Which explains how air from the equator influences temperatures of land masses further north and south of it?

a.
sunlight absorbed at the equator warms the air above and causes convection currents that travel north and south to influence temperatures there.

b.
sunlight absorbed at the equator warms the air above and causes radiation currents that travel north and south to influence temperatures there.

c.
sunlight absorbed at the equator warms the air above and causes conduction currents that travel north and south to influence temperatures there.

d.
sunlight absorbed at the equator warms the air above and causes convergent currents that travel north and south to influence temperatures there.

Dying the folding patterns of protein molecules can microbiologists better understand cellular processes as well as some diseases, such as alzheimer’s, that are caused by proteins that have misfolded. the folding of these complicated molecules can be simulated on computers, but it takes a lot of processor power and time for even expensive supercomputers to do this. a group of researchers at stanford university developed software that can be used to distribute the processing of data to anyone who is willing to donate time on their idle personal computers. as a result, the researchers have been able to achieve protein-folding simulations that are far better than those other computing methods have done. which statement best describes the work of these researchers? the work is not scientific because the data are not processed in one location. the work is not scientific because the simulations are not reproducible. the researchers applied creativity to solve a problem in running an experiment. the researchers used only well-established scientific techniques.

Plz mark brainliest 30 points 1) find the momentum of a 12 kg snowball that is rolling with a velocity of 9 m/s. 2) an 8 ball with a mass of .5 kg is sitting at rest. it is hit by the cue ball (1 kg) traveling at 2.5 m/s. if the cue ball is at rest after the collision, how fast is the 8 ball traveling after the collision? 3) two football players are running toward each other. if the offensive player is 75 kg and is running 8 m/s, how fast must the 60 kg defensive player run in order for the two players to hit and stop?

Nitric acid can be formed in two steps from the atmospheric gases nitrogen and oxygen, plus hydrogen prepared by reforming natural gas. in the first step, nitrogen and hydrogen react to form ammonia: (g) (g) (g) in the second step, ammonia and oxygen react to form nitric acid and water: (g) (g) (g) (g) calculate the net change in enthalpy for the formation of one mole of nitric acid from nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen from these reactions. round your answer to the nearest .
