Question

Which explains how the ocean warms the air?

A.
The seawater absorbs heat from the sun and warms the air above it by convection.

B.
The seawater absorbs heat from the sun and warms the air above it by radiation.

C.
The seawater absorbs heat from the sun and warms the air above it by conduction.

D.
The seawater absorbs heat from the sun and warms the air above it by insulation.

Answer 1

need help!

Answer 4

i call HAAAAX

Answer 5

serious troubl if i get it wrong usually i dont call for help but this is a crisis!

Answer 6

okay joking aside, what do you think the answer is?

Answer 7

d is 100 percent wrong

Answer 8

either b or c they seem the reasonable answers but there is only one answer

Answer 9

okay so you're correct on D being 100% wrong, now tell me why you think A is illogical

Answer 10

no idea i am in so mucj trouble i have to follow gut

Answer 11

much

Answer 12

oh and i kinda rembered it somewhere

Answer 13

okay another question then, do you know the difference between conduction and convection?

Answer 14

yes kinda but i dont have the words to explain it(not a fake excuse!i rember reading this too)

Answer 15

conduction... hmm... heat transferring from one object to another(are these the correct words)

Answer 16

convection? something to do with magnetic pull or something?(i dunno how i forgot this one)

Answer 17

okay yea that's simple enough

Answer 18

convection is wrong though... both conduction and convection are heat transfer

Answer 19

i know

Answer 20

but convection is like "warm air rises as cold air sinks same with water"

Answer 21

but how it works? like the diffrence? i completly forgot that

Answer 22

oh ya i rember that! about the cold air sinking and the warm air rising!

Answer 23

conduction is from one substance to another like a hot block of metal touching ice

Answer 24

so not that..

Answer 25

no you had about the right context not the right words...

Answer 26

This warming-up process mostly takes place during the winter. This is because
water takes much longer than air to heat up and cool down. Since about two
thirds of the planet's surface is ocean, this has a profound effect on climate.
This vast body of water tends to store heat during the summer months, and
slowly release it during the winter, warming up the air above it.

Answer 27

well radiation and insulations is out.. conduction is out so convection? am i right? just checking

Answer 28

am i right? convection?

Answer 29

am i right? i just want to make sure there is no chance losing my test....i already have a b in science

Answer 30

hello?

Answer 31

@hysusonic

Answer 32

yea i'm here, and i'm just stuck between radiation and convection

Answer 33

no wait i believe it's convection because the water would have to be hot to begin with for it to be radiation

Answer 34

well radaition,conduction and insulation is out so convection?

Answer 35

yea i think so not 100% sure though

Answer 36

well only on way to find out...
to fail or not to fail..

Answer 37

is this a 1 question quiz?

Answer 38

no

Answer 39

then check the other ones before submitting it.... it can raise your chances of passing it

Answer 40

too latte fail

Answer 41

dude

Answer 42

wow its actually conduction!

Answer 43

how???? that makes hardly any sense to me

Answer 44

ikr!

Answer 45

and other quesitons that i used soruces were wrong too

Answer 46

which is why you should have checked them

Answer 47

i kinda did?

Answer 48

on sources?

Answer 49

wait i think i know why it's conduction even though the explanation for it makes hardly any sense

Answer 50

imma idiot i could have passes if i didnt follow a source on a question i knew the answer too

Answer 51

what is the reason?

Answer 52

it seems dumb but sun rays heat up the water and the water is touching the air so the heat goes from the sun rays to the water to the air

Answer 53

welp, that seems more ficton than my imagination!

Answer 54

exactly

Answer 55

It is A because the sun is the only source for the sea to get warm

Answer 56

sorry wrong answer we already kinda solved it?
