surface area you have, to more heat that you are going to lose.
False. Wind plays a significant role in climate by redistributing heat and moisture across the Earth’s surface. It influences weather patterns, ocean currents, and the distribution of ecosystems. Changes in wind patterns can significantly affect local and global climates, including phenomena like El Niño and La Niña.
The total surface area increases.
It will cool the earth's surface as radiation from the sun is blocked from entering the atmosphere
They both can change the size of Earths Surface
yes
It doesnt effect the earths surface, it affects the the earth surface by expanding cracks in the ground.
The oceans have a major effect on climate around the globe.
they affect by the sand
the greenhouse effect!
lava effects the earths surface by destroying it and building it up
Earth's rotation causes the Coriolis effect, which deflects surface currents to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere. This creates the circular patterns of surface currents in the oceans known as gyres. These gyres help transport heat and nutrients around the planet, influencing global climate and marine ecosystems.
The "downward" on the "curved surface" is a 3D model to explain and visualize the effect.
It's called Coriolis force.
By slowing down the earths rotation but will not make effect to humans .
