Most waves approach the shore at an angle. However, they bend to be nearly parallel to the shore as they approach it because when a wave reaches a beach or coastline, it releases a burst of energy that generates a current, which runs parallel to the shoreline.

  • Most waves approach shore at an angle. As each one arrives, it pushes water along the shore, creating what is known as a longshore current within the surf zone.
  • Waves approach the coast at an angle because of the direction of prevailing wind.
  • The part of the wave in shallow water slows down, while the part of the wave in deeper water moves at the same speed.
  • Thus when wave reaches a beach or coastline, it releases a burst of energy that generates a current, which runs parallel to the shoreline.

How long will it take you to travel 20 miles on a bus that drives 60 miles/h?
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

<u>20 Minutes</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

Well we know Mph (Miles per hour) is distance over time : \frac{distance}{time} \\

R (rate) = 60

d (distance) = 20

t (time) = Unknown

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 R = \frac{d}{t}  

   ↓

60 = \frac{20}{t}

   ↓

 t = \frac{20}{60}

    ↓

 t = \frac{1}{3}  or 0.3333

<em>So basically it would take one third of an hour. Lets change these units to minutes.</em>

60 * 0.333333 = 20

<em>So it would take you </em><u><em>20 minutes</em></u><em> to drive 20 miles on a bus that drives 60 mph</em>

<em />

Hope that helps

A ball is thrown directly downward with an initial speed of 7.65 m/s froma height of 29.0 m. After what time interval does it st
coldgirl [10]

Answer: 1.77 s

Explanation: In order to solve this problem we have to use the kinematic equation for the position, so we have:

xf= xo+vo*t+(g*t^2)/2  we can consider the origin on the top so the xo=0 and xf=29 m; then

(g*t^2)/2+vo*t-xf=0  vo is the initail velocity, vo=7.65 m/s

then by solving the quadratric equation in t

t=1.77 s

Consider three identical electric bulbs of power P. Two of bulbs are connected in series and the third one is connected in paral
Tamiku [17]

Answer: 3P/2

Explanation: Let the resistance of the bulbs be R.

now lets consider a Voltage V is supplied to the parallel circuit  such that

P=VI=V^2/R

V=IR

both single bulb( bulb 3) and the two bulbs ( bulb 1 and bulb 2) are provided the same Voltage

( as the voltage remains same in parallel circuit)

we can calculate the Current across both circuits

At Bulb 3

Current 1=V/R

Power1=Voltage * Current1

Power1=V*V/R

Power1=P

At Bulb 1 and Bulb 2

Total Resistance= R+R=2R

Current2=\frac{V}{2R}

Power2=Voltage * Current2

Power2=V*\frac{V}{2R} \\Power2=\frac{V^2}{2R} \\Power2=P/2

TotalPower=Power1+Power2\\TotalPower=P+P/2\\TotalPower=\frac{3P}{2}

Hey solution that contains all of the salute it can normally hold at a given temperature is
ankoles [38]

Answer:

A saturated solution

Explanation:

A saturated solution is one that contains the most amount of solute that can be dissolved in it at a given temperature

An example of a saturated solution is carbonated water, which readily gives off bubbles of carbon dioxide gas from areas within the solution to the region above the top surface of the gas in liquid solution

A saturation solution of salt in water can be created by continuing to dissolve salt in a given amount of water until it can no longer dissolve any more salt. However, heating the saturated salt solution, increases the amount of salt that can be dissolved.

Therefore, a solution that contains all of the solute it can normally hold at a given temperature is <u>a saturated solution</u>
