Figure 15-1 shows how a(n) breeze works.

The sea breeze is formed because during the day the surface of the land on the coast tends to warm up before and more than the surface of the sea. This difference in temperature between these two air masses means that on a sunny day the land warms up much more than the ocean causing a small area of low pressure.

Then, the air rises as the land warms it and the colder air located on the surface of the sea forms a high pressure zone that makes this air mass tend to occupy the space left by the warmer air that has ascended on the coast. Therefore, the mass of air of a high pressure on the ocean always tends to move towards the zone of low pressure located on the coast.

It is important to note that the sea breeze blows perpendicularly to the coast and that the best breezes are formed in the spring and summer seasons because during the spring the water temperature is still cold and during the summer the sun produces high temperatures over the land in the coast.

1 the 4 is sig

d₁ = displacement of tern from arctic to antarctic = 11000 miles

d₂ = displacement of tern from antarctic to arctic =   - 11000 miles

d = total displacement for the journey

total displacement for the journey is given as

d = d₁ + d₂

d = 11000 + (-11000)

d = 0 miles

t₁ = time of travel from arctic to antarctic = 3 months = 3 x 30 days = 90 days

t₂ = time of travel from antarctic to arctic = 3 months = 3 x 30 days = 90 days

t = total time of travel

total time of travel is given as

t = t₁ + t₂

t = 90 + 90

t = 180 days

average velocity is given as

average velocity = total displacement/ total time

v = d/t

v = 0/180

v = 0 miles/day
