1. When sewage treatment plants flood or debris reaches reservoirs and streams, the quality of the water is affected.

2. Storm surges cause beaches to shift and alter shape.

3. During flash floods, riverbanks erode.

A proton is projected into a magnetic field that is directed along the positive x axis. Find the direction of the magnetic force

bulgar [2K]

Te direction of the magnetic force for the velocity of the proton in the

-ve y direction will be +ve z direction.

As we know that the right-hand rule is based on the relation of magnetic fields and the forces that they exert on moving charges.When a charged particle moves under a magnetic field, it exerts a force on the particle, which is not in the same direction but different than the direction of the magnetic field.Under the right-hand rule, if we point our pointer finger in the direction of the charged particle is moving and the middle finger is representing the direction of the magnetic field then our thumb depicts the direction of the magnetic force which is exerted on the charged particle.

So, we are given that the direction of the velocity of the proton is in the negative y direction and the direction of the magnetic field is in the positive x direction, so the magnetic force is acting in the positive z direction.

Student 1 lifts a box with a force of 500 N and sets it on a tabletop 1.2 m high. Student 2 pushes an identical box up a 5 m ram

Troyanec [42]

The student who did the most work is student 2 with 2500 Joules.

Given the following data:

Force 1 = 500 Newton

Distance 1 = 1.2 meter

Force 2 = 500 Newton

Distance 2 = 5 meter

To determine which of the students did the most work:

Mathematically, the work done by an object is given by the formula;

$Work\;done = Force \times distance$

For student 1:

$Work\;done = 500 \times 1.2$

Work done = 600 Joules

For student 2:

$Work\;done = 500 \times 5$

Work done = 2500 Joules.

Therefore, the student who did the most work is student 2 with 2500 Joules.

Planetary orbits... are spaced more closely together as they get further from the Sun. are evenly spaced throughout the solar sy

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

E) are almost circular, with low eccentricities.

Explanation:

Kepler's laws establish that:

All the planets revolve around the Sun in an elliptic orbit, with the Sun in one of the focus (Kepler's first law).

A planet describes equal areas in equal times (Kepler's second law).

The square of the period of a planet will be proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit (Kepler's third law).

$T^{2} = a^{3}$

Where T is the period of revolution and a is the semi-major axis.

Planets orbit around the Sun in an ellipse with the Sun in one of the focus. Because of that, it is not possible to the Sun to be at the center of the orbit, as the statement on option "C" says.

However, those orbits have low eccentricities (remember that an eccentricity = 0 corresponds to a circle)

In some moments of their orbit, planets will be closer to the Sun (known as perihelion). According with Kepler's second law to complete the same area in the same time, they have to speed up at their perihelion and slow down at their aphelion (point farther from the Sun in their orbit).

Therefore, option A and B can not be true.

In the celestial sphere, the path that the Sun moves in a period of a year is called ecliptic, and planets pass very closely to that path.

Which space mission visited the moon several times?.

Ivanshal [37]

NASA’s Apollo Mission was the ONLY mission which landed humans on the moon, which it did six times. I’m not very sure about several times, though. Hope this helped!
