He graph above gives the land surface air temperatures and the sea surface water temperatures from 1950 to 2016. Global warming encompasses the changes in climate and temperature around the globe from the oceans to on land. However, when studying the warming of Earth's land and water temperatures, a difference between the two can be observed. From the graph, it can be seen along most of the graph that the water temperature of the sea's surface remained lower than that of the land's surface air temperature. What unique characteristic of water allows for this phenomenon to occur?
What unique characteristic of water allows for this phenomenon to occur? A) water's heat of fusion B) water's conductivity of heat C) water's heat of vaporization D) water's specific heat capacity

Your starship, the aimless wanderer, lands on the mysterious planet mongo. as chief scientist-engineer, you make the following measurements: a 2.50-kg stone thrown upward from the ground at 14.0 m/s returns to the ground in 5.70 s ; the circumference of mongo at the equator is 2.20×10^5 km ; and there is no appreciable atmosphere on mongo. (a) the starship commander, captain confusion, asks for the following information: what is the mass of mongo? (b) if the aimless wanderer goes into a circular orbit 2.20×10^4 km above the surface of mongo, how many hours will it take the ship to complete one orbit? (c) an unmanned spacecraft is in a circular orbit around the moon, observing the lunar surface from an altitude of 44.0 km . to the dismay of scientists on earth, an electrical fault causes an on-board thruster to fire, decreasing the speed of the spacecraft by 23.0 m/s . if nothing is done to correct its orbit, with what speed (in km/h) will the spacecraft crash into the lunar surface?

An astronaut in space cannot use a scale or balance to weigh objects because there is no gravity. but she does have devices to measure distance and time accurately. she knows her own mass is 77.4 kg , but she is unsure of the mass of a large gas canister in the airless rocket. when this canister is approaching her at 3.50 m/s , she pushes against it, which slows it down to 1.30 m/s (but does not reverse it) and gives her a speed of 2.60 m/s . what is the mass of the canister?
